Did Obama ever disavow leftist groups BLM and Antifa's violence?

This is the most ignorant virtue-signaling bullshite I have ever heard - and it seems to be a constant space-filler in every political reaction to every real or imagined grievance.
Our strength comes from the diversity of SKILLs and OPPORTUNITY and IDEAS - not from the diversity of fukcing SKIN COLOR - that is pure bullshite and I am sick and tired of having to endure the constant bleating of this nonsense.

This has nothing to do with Charlottesville.
This has everything to to with Trump re-negotiating NAFTA this week.
The Merck CEO does not want his corporate profits hurt. He wants to ensure that Americans don't pay low Mexican and Canadian prescription prices.
He wants the federal government to continue to protect his high drug prices in the U.S.
It has nothing to do with Charlotteville and everything with protecting his profits. Follow the money.

Now that Ken Frazier of Merck Pharma has resigned from President's Manufacturing Council,he will have more time to LOWER RIPOFF DRUG PRICES!
goddammit - This is the kind of absolute bullshite nonsense that I knew we would get from a POTUS Trump - why I was so adamantly opposed to him during the primary.
GODDAMMIT - does he have a brain that is not fueled exclusively by personal pettiness?
ALL I want is a functional POTUS who is NOT HRC or any DEMOCRAT. I will support THIS asshat because he has some great people around him - if he would just sit back and let them speak.
SHUT THE FUKC UP trump - you are the worst spokesman I have ever seen in my LIFE.
GROW A PAIR you sissy-assed braggart.

has resigned from a presidential council in a direct response to President Trump's remarks about "many sides" being to blame for violence over the weekend in Charlottesville.
So if there's only one side that's in the wrong he must have no issue with ANTIFA then.
Good to know

Diversity is not just skin color. Too many people read it that way.
Race is a human social invention.

Time to boycott Merck guys

I have zero fricks to give about Merck's CEO quitting this council.
Posted on 8/14/17 at 8:49 am to Toddy
Seriously, what is wrong with saying "many sides". That is the truth.

Why not focus that anger in the direction it should be focused. Are you suggesting that Ken's intentions were pure in joining the council and his reasons for quitting the council were pure?
Why shouldn't he be called out for it?
It's going to get a hell of a lot uglier before it ever starts to get better.

Wow someone on this board uses the logic of following financial motivations over the common fake emotional propaganda! Pretty rare for this board of idiots. Congrats on being an intellect.

I don't give a shite about the council - or who is or isn't on it - or why they resign.
I care about our fukcing POTUS caring enough about it to make an arse out of himself - again - with his fukcing twitter bullshite.
This is maddening to me -
I am going to go out and play with the dogs and pick up fallen dead wood and mow the yard.
see ya'll later
watching this nonesense unfold is driving me crazy.

So just to be clear...
It is being suggested that a Black CEO is being called a liar because some people don't believe he really had an issue w/ Trump's handling of the Charlottesville terrorist attack.
