Did you see this bit from Charlottesville, Okra?
If you really are a Jew and you’re aligned with these people and totally not afraid of them, you’re a fucking moron.
*“Our booking team — and they’re good — reached out to Republicans of all stripes across the country today,” Smith said on his show “Shepard Smith Reporting.”
“Let’s be honest, Republicans don’t often really mind coming on Fox News Channel. We couldn’t get anyone to come and defend him here because we thought, in balance, someone should do that,” he continued.
“We worked very hard at it throughout the day, and we were unsuccessful. And of those who are condemning the president’s condemnable actions, I’ve not heard any prominent leaders, former presidents, members of the House or the Senate use his name while speaking in generalities,” he said.*
Oh but octopus is running from thread to thread claiming to be this great champion of people’s rights! I’m sure he’d be willing to go on Fox and stand up for Trump!
Trump didn’t want to come down so pointedly on Nazis that his disdain would splash onto his core of white supporters who were marching WITH the Nazis (even though they’re not Nazis). The man doesn’t have a principle in his being–everything is about votes, winning, staying “popular” with the people who support him. He really doesn’t care what anyone else thinks. What a loser.
If you think I am “aligned with these people” you’re a bigger moron than I thought.
Saying that there are two sets of violent hate-filled thugs battling it out in the streets in your idiotic minds somehow gets translated to “you’re aligned with these people”.
There was one set of violent, hate-filled thugs and a different set of people that opposed them. Some that opposed them might have been overzealous to the point of violence – that’s a bad thing, but it’s not nearly as bad as the actions of the white supremacists.
It’s entirely reasonable to judge people based on their words and actions. The words and actions of the white supremacists were much, much worse than the words and actions of those that opposed them, in general.
