The various paeans from neo-Nazis and white supremacists to their Glorious Leader, Emperor Orangeanus Microdigitus, say all that need be said.

Vice has a video up. I made it 8 minutes in before I couldn’t take watching further, but up to that point it was worth watching.

Apparently… the Nazis and the KKK do.

The weapons employed by the anti-rally were of the improvised sort, and at least one person has said he used something thrown at him by the rally guys.

The Nazis showed up in body armor with guns. Even if their opposition showed with sticks I mean, really -\* they’re bringing sticks to a potential gun fight.\* There’s no way the two sides are the same things at all.

Well, one of the alt-righters DOES condemn Trump in very strong terms.

He condemns him “for giving his daughter to a Jew”.

“When Maple Street sends its monsters, they’re not sending their best. They’re not sending you. They’re not sending you. They’re sending monsters that have lots of problems, and they’re bringing those problems with us. They’re bringing guns. They’re bringing clubs. They’re racists. And some, I assume, are good people.”

Except for-real Nazis would support “UHC”, so besides nationalities, these groups are pretty much on the same wavelength. Indeed eugenics and progressivism have a history perhaps you should be learning.

Believe me, you are much closer than I am to Donald Trump and the GOP on basically every policy consideration.

Okrah? Is that the mirror universe Oprah? A fat white trash woman in Sallisaw who broadcasts on UHF from her trailer?

They’ve been on this path for almost forty years. They’ve been fighting a rear-guard action to turn back Civil Rights and Equality for Women, the whole time. They abandoned any decency or honesty in the fight when they set out to destroy Bill Clinton.

This, here, was always the GOP’s destination, even if the cool, cool, considerate men thought that they would be the ones in charge. That’s why none of them are taking any real steps to destroy Donald Trump. Anyone of the Republicans who would have a major problem with this has already left the building.

No doubt Alex Jones will be there with his bullhorn. But which side will he take? Maybe he’ll stand smack-dab in the middle and declare both sides to be part the same false-flag opeartion.
