Please tell me where in Trump's rant he endoorsed the alt-right crazies???

IN YOUR OPINION, did you hear Trump give the alt-right kooks a free pass and glowing endorsement?

  • Yes, without a doubt he endorsed them and gave them a pass ...

    Votes: 1 11.1%
  • No, if anyone heard an endorsement or free pass, it is merely wishful thinking and MENTAL GYMNASTICS

    Votes: 8 88.9%

Trump Defends Initial Remarks on Charlottesville; Again Blames ‘Both Sides’

I decided to use the NY Times Link/coverage on Trump's confrontation with the press/media on Tuesday where he blamed both sides, and I would love someone, or as many someone's that want to jump in here, to explain how Trump's words could be construed as endorsing the alt-right KKK and white nationalists?

I just don't hear that endorsement, and I am actually open to your views as I'd love to have as many explanations as possible break down his sentences and words that led to this claim that he gave he radical right kooks and nuts a free pass!

Didn't Trump say "there were fine people on both sides"? Are the neo-Nazis, KKK, and the White Supremacists,
fine people? You think Trump is GREAT! The Country is deteriorating because of him. Think what you will. I'm not going to debate you--neither of us is going to change the other's mind!

He did not mean that the KKK was fine people, he meant there were fine people there on both sides of the issue of removing the statues. Not everyone who was there to protest the removal was KKK.

Wow. Just wow. It was a planned white supremacist event. If you are there with them then I would question the company you keep. If you are with them you aren't a good person. Get some perspective for crying out loud.

Can you not see then that you are enabling the Nazis by condemning those who are against them?

I predict all this is ultimately going to bring your precious far left radicals under the scrutiny that's been needed for a long time now. It's an eye opener and thought provoking, and Trump will be recognized for his courage in standing up to the mindless political correctness herd mentality that threatens our very freedoms. Bash him all you want. I think he has the guts that been seriously lacking on the Republican side, and, I think it's going to 'catch on'.

The fat lady ain't sung yet. In fact, it's just the beginning. This is exactly what we should expect when an outsider takes on the establishment.

Heh, I really doubt you're lying if you're a anti-abortion Christian socialist. You wouldn't be on the Nazi/WN side, since it's a really not a very Christian-like philosophy, to put it mildly, and they were all pro-choice for any non-white non-German and you can't be Antifa if you are pro-life and a Christian - they are VERY rare in that group. Socialism AND fascism is a polar opposite of anarchy.

What I would disagree with on is that the KKK is more of a threat than Antifa, at least right now - Antifa has the numbers and the MSM . But you are in the UK, the terms "left", "liberal", right", "conservative" mean different things than here, and I would put myself on the right side of this spectrum but no way KKK or Nazi- the thing I've always heard is conservatives in Europe value equality, whereas here, it's on freedom.

I heard on talk radio today where Trump errored. The Communist complaining about him said "its not what he said, its the fact we know what is really in his heart."

We need to go dig up Hoover and let him round up all these Commies.

And if you were there on the side of ANTFA, perhaps we should question the company you keep. If you were there with them, then you might not be a good person. You see, what you say goes both ways.

So you see why the Presidents words were troublesome then?

And who represents the "pink-0s" in the latest body politic?

Do not forget: there are at least 1056 shades of gray, probably many more.

We are getting near the time for theocracy--Jehovah of course. We are not ready nor watching.

Even so, come, Lord Jesus.

If the victim, Ms. Heyer is one of those Trump called "good, well meaning folks" then that means he was right on! There were some folks there to simply state their opinions and views, and not cause a rumble.

Those who caused the rumble, some 300, if you are to believe the LEOS, were the scum Trump referred to. The thousand or so, were mostly, and note I said MOSTLY, caught up in the fray. There is no evidence that Ms. Heyer and others were there to join in the fisticuffs!

So to the media and Trump haters, if Trump was wrong and there was no one there with good intentions,
then the victim, Ms. Heather Heyer
deserved to die because she was there to be part of the confrontation that led to violence.

You can't have your cake and eat it too!

All of us here are, I hope, anti fascist by definition as Christians. What else is there to argue about?
Apparently if being anti-fascist by definition as Christians makes you blind to other wrongs..

Your stance is that to stand against one wrong means you advocate another? That's just silly. Christians should stand for Christ. They should oppose evil, whether it is one side or both sides.

I am standing against evil as a Christian and that means I am anti fascist. Period. How about you? Are you standing against evil and being true to for Christian calling or are you going to give evil a free pass?

Alright, PERIOD! You're pro-communist, pro-islamist, pro-murder, pro-ANYTHING as long as you're anti-fascist. SNIP

Are you standing against evil, yes or no?

Islamism is fascist so I am against that too, for the record. Also for the record, I have condemned those hotheads using unsolicited* violence already.

*As opposed to bravely defending themselves and others against gun toting Nazi thugs.
