America's shame: America's Nazi-tolerant president:
Pick a Side:

There Is No Neutrality When it Comes to Nazis
White supremacists are emboldened. This weekend, they marched in Charlottesville, Va., a flashpoint because a confederate statue is slated to be removed.
On Saturday, James Alex Fields, 20, allegedly plowed his car through anti-fascist protesters, killing one and leaving 19 injured. Two police officers were also killed in a helicopter crash.
The president went on TV after the tragedy and pundits expected him to condemn white supremacist violence. He didn’t. Instead, he blamed bigotry and violence “on many sides,” and weirdly brought up former President Obama.
Needless to say, the neo-Nazi website, The Daily Stormer, was elated and announced Trump was on their side (“He loves us all.”)
Stephen Hayes/Weekly Standard:
Why Won't Trump Denounce White Supremacists? Why won't President Trump be as specifically and unequivocally critical of white supremacists as he is of the media?
Despite—or perhaps because of—Trump’s weak disavowals in the past, white supremacists still think Trump is, at the very least, open to them. At the rally on Saturday afternoon, David Duke said: "We're going to fulfill the promises of Donald Trump."
After Trump's remarks, Duke encouraged him to "take a good look in the mirror & remember it was white Americans who put you in the presidency, not radical leftists.” Other white supremacists are convinced that President Trump is more than just open to them.
The white supremacist Daily Stormer ran a liveblog of the Charlottesville rally and they positively celebrated Trump’s refusal to denounce them: “No condemnation at all. . . . When asked to condemn, [Trump] just walked out of the room . . . God bless him.”
President Trump built his reputation with tough talk and harsh condemnations people who earn his disapproval. That he refused to offer those things on Saturday is no accident. It's no surprise, either.

Trump is a White Nationalist. He will not unconditionally condemn them. He's busy "MAGA".
Trump's inability to unconditionally condemn the alt-right Nazis who marched in Charlotteville over the weekend confirms what we all suspected. Also, he'll fall even further in the polls, since I don't know many Americans who think Nazis are "quality" people, y'know, the kind that Trump said he'd place in his administration: Seb Gorky, Stephen Bannon, Stephen Miller, those sort of alt-right Nazis.
My fervent hope is that he continues his downward spiral. There surely are people who are hard core white supremacists but their numbers are small. The majority of Americans are at their center decent folks who find the display of white supremacist racism in Charlottesville revolting. These folks WILL prevail I think. Trump is an anomaly and soon will be gone.
RN... so where are those everyday people? Why are they not demanding a change in their leader? Where are the evangelical pastors who supported Trump? Why are they not calling him out for not denouncing Nazism?
Where are all those good folks who at their center are "decent folks" who will not publicly denounce a President who is quick to denounce Islam, but not Nazism?
The GOP and conservative America set the standard for behavior during the Bush Admin. Refusal or inability to publicly condemn terrorism and call it by name, is tantamount to agreement.
Les, the left did not invent the standard by which their actions should be judged, but shouldn't we expect the extremists to follow their own oft cited demands?
You and your 3 readers who are just as Nuts as you are, are getting to be SO Stuo that's it's no longer funny to read .. It's just getting to.be a joke .
Have you ever thought of committing suiside and making everyone else happy?
Here's the troll, "Mr. O'neil":
"...you are, are getting to be SO Stuo
Well, Mr. O'neil, you're the first person to criticize me for being "So Stuo!" I had hoped that my readers would have overlooked my Stuo-cism! But alas! you picked up on it, and for that I am truly astounded.
Mr. O'neil: "...that's it's no longer funny to read."
"That has" it is no longer funny? Or "that is it is" no longer funny?
Whichever of those phrases you meant, THAT IS FUNNY!
Mr. O'neil: "Have you ever thought of committing suiside and making everyone else happy?"
Whomever this "suiside" is, I'd be the last person to think of committing him/her/it.
BTW, have you ever thought of spellchecking your rants? Because that would make you look less of a fool.
Have a nice day.
I am not the spokesperson for the right. Nor am I the enemy of the left's Dave. I am a 65 year young man that works with and designs exercise programs for the 55 to 95 age group. I only know what I hear as I talk with folks. These folks have children and many have grandchildren as I do. Some have great grandchildren. We talk. My conversations lead me to believe we'll be okay.
But what do I know? I'm just a youngster after all. 😉
