Everything comes to those that wait ... unless it doesn't.


I understand, I remember being wrong before. It happens.

Trump is basically a mastermind at telling people what they want to hear. He has also gone on record as saying that there are 'nice' people in the KKK too.

Technically it was more than just the Klan. The Unite the Right rally was primarily organized by the League of the South (neo-Confederates), the Traditionalist Worker Party (neo-Nazis), Vanguard America (neo-Nazis), and the National Socialist Movement (neo-Nazis). These four groups make up what is known as the Nationalist Front.

It should also be noted that what Trump said is that there was fine people on both sides. Funny how he's only considering labeling Antifa as a terrorist organization.

Because you are lying about what Trump said. Trump said that there were people peacefully protesting the removal of the statue, and that is whom he said had fine people.

Can you source that so I can see what you are talking about?

Excuse me, excuse me. They didn’t put themselves -- and you had some very bad people in that group, but you also had people that were very fine people, on both sides. You had people in that group. Excuse me, excuse me. I saw the same pictures as you did. You had people in that group that were there to protest the taking down of, to them, a very, very important statue and the renaming of a park from Robert E. Lee to another name.


That's the exact quote.

Where did I lie?

He literally said:


you also had people that were very fine people, on both sides.


By the way, funny how you target on that and not the fact that the rally was organized by the Nationalist Front.

Perhaps you could highlight the tweet(s) you are talking about that made a person go out and shoot people in El Paso.

Where did I say a specific tweet or tweets made a person go out and shoot people in El Paso ?

Obviously you do care or you wouldn’t be ‘saddened’.

I'm saddened by what Trump is doing to America , I don't care because I don't live there so it doesn't effect me directly.



Like so many, you haven’t a clue what exactly Trump and his admin have done that is so bad.

Obviously I do because I along with others call him out for the bad stuff he does , you on the other hand seem not to have a clue like most Trump supporters.
Guess what ... it was the same with Nixon.

There were fine people on both sides. You are exposing the problem and sound like the media right now.

There are fine doctors and some who are not.
There are fine LEO's and some that are not.
There are fine teachers and some that are not.

What is so hard to understand about his statement. You cannot group people together based on a few. If that is the case, get every Muslim out of the US based on 9/11.

So you're saying that there are some fine neo-Nazis?

Yes, the FULL quote.

You had people in that group that were there to protest the taking down of, to them, a very, very important statue and the renaming of a park from Robert E. Lee to another name.


So you think it's impossible to protest the removal of the statue and be a fine person?

So anyone that everyone protesting the removal of the statue MUST be a neo-nazi?

Alright. So you agree that there are fine people in those that join protests connected to Antifa.

If a rally is organized by Antifa, would you consider anyone that attends as a member of Antifa?

What are they protesting and how are they protesting? If they are quietly and peacefully protesting the statue and want it gone then yes, some of them are indeed fine people I would imagine, wouldn't you?

Nope. Antifa and Neo-Nazis are a problem. Not all those on the 'left' side were Antifa. See how that works?

a reply to: Xcalibur254

If antifa protested something reasonable and someone showed up and was peaceful and did not join antifa in being violent why would they be a terrible person?

You are claiming everyone there is a nationalist front member, it's a lie.

Since we're talking about context of Trump's quotes:


"I would say that’s up to a local town, community, or the federal government, depending on where it is located."


The Charlottesville town council voted to remove the statue. That's why UTR was formed in the first place.

What does that have to do with you lying about what Trump said and who he was referring to?
