Trump's Charlottesville disgrace: White supremacists aren't just another 'side'

To
elevate Trump’s deplorable, evil fringe as equal to the rest of us
united was extraordinary for a U.S. president — and nothing short of
vile.
President
Trump is not known for holding back his rage and venom when he’s
angered or feels threatened, or for struggling to “counter punch.”
Typically, the easily triggered leader of the free world, his finger
seemingly perpetually poised in hover position over the nuclear button,
uses a cannon when a BB gun will do. But, curiously, he seems to lose
his voice and his nerve when it comes to taking on Russian President
Vladmir Putin for intervening in U.S. elections, or the white
nationalists and Nazis — domestic terrorists — who marched with torches
in Charlottesville, Va.
Notice whom Trump tiptoes around to understand to whom he feels beholden.
So grow up and stop being a fucking dick, it's disgraceful
You are finally starting to see the REAL shit that is going on. Many people in your country have been teetering for too long and have reached a breaking point. One can only go for so long without being able to say what they want without fear of being censored.

So you are admitting that Trump gives voice back to the disenfranchised Nazis, white supremacists, and general racists?
I'm not complaining at all when I say this. I get called a dick and troll for even being perceived as having anything but hate for President Trump. It's a very odd feeling.
^^^ No. That shit was always there. Ignoring it does not make it go away.
Then please explain what you meant, because in the context of the conversation, your post and the one to which you replied, it seems that you are applauding the Nazis' new found victory over the censorship that society has imposed on them.
This is a serious topic and I don't think you want to be banned for shamelessly trolling it.

No, you get called a troll because you inject Trump into every topic with posts that only rarely make sense. You respond with unrelated posts that aren't relevant or even cogent and the clear intent is to flamebait, which is clearly stated as being against the forum posting rules. An example is when you posted this in the Concept of God thread: "I guess to put in context what god is as a non-believer through a believers eyes would be like trying to explain that President Trump is real and that many people believe in him. Yet so many don't and can't get that fact through some heads." It's trickier to strictly define such Trump trolling within the Trump thread, but the overall intent is clear, you enjoy the discomfort that most of us have with Trump, and you seek to increase and remind us of that comfort as often as you can. That is trolling.

Now I appear to applauding Nazis'. Good grief.
Perhaps if you took the time to write your thoughts out in a mature and thoughtful manner, and clarified your responses when asked, you wouldn't be in such a position. Any reader of the English language would have to be quite inventive and liberal in interpreting your post to mean anything else.

Yet you continue to post in a Trump thread to ensure that anyone else who does must hate the Donald.

So until I do I appear to be a dick, troll and a Nazi supporter. Got it.

Stop defending him.
This is Heather Heyer. She was killed by the Nazi who ran people over in #Charlottesville.
She died fighting white supremacy. Remember her.
And zero proof that President Trump caused this.
No. That shit was always there. Ignoring it does not make it go away.
No it's not. It is America.
Stop defending him.

Do we care that an innocent was murdered or do we continue to co-opt her death to vindicate our political beliefs?
People always want to blame someone for a mess. Trump did not cause what has been festering.
Now I appear to applauding Nazis'. Good grief.

But keep trying to justify your vote for Trump.

I'm being serious. Just because there were some people wearing Trump hats there does not mean Trump caused it. It was a good cover to hide under.
