    Update: Alliance for American Manufacturing’s Scott Paul stepped down from Trump’s council on Tuesday, Aug. 15.

    Corporate executives who lined up to advise President Trump, embracing his pro-polluter, deregulatory and anti-tax policies while ignoring other elements of his outrageous conduct and policy agenda, are having second thoughts.

    So far, three corporate executives (out of a total of 48) and a trade group exec have resigned from Trump’s advisory councils after the president shamefully delayed his condemnation of white supremacist violence after neo-fascist groups marched on Charlottesville, Va., and a marcher from Ohio allegedly drove a car into a crowd of peaceful demonstrators, killing Heather Heyer, an anti-racist activist, and injuring over a dozen others.

    The remaining 45 executives are sticking with Trump.

    there is a war on statues now. Durham "confederate statue" was torn down

    I'm not so sure that was a confederate monument more like a war memorial for the boys that wore gray.

    The boys in grey? The confederate army wore grey. Good, no more monuments honoring losers. Tear them all down, can't happen fast enough. 
    Baffles me how much liberals enjoy tearing things down and setting things on fire...oh the festering rage, hate, and anger that emanates from polar politics...
    Yeah and Nazis like killing people. What's you're fucking "whataboutism" point this time?
    Whatabout whataboutisms, can I coin that term.  My point is that they are both major parts of the problem and not "progressing" things at all.  I'm not excluding the far right, so I'm not sure why you keep getting so defensive....unless you are an Antifa idiot?
    Stop defending nazis
    You're blind...where have I defended Nazis?  You guys and your one narrow liners and narrow mindedness...where is the ignore again?  It's actually getting a bit comical.  Stop hyperventilating and defending the fascist "Antifa"!

    "There is never moral equivalence between Nazis and people who are against Nazis because one side are Nazis. To say that violence against Nazis is the same as violence by Nazis is saying it wouldn't have mattered who won the second world war." -Matt Haig

    "Bothsideism" is a bullshit paradigm invented by bullies in an effort to claim they are victimized by those who stand up to their bullying. Self defence isn't bullying. Defending someone else from attack isn't bullying.

    This is why we can't fall for this garbage Trumpism of "both sides are wrong". Because ONE side is simply fighting for their right to exist, their rights under the law. And the other side is fighting to retain omnipotent white dude power that should've never existed in the first place.

    Any suggestion that fighting Nazis with violence makes us guilty is the same as saying that WWII was about bullying Nazis.

    -Someone from Facebook


    Stop defending Nazis
    Stop quoting my comments with non-substantial repies...
    Then stop defending nazis. That should not require substance, they are nazis.
    Stop defending "fascist" Antifa
    Why are you lumping all groups in with white supremacists?

    Trump tweeted this this morning.  He deleted it after about 20 minutes (I think).  

    Wow.  Not very presidential.  After a woman was killed by a car this weekend.  

    President Excrement. 
    It's perception I guess.  What is the saying that Americans live and swear by - freedom of expression. The article describes it as hitting a person with a CNN logo for a head.  I see it as Trump pushing CNN and they can't stop him.  You can see his feet trying to hold the train back he is not being hit.

    Here is the background on it.  https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2017/aug/15/trump-retweets-alt-right-provocateur-after-condemning-white-supremacists

    Maybe he should act with a little more decorum and not an internet troll?  

    He talks of "making america great again"... at what point did "America" have this kind of thin-skinned child-like behavior from a President?

    The image itself doesn't bother me so much... it is that the President of the United States needs to be above "re-tweeting" that.  Try being profound.  Try showing some sign of leadership.  Try doing something.

    Heather Heyer ..
    The same Heather Heyer who the NAZIs feel like it would be a good idea to make their presence felt at her funeral?

    If you're not outraged, you're not paying attention.

    We get your point.  You're outraged.  Are you trying to get others as outraged as you as well?  You post more pictures of Nazis symbols and white supremacists than the press.  It feels like we are actually at a protest.

    They have their goals set really high, trying to one up the Westboro Baptist Church. The only thing that will do is take away from the services itself and possibly lead to violence. It would be nice if the media was banned or if they refused to film them, but we know that wont happen.

    It would be nice if they were met by the FBI, and rounded the fuck up.

    Don't bother with him. I don't reply to his posts and usually just skim over them.
