    You didn't see this as "any violence is bad"?
    It's a wink and a nod to white supremacists.

    Those aren't cops...

    They aren't National Guard either.

    That is crazy.  It's even crazier that it is legal to do in your country.  That's messed up.
    It is crazy when you see it and no one gets hurt when they do it.  That amazes me.

    Too little and way too late. Fuck Trump and his nonstop bullshit.


    You guys don't think that after that condemnation speech has altered your perception of him a little?  I think it was a very great thing doing that.  Calling out those hate groups.
    No, doesn't change my perception of him at all. If anything, it's worse (if that is even possible). He showed his usual true self with his first statement. The only reason he made the second one was because he realized that his real statement caused a lot more backlash than his dimwitted brain could conceive at the time. it was damage control, pure and simple. Trump is WAAAAAAY beyond the point of redemption at this point.

    But you guys wanted/needed him to call out the despicable evil and he did.  How is that not redemption?
    Everyone has already answered this question.

    I'm just asking you specifically. The speech today was it bullshit or not?
    I also already answered.

    I think instead of making an immediate off the hip speech right after the tragic event happened would have been lost on so many.  No one cares what a politician says during an extreme time of hate/mourning/pain.  After a few days for everything to sink in and emotions a little ( I say a little) less heated the people who the message was intended for were in a better position to receive it.  You can't react to everything at every second and expect your message to be heard.  It's like people that constantly post in one thread.  Eventually people don't read them. So to answer no I don't think it was damage control.

    that's a great point!
    how is that a great point? his comments 2 days apart contradict each other. the first was obviously from his puny brain, the second was probably written by Ivanka. 

    I don't ever recall a sitting president saying nothing about a major event to "let the events sink in". 
    I think a politician talking a day or two after the event is a ok.  I mean fdr waited until december 8th.
    fair. but what about the "both sides" comment?
    Did you not see the video footage of the protesters attacking the supremacists?

    I was wondering where the police presence was.
    about 10 minutes ago watching CNN. I didn't honestly see any instigation from either side, all they showed was brawling that had already started. white supremacists punching women. how nice. 

    Brooke interviewed the former police chief of Charlottesville, and he said, while he is not in the know, so everything he says is pure speculation, he was confused as to why the protesters and anti-protesters weren't separated to begin with, and how a car was allowed on the premises at ALL, knowing how much pedestrian traffic there would be.

    Just throwing this out there.  When an incident happened here when Obama was president people crucified him for not calling it "radical Islam" when a Muslim carried out an act.  

    Where in Europe when an incident happened they labeled it a "radical Islam attack"

    Not that this was a Muslim/Islam matter but I can see it the same way as Trump not calling it out for what it was right away.

    a lot of white supremacists claim to be Christian. Maybe he should've said it was a radical Christian terrorist attack?

    You could spin it that way but it's not what I was getting at.

    There he just called out all those hate groups.  Is he still a racist?
    Yep, just named the KKK, Neo Nazis, White Supremacist specifically...Way better speech than Obama's dodging when BLM was setting Baltimore on fire...not that I'm a "trumpito" or anything.
    How do you know blm was setting fires?
    Um...Where were you last year???
    Were the people setting fires part of organized blm? 
    Power was there to check their BLM ID cards.
    They burn those too, evidently BLM and Antifa's go to is to burn up everything in sight.
    You're right, totally the same as Nazis and ISIS.
    Those are your words bub.
    Not this bub's words.

    "I'm not sure who disagrees with this.  Let's name some groups known for intimidation through violence:
    KKK
    Antifa
    Nazis
    BLM
    ISIS
    etc...
    They should all be named as terrorist organizations."

    I was pointing out another false equivalency in here.
