President Trump Explicitly Condemns Extremist, White Supremacist, Neo-Nazi Groups At Charlottesville

A White House spokesman told the media on Sunday that President Donald Trump expressly denounces[1] all extremist groups, including white supremacists and neo-Nazis.

The spokesman said:

“The President said very strongly in his statement yesterday that he condemns all forms of violence, bigotry and hatred and of course that includes white Supremacists, KKK, neo-nazi and all extremist groups. He called for national unity and bringing all Americans together.”

Trump, of course has been the target by the biased and out of control media, was widely and with no exceptions made to blame for Saturday’s mass mowing down of ‘anti-fascist’ (not really) activists, who were protesting a white supremacist rally. They blamed Trump for not specifically calling out and condemning white supremacist groups and also called out members close to his inner circle, particularly former White House communications director Anthony Scaramucci, who had his own thoughts on what the President said:

“I wouldn’t have recommended that statement. I think he would have needed to have been much harsher.”

Trump made his statement from New Jersey, referring to the Charlottesville rally as an “egregious display of hatred, bigotry and violence on many sides.” For many political observers, the president’s response to the attack just wasn’t enough to justify their anger — as it would seem an alt-righter allegedly smashed a car through a group of Antifa protesters, killing 1 woman and injuring around 19 others.

Scaramucci, acting as if he was some the moral authority on the matter, critiqued Trump’s response:

“With the moral authority of the presidency, you have to call that stuff out.”

One of the leading progressive RINO’s to come out with their own opinions on Trump, GOP Sen. Orrin Hatch, had this to say:

“We should call evil by its name,” said on Twitter. “My brother didn’t give his life fighting Hitler for Nazi ideas to go unchallenged here at home.”

GOP Sen. Cory Gardner, along with Sen. Ted Cruz and others, had urged Trump to announce the incident as an act of terror.

“Mr. President – we must call evil by its name. These were white supremacists and this was domestic terrorism.”

The Republicans are making the right calls, but it won’t matter to the left. This was the perfect tragedy to push through their anger filled rhetoric and no matter what happens, they are not going to let this go to waste – they’re going to pin it on the right and that’s that.
