    You seem to simply equate winning with a civilian body count for some reason.

    Why should he? Black lives matters was also there stirring up their usual brand of racist violence.

    So, He condemned them all.

    Makes much more sense. Just one group was not responsible.

    He was the Commander in Chief. I don't want to hear it.

    He refused to use the term white supremacist. You've seen this argument play out here before with Obama and ISIS. Don't be an apologist now.

    Yes he did. That didn't go far enough, IMO. The guy that drove the car that killed the woman was a white nationalist.

    I don't know the full story of what happened today, but was there violence at this thing before "counter protesters" were there? Left wingers,as at Trump's inauguration,start smashing windows and setting fires without provocation. Right wingers protest, are attacked by leftists, and it's all their [rw's] fault, right? (or left?)

    If it was the fault of the left, you will never hear it from the media.

    Condemning them all didn't go far enough?

    At least he didn't excuse them, like Obama did blm

    Condemning violence from all sides committing it is a refreshing start. When he starts sympathizing with the perpetrators, you know, like the precedent that was set by the last guy, let us all know.

    Good to know. How do you know I stole your land and didn't honor your treaties? If you want to know who stole your land, look at the Suthreners you so admire.

    Back at you. You could have have a factual assertion, but that would have been too much trouble.

    And the innocent white supremacists have no culpability. What a surprise. Another apologist of the KKK. I guess personal responsibility is too much to ask for.

    Northern socialists? Good grief. It is amazing to see to what lengths some people will stretch to justify their opinions. The Southerners were free to start their own factories to produce cloth and everything else. But they didn't because they preferred owning slaves and dominating the poor whites. It was very profitable. Cry me a river.

    A white supremacist group released a statement saying that Trump's reaction showed he was on their side. (Note: their words not mine.)
