I will be the first to tell you all that Trump is at time very disappointing. Many of his actions, especially tweets and comments are troublesome, BUT, is he completely and totally to BLAME for Charlottesville. Both prior to the event, during the event and after the event?
While I am being honest with you, I'll also tell you that when we elected our first black president, I saw two scenarios coming forth. One was the good that this man could do in bringing together white and black America; the other scenario was Obama dividing the country and make the gap between blacks and whites even wider.
With that said, history will show the actual truths as to what is behind this recent flare up of racial tensions in America. Personally, I believe way too many Americans looked at the racial tensions and movement and new views that came out of the sixties felt that was the beginning of new relations in America. The melting pot was going to move forward without ever boiling over again. And now, with racial tensions at a fever pitch in our country, the bubble of a social, cultural "kum ba yah" has burst, and it seems that all that hard work in the sixties has come full circle and EVERYONE is in a full panic, IMHO.
So, with that said, where should the blame for what is happening here in America, right here and now, be placed? Was it Obama's cavalier attitude with personal bias towards several flash points like Ferguson, and New York? Is it Trump's failure to be presidential, and his lack of knowledge in the arena of politics? Or should the blame be laid at the lack of this nation's leaders to enforce immigration laws that are on the books, or their failure to pass new, more modern immigration laws?
Who and what do you see as being at the center of this flare up?
How much blame for civil unrest lays on Trump's doorstep???

What did the White House have to do with this? No matter what Trump said or did, the Democrats were going to criticize him in execution of Democrat political strategy on a daily basis.

No blame for President Trump. The blame for the Charlottesville violence follows this order: 1. The local Democrat authorities who did not have enough law enforcement available when they knew that violence could erupt. 2. The Antifa/Leftist crowd. The had no permit to counter-demonstrate, they should not have been there at all. 3. Governor McAwlful, who did nothing but inflame the situation with his rhetoric and lies. 4. The media who made things worse with their false reporting by trying to pin everything on the vile white supremacists who had the legal right as per the permit that was issued to them by the appropriate authorities to demonstrate.

Who were the armed, camouflaged men in Charlottesville who have nothing to do with the military?
Apparently these militia men came to protect free speech and were trying to keep the demonstrations peaceful and claimed not to be on any particular side.

Obama is more to blame than Trump. Many of his statements and actions were overtly racist and intended to divide and destroy the cohesiveness of the nation.
Not so with this president.
Sorry to see so called Christians here being used by George Soros and taking up his banner of hate and lies to get rid of Trump just like the evil racist thugs of BLM and Antifa.
It's all part of the plan to derail his presidency.
