(6,137 posts)trump was extremely careful not to single out white supremacists which are his most loyal supporters and without whom he would have never been elected. Duke is trying to put pressure on trump to more openly embrace white supremacist groups so they can grow membership and power across the nation.

(9,426 posts)when they go after his Jewish son -in -law, and his Jewish convert daughter? Nobody had better touch his daughter/wife Ivanka. Beavis and Butthead already have their Nazi haircuts, so they fit in very well. I wonder if they were at this rally today?

Whatever deadly sin wheighs heavily on your conscience, the punishment is badly harsh.

(5,275 posts)These types are like cockroaches, they lay low until they feel it is time to come out in the open.
Make no mistake, Chitolini and some of the people around him has emboldened them.
Sinclair Lewis wrote a book in the 30s called "It Can't Happen Here.....showing that it could.
That Chitolini did not specifically condemn the White Nationalists/ Klan types tells you all you need to know.

(37,648 posts)but it doesn't seem so. They have a bizarre way of looking for validation anywhere they can get it. Trump was vague, all right. Trite. But I didn't think it was exactly confirmation of these dangerous people. He reeeeeally doesn't want to lose one vote, does he? It's all about him.

(30,741 posts)he was making a deliberate statement. He was validating them and making them look like victims and mainstream protesters at the same time. This is not good. They have been given the green light to do this in other cities. I think we will see many protests in many cities. We will see more deaths. In the past, these events would have been called race riots. We need to coin a new term right now to put the blame on the white supremacists, where it belongs.
We need to link trump to these and other future riots as well. We need to remind everyone of his past statements. He has said that he would pay legal fees and bail out people who got into trouble for beating up on people who protested at his rallies. We need to find every YouTube clip and throw it in his face. We need to tie him to his bigoted supporters at every turn. We need to get rid of the racist bullshit in this country once and for all.

(37,648 posts)I don't know what to think of this weird statement.
This is all too much. Can this be happening?

(51,593 posts)He can be impeached NOW for many crimes he already committed (don'the need to wait for Mueller to finish). The Cabinet could use the 25 Amend right now too!
We The People must get off our asses and go after this like we did with health care only bigger and stronger.

(60,071 posts)We are determined to take our country back, Duke said from the rally, calling it a turning point. We are going to fulfill the promises of Donald Trump. Thats what we believed in. Thats why we voted for Donald Trump, because he said hes going to take our country back. David Duke

(34,386 posts)will be well-attended. How else will he be able to delude himself into thinking that he's universally loved, adored, & worshiped? His lame ass words were most disgusting things I've ever heard. They didn't "unite the country", they consolidated his message of hatred.
