Yep he made it clear how much he values the support of Nazis and other white supremacists when he went to great lengths to avoid specifically condemning them.

MCPO Roger Collins - Would have been easy for the President to condemn both the Nazi's and those among the counter protesters who were violent but he didn't. Even if there was no violence at all the Nazi's still would have deserved his condemnation. They are evil to the core and should be called out as such.

PO2 Robert Aitchison - That is kind of dumb, he condemned all those that are a disease on society, and there are many. Your suggestion that he should select on group is ludicrous.

PO2 Robert Aitchison - Not worth any risk, if he mentions them all by name, he gives them credibility in the eyes of their supporters. Obama made this mistake with BLM. No need to double down by naming ANTIFA, everyone already recognizes the KKK and the NAZIs so the only ones who would benefit would be the communist-anarchist ANTIFA

Cpl Joshua Caldwell - I'm not sure how the "antifa" people (who are even less organized than BLM) would benefit in any way by being denounced by the President. But I guess I'm not much of a mental gymnast.

If you really don't believe that the President was going out of his way to avoid specifically denouncing Nazis and other white supremacists and that he was doing so because he knows that these are some of his most ardent supporters then I don't know what else to say.

I heard this discussion on NPR and the White House Press person corrected that and included that. General McMaster also included that and saying it was terrorism.

He certainly hasn't invited them to the White House, like one "President" did with BLM.

MAJ Don Bigger - Are you referring to President Obama? Specifically the 44th President of the United States of America - Barack Hussein Obama? You mean that President?

Nazis are idiots. Period. Pretty much everything they think is wrong.

Nazis are closer to fascists than socialists. Kinda why they teamed up with fascist Italy to fight socialist Russia.
