Trump stands by remarks on Charlottesville: ‘George Washington was a slave owner’

I have a question for all you scum bags in the press. Why didn’t all the ‘opponents’ of the rednecks stay the f*ck away during the rally in Charlottesville? Why? The right-wing extremists *ssholes could have had their day in the limelight, and then, you liberal *ssholes could have done the same as well. Fair game. The redneck *ssholes have their day to vent and the liberal *ssholes can counter with their own rally.

So, the answer is, it’s not about fair play. It’s not about the American way of life and free speech. It’s about the media (once again) trying to sway the mindset of the masses; which by the way is easy. The masses are stupid, emotional and ill-informed.

Hence, you win! You win CNN. You have the winning formula. Congratulations! Good for you! It’s a good thing (for you) that the masses are dumber than a door knob. That gives you the edge. People always root for the underdog, and Republicans aren’t it. It’s all about minorities (blacks, Hispanics and of course, Muslims). Yeah!!!

Just don’t call yourselves a news organization. You’re more like whores, you know, like the ones you call to your respective hotel rooms each week. We all know who you are… TGO

NEW YORK — President Trump appeared at his Manhattan skyscraper to deliver a statement on infrastructure on Tuesday and ended up in a heated debate with reporters over the protests and violence that took place in Charlottesville, Va., last weekend.

Trump said there was “blame on both sides” for the clashes, which involved white nationalists and neo-Nazis fighting against counter protesters. He praised some of the people who showed up to protest the removal of a statue of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee in the town as “fine people.”

Trump told Yahoo News the question of whether Confederate memorials should stay standing should be left up to local officials, and suggested that eliminating Confederate memorials would open the door to the removal of other historical monuments such as those honoring George Washington and Thomas Jefferson.

“George Washington was a slave owner,” Trump pointed out.

Charlottesville’s bloody weekend began Friday evening when a group of people protesting the Lee statue’s removal held a torchlit march at the University of Virginia. The group, which included prominent white supremacists and neo-Nazis, was marching as a prelude to a planned rally on Saturday.

The rally was preempted by violence that left three people dead, including two Virginia police officers who were killed in a helicopter crash while patroling the situation. Heather Heyer, a young woman who was with a group of counterprotesters, died after she was hit by a car that authorities say was driven by a demonstrator with Nazi sympathies. The president has not yet reached out to the woman’s family to offer condolences.

Trump was widely criticized for his initial response to the violence, in which he laid blame on both sides while avoiding any specific mention of white nationalism or neo-Nazis. On Tuesday, he called his reaction “excellent,” saying he was speaking without knowing all the facts. In comments Monday from the White House, he gave a more explicit denunciation of racism as “evil” and called out groups including the Ku Klux Klan.
