Neo-Nazis and White Supremacists applaud Donald Trump's response to deadly violence in Virginia'Trump comments were good, He didn't attack us. When asked to condemn, he just walked out of the room. Really, really good. God bless him,' says white nationalist

Neo-nazis have applauded Donald Trumps response to the violent clashes between white supremacists and anti-fascists which swept Charlottesville and left three people dead.
The US President has refused to condemn the actions of the neo-Nazis, skinheads, and members of the Ku Klux Klan who descended on the Virginia city on Saturday yelling racial abuse, brandishing flaming torches, carrying assault rifles and wearing paramilitary clothing.
Speaking from a stage in a golf clubhouse, President Trump decried violence on all sides rather than explicitly taking aim at far-right extremists.
The founder of Daily Stormer, an American neo-Nazi and white supremacist site which considers itself to be part of the alt-right movement, hailed the fact President Trump outright refused to disavow the gathering of white supremacists.

It's a mutual admiration society.

(28,270 posts)2. Yup
Of course their fuhrer refused to condemn them.
Its more than a little disingenuous of these various republican and media voices decrying Trump's response to the right wing terror attack in Charlottesville.
His whole damn campaign was fueled on white rage, violence and racism. He will never turn his back on the nazi/KKK that back him.
That's his hardcore 30% or w/e. Without them he will be impeached tomorrow!
And wtf were all these news media outfits when the Trump white power rallies were happening across America?
Trying to normalize and cover up the hate, that's where!
