On one side there were Nazis and on the other side there were no Nazis and Trump still came down on the wrong side. #charlottesville

From Helen:
Margaret,  several people have asked me why I haven’t been writing. The truth is, honey, this isn’t funny anymore.  Our President… scratch that…  the moron currently occupying the White House just equated George Washington to Robert E. Lee.  He can’t understand why a memorial to the symbolic founding father of our country is different than a memorial to a general in an army that fought a failed rebellion against our government.

Mr. President, with no respect intended, I implore you to please step down.  You are not qualified for the position you now hold.  Quite frankly, you are not qualified to be much more than a reality TV star, a position I hold in very low regard by the way.

There is a reason that in Germany you will find no statues of Hitler, no monuments to the Third Reich, and no Chancellor of Germany suggesting there was blame for World War 2 on both sides.  And there is a reason that Robert E. Lee himself didn’t want statues honoring the Confederacy.  In his own words, “I think it wiser not to keep open the sores of war but to follow the examples of those nations who endeavored to obliterate the marks of civil strife, to commit to oblivion the feelings engendered.”

Mr. President, you joked recently that you might one day be on Mount Rushmore.  I wonder at times what color the sky is in your world?  Are you really this stupid?  How in God’s name did you become the leader of the free world?

No, Mr. President.  There were not many sides in Charlottesville.  There were just two. Right and wrong. There were white supremacists on one side and Americans who believe all people are created equal on the other side.  There were hate groups and there were Americans who oppose hate. There were neo-Nazis and… Do we really have to go beyond that? Isn’t that what we call a non-starter?  There were Nazi’s, you stupid piece of shit, and still that wasn’t clear enough for you?  Really?  You couldn’t even get this one right? On one side there were Nazis and on the other there were no Nazis, and you still came down on the wrong side?

Read the rest. Margaret and Helen tell it like it is. https://margaretandhelen.com/2017/08/16/on-one-side-there-were-nazis-and-on-the-other-side-there-were-no-nazis-and-trump-still-came-down-on-the-wrong-side-charlottesville/

1. Amen!

[sheshe2]

3. agreed...

Aaaamen, aaaamen, aaaamen...amen, amen.

Luv ya.

[Warpy]

2. Bill Moyers said it best

"He doesn't have a soul, he has an open sore."

[sheshe2]

4. Moyers nailed it with that one!

Amen.

[calimary]

8. The problem with that is - an open sore can spread toxicity far and wide.

If it's open, it's often oozing and virulently infectious. And it's FAR from healed, or even just healed over, surface-only.

One way or another, it sure does nail trump.

[Warpy]

13. He compulsively picks at it so it will never heal

He's a sick, sick individual.

[Warren DeMontague]

10. Yeah

Thats it on the nose.

5. Right on.

Very well-said. Thank you.

6. "There were Nazis, you stupid piece of shit, and still that wasnt clear enough for you? Really?"

BRAVO!!!!! Problem is, Trump is one.

7. Really gotta love Margaret's response:

"Helen, dear.  I know I’ve lived too long that when given the choice between dinner with the President of the United States and dinner with Sarah Palin, I would gladly ask Sarah to pass the peas.   And I don’t even like peas."
