he next to last question at Thursday’s wild news conference from President Donald Trump dealt with racism and antisemitism from Trump supporters, moments after Trump had brushed off a previous inquiry about the topic by calling himself “the least antisemitic person” one could find. “A follow up on my colleague’s question about antisemitism: It’s not about your personality, or your beliefs,” the reporter, who didn’t audibly name himself, explained. “We’re talking about the rise in antisemitism, some of it by your supporters in your name.” As he started asking if there are plans to deal with it, Trump interrupted.

“And some of it…can I be honest with you? And this has to do with racism and horrible things that have been put out,” said the president. “Some of it written by our opponents. You do know that. Do you understand that? You don’t think anybody would do a thing like that. Some of those signs are not from people who like Donald Trump. Some of the signs you’ll see are not put up by the people that love or like Donald Trump. They are put up by the other side. And you think it’s like…playing it straight? [shakes head] No. and some of that anger is caused by the other side. They’ll do signs and they’ll do…drawings that are inappropriate. It won’t be my people. It will be the people on the other side to anger people like you.

1. I love how folks always blame their racist supporters on a CT

[Angry Dragon]

3. I do not know what CT means??

[bravenak]

4. Conspiracy theory

[Angry Dragon]

7. thank you

[Angry Dragon]

2. republican SOP: blame the other side

he blames and has no facts to back up anything

[lark]

8. He never does.

It's always alternative facts with him. Even when he knows the truth, he just lies to make himself look good or to hurt others. That's how you know if he's telling the truth. If it's about something that will benefit him personally, you can be 100% assured that he will push that policy and it will happen. If it's something that hurts others, he's pretty dependable on making those happen too, if he can. Thankfully there's still a judiciary that's stopping his worst. If it's about anything else, something that would help other people like medical care, well, then you know it's a lie. Like having a plan ready to go to replace ACA or fight ISIS, from day one - total lies.

5. "...can I be honest with you?"

Let me take this one. No, you can't.

10. He's also saying....

I have been lying up to now, but now, can I be honest with you?

[rock]

11. So true

Else why ask the question? What a Maroon.

6. I remember

him saying he would pay the court costs of those who attacked 'minorities' who were not supporters. He told them to attack...so whether "professional agitators" or not...THIS pigshit racist told them to attack.

9. Here's something to ponder

Just because his daughter and her husband are Jewish, does not mean he isn't an Anti-Semite!


Even Hitler had Jewish soldiers, to include at least one general!

12. Strom Thurmond had a black daughter

and we know all about him and what he did and believed in and acted on.

13. Does that include all of the endorsements by hate groups?

Of course those hate groups that endorsed him aren't fake.

Moreover, what about all of those Trump supporters who were part of the tea party protests,
where racist signs were held? Were they fake, too?

[Earthican]

14. Like David Duke?

Wow, that is some crazy strategy! To think Duke has been a Democrat all these yesrs! 😁

15. He is projecting again.

[Blue Idaho]

16. Trump has made all sorts of outlandish claims...

They always turn out to be lies. Lies.
