Quick Question for Republicans ...

I’ve heard you state repeatedly that when Trump made his infamous ”very fine people on both sides” statement, he was talking about those who were for-or-against the removal of Confederate statues.

If that’s the case, can you please explain what chanting ”Jews will not replace us!” has to do with Confederate statues being removed?

TIA.

... some Republican spokes-whore trots out this 'defense'. I just wish some TV host would ask that simple - and oh-so-obvious - question.

that I just have to turn it off and go for a walk or something. I have really low blood pressure and, at this point, I don't know why after witnessing the daily destruction campaign before my very eyes. It challenges our sanity.

He was perfect in his explanation, he was completely right, and he’s a God. He cannot do wrong.

Anything that you try to understand is beyond understanding.

He is beyond all of us, and reason has no place.

We must listen and believe HIS words, because even Lindsey Graham, friend of John McCain, for decades, who Trump hates, bows down to him, so we all must do so. He, Trump we must worship.
