McConnell releases statement....never mentions trump....chickenshit republicans

"The white supremacist, KKK, and neo-nazi groups who brought hatred and violence to Charlottesville are now planning a rally in Lexington. Their messages of hate and

bigotry are not welcome in Kentucky and should not be welcome anywhere in America," McConnell said in his statement. "We can have no tolerance for an ideology of

racial hatred. There are no good neo-nazis, and those who espouse their views are not supporters of American ideals and freedoms. We all have a responsibility to stand

against hate and violence, wherever it raises its evil head."
