Question for our Republican/wingnut friends:

Where are the conservative, Trump-supporting anti-racism protestors and counter-protestors?

Why were 100% of the MAGA hats marching alongside the Nazis instead of opposing them?

Trump stared directly at the camera when he said "on many sides". Message received.

What would happen if some people dressed up in tRump gear, went to a rally, got in the Nazis' faces, and asked why they are marching against tRump? I really wonder what the response would be. Confusion? Maybe they would scream that they are what tRump stands for. It would be great to get that on video. It's a dirty tactic, to be sure. However, the critical response would come from them, not from a disguised protester.
