What nobody is saying about the basketball players whose father dissed Trump,

after he got their arrests in China nullified, is that Trump has enabled white supremacy. Does he really think there are no consequences to saying 'some are good people' about Nazis? He was slurring 1/3rd of the people in the country when he said that. Does he not understand? He has made it impossible for most of the country to show him support. It was a bridge too far. No self respecting liberal can sit with giving him congratulations. He should get the Pentagon to explain it to him. He is not doing one offs. Everything is connected in politics. In business you can move on to the next market or deal. Not in governing a country. Why most of the mainstream charity balls that used to take place at Mar lago have gone elsewhere since Charlottesville. They have been replaced with republican oriented events. Trump seems to accept that protest without tweeting.
