Yet that doesnt explain why he was so deliberate in his response to Charlottesville, where clashes broke out during a neo-Nazi and alt-right rally in defense of a statue of Robert E. Lee, and a man with white-supremacist links allegedly murdered a young woman by driving his car into a crowd. In that case, Trump was slow to speak, and when he did, he condemned bad actors on all sides. That stunned many observers, who couldnt understand why Trump wouldnt draw a line between white supremacists and those opposing them. The following week saw a tortured series of Trump statements. He tried to clean up his initial remarks with a sober racism is evil statement, then delivered a blistering press conference saying there were very fine people on both sides.
Great graphic.
There’s one big difference
In Charlottesville, there were two sides faced-off against each other.
In London, it was very clearly ONE-SIDED
That makes “moral-clarity” very easy.
I thought SY deemed it a terrorist attack. Does Trump’s tweet identify them as Islamic? Don’t think so. He says terrorist.
These same creatures had no problem with Zero rushing to judgement and condemning the police before all the facts were known.
I thought Trump had moral clarity on Charlottesville: Both KKK and ANTIFA are wrong. It is the Atlantic that lacks moral clarity on ANTIFA.
Libtards can’t condemn violent Antifa.
Trump condemns all the violent lawless types of whatever beliefs.
That is “moral clarity” of which the left is incapable.
Exactly. One is a “clash” and one is an “attack.” When one side attacks first, you condemn that side. It’s not rocket science.
By an author who imho managed, while editor of the Duke University student newspaper, NOT to be greatly outraged by the railroading of three Duke students by Nifong; shut down comments on the paper’s website about the case immediately after it was ended; and appeared (again imho) to be bored stiff during Nifong’s bar trial, sitting in the back even as the mothers of the falsely-accused were quietly sobbing at hearing the testimony presented.
WHat is this writer talking about.
Trump had plenty of moral clarity regarding Charlottesville.
Screw em. They let returning ISIS guys back into England without monitoring even. People from the UK should have to get a Visa before they enter the usa at this point. No more Visa waiver
Not complex. The fake Nazis lead by the same old leftists agitators that led occupy came out with the expressed purpose of yelling some stuff through a bull horn. Antifa came out with the expressed purpose of starting a riot, kicking some ass and repeal the 1st amendment. The police forced these two groups of useful idiots together to watch them fight. Another day another elitist puppet show.

I find it odd that the press seems to get so confused about things that are so simple and obvious. Are they stupid or just trying to get people worked up?
I asked the editor of my high school newspaper, way back in 1970, about his op-ed pieces. He said he rarely presents his opinion. Rather, he presents an opinion that will create a response in people.
And here we are...
Great point.
Also, in Charlottesville, ONE side had a permit to be there. The other side came with the sole intent of causing violence. Furthermore, the police DELIBERATELY set them upon each other when they could have kept them apart.
All of the true leaders, talent, brains, and patriots in western europe died in world war II.
What is left is the dregs, the defeated, the fatalistic, and the invaders from east and south.
...because most of them and most of the MSM are closet Antifa cheerleaders.
I saw the video where it looks like someone hit his car prior to his running thru antifa. He might have been scared for his life. But there seems to be a new blackout on this guy and case. I wonder why?
is it possible that the Islamic attacks are always directed against peaceful people going about their daily lives, and the clash at Charlottesville was between two groups, one being the aggressor (antifa) and the other which was prepared to fight back if attacked.
There is a huge difference, the fact that the writer can’t or doesn’t want to admit there is a difference says a lot about him.
