McCain, Romney, and Rubio Join the Republicans for Antifa Club
breitbart ^ | JOHN HAYWARD

Posted on 08/17/2017 3:18:04 AM PDT by davikkm

As James Bond’s nemesis Auric Goldfinger famously observed, “Once is happenstance, twice is coincidence. The third time is enemy action.” On Tuesday evening, three prominent Republicans — Senator John McCain, Senator Marco Rubio, and 2012 presidential candidate Mitt Romney — endorsed the left-wing media’s preferred narrative and embraced the masked thugs of Antifa as heroes. McCain and Romney used almost identical language, bending their knees to the media narrative that only two factions were present in Charlottesville during the awful events of last weekend: white supremacist Nazis and “Americans standing up to defy hate and bigotry.”

Neither of these gentlemen can claim ignorance of Antifa; the reason both of them piped up is that President Donald Trump mentioned them in his Tuesday press conference. Left-wing politicians and media personalities responded by thundering “there is only one side” for all right-thinking Americans to be on, because there was only one squad of villains on the ground in Charlottesville.

Aren’t we glad we dodged those three bullets? Three traitors who ran for President as Republicans.

Just taking care of business for the Uniparty of Criminal Government, simple as that.

Marco Rubio’s failure to condemn communists and the violence THEY brought to Charlottesville is a real disappointment. Rubio should know better since his family fled communists in Cuba. Perhaps the Rubios were among a small number Cuban communists who just didn’t get along with Castro and were forced to flee, now pretending to oppose communism but remaining still ideological marxists.

He was brain washed by Ho Chi Min(et al). ‘Like with a cloth?’

Absolutely right, PIF. Their endgame is ‘hate speech’ laws to muzzle the truth.

And the timing of these three 5th Columnists couldn’t be worse. They thought they had this won ...

Rubio was a patriot at one time and probably still feels it somewhere in his soul. But it will wither and fade.

Many patriots get either bribed or blackmailed when they set foot in DC.

It’s a morality minefield.

Antifa seems to have chosen their uniform... I humbly suggest a uniform for the opposition to all leftist thugs who stand against the right.

May God watch over all who oppose the rabid left, amen.

They have started this, God will finish it. Let us humble ourselves before God and pray for all who stand for his word and the constitution of the United States.

McCain, Romney & Rubio mean zilch. The vast majority of the average everyday Americans of all ethnic, religious and cultural stripes respect and fully support our POTUS, Donald J. Trump!!! Arizona, here’s a hint and suggestion, whether the forum that hosts the rally of POTUS, Trump next Tuesday holds 10,000 or 20,000 good folks, you good people should turn out at least 100,000 folks, and show the nation in total that our POTUS, Donald J. Trump is here to stay for a full eight years.

Charlottesville...a full blown setup, engineered, planned and executed, by none other then Democrat, Governor, Terry McAuliffe/the Democrat Party/the Biased Media, & America haters. Go POTUS, Donald J. Trump. MAGA!!! Soon, very soon, the real truth relative the Charlottesville massacre will surface for all of Americans to see and ponder.

Typical Leftist "thinking" - the scumbags who commit violence because they disagree with scumbags who are protesting legally and peacefully are far superior ......

These guys think they are smart and yet their pea brains can't wrap around some really simple concepts.

I guess if you were to ask them how often the KKK had committed violence over the last 20 years and how often the Leftists had, they would dive right in and tell us how the Leftists had a valid reason and therefore a right to hurt/maim/kill/destroy.

I have always considered Marco Rubio to be an identity politics placeholder of little substance, therefore his counterproductive crap doesn't irritate me as much as the other two.

McCain is why I broke permanently with the GOP and became an independent, and his perfidy has enraged me for a long time... the GOP never, EVER reined him in no matter how egregious his behavior, something which finally opened my eyes to the GOPe.

Romney is almost a caricature of country club Republicans: he inherited great wealth, increased it by looting sick companies, looks like something from a 1950's shaving cream ad, is awkward and ill at ease around anyone who does manual labor, and he wouldn't personally know a financial hard spot if it bit him in the ass and gave him a business card. A sharp enough operator, but a sold-out Mormon mafia globalist who has become a great weathervane as long as you always remember that he points in the wrong direction.

Tear down all the statues and memorials to those racist, bigoted, exclusionary, money-grubbing Mormon prophets and expunge their names in perpetuity, Mitt... then we can talk.

Every one should contact these idiots and call them out. They are behaving like gang rapists. They see all these nutcases piling on DJT,and decide like a gang rapist let me get my turn now. They are unbelievably sick,and very tone deaf. I have lost all respect for Marco who used to be great,now he is a crybaby loser.

These 3 MIGHT actually believe what they are saying, or they may be saying it just because they hate Trump so much that they are more then willing to attack him no matter what he says or does.
