“threatening to undo any goodwill the president received”

Darn, I missed that. Must have been that millisecond when I blinked.

[Bodleian_Girl]

The journalist on TWITTER asked the Democrat Governor Terry McAuliffe to condemn leftist & Antifa violence and the governor refused to comment.

"Live from Twitter."

[Sacajaweau]

Dontcha hate it when the President is right....again.

[fortheDeclaration]

He won’t be intimated.

[Timpanagos1]

Both sides at that protest are political garbage.

Trump pissed off NBC?

Makes me like him even more!!!

[dforest]

They try to make it sound like Trump would have gotten some good will from them.

What a joke.

[KeyLargo]

I am so proud of OUR PRESIDENT!

Thank GOD for Donald J. Trump.

President Trump gave it right back to the media in Spades!

[Yogafist]

Did anyone see any of the neo-nazi protestors with their faces covered?

[who knows what evil?]

He DID mention that the initial protestors were peaceful...just folks that wanted to protest removal of Lee’s statue. It got violent when the LEFT (AntiFa, BLM, and so forth) showed up. SOME posters here at FR can’t seem to get that thru their thick skulls.

Good point...I watched the video from Friday night (the one where they marched with tiki torches)...I didn’t see any masks.

[Bodleian_Girl]

I didn’t.

Only the Antifa’s and BLM’s wore hoods and masks.

[Buckeye McFrog]

Trump got no goodwill from the backpedal. They tripled-down on the abuse. So he decided “eff this!” and has gone back to his instincts.

[mrsmith]

The media should be fair and pay David Dukes.
He’s their #1 Trump commenter.

[Williams]

Damn straight.

[Sarah Barracuda]

He then equated the white supremacists on the right to the “alt-left.”

Yeah well NBC, what’s the problem..they are BOTH despicable..actually Antifa is WORSE..those white supremacists are a small fraction of this country..I can count on my hand how many of them actually exist, meanwhile Antifa is all over the country..every state has at least one group of those cockroaches

[magna carta]

Yep-I still am looking into the facts. There is much more to learn. THAT was indeed the correct thing to say. That’s how the #SorosSupremacists back us into a corner every time.
So the FOX SPECIALISTS are working hard to push the term “White Nationalists” like good little lemmings. That guy Ben is all in with Kat & Kennedy & Eboni in taking down Trump.
It is so stunning, the whole time with some schitzophrenic dude in jail off his meds and Confederate relics being obliterated willy nilly around the country and everyone competing on the number of “WHITE ______ “terms they can broadbrush patriots with.
