How Obama Handled An Attack By A Racial Nationalist
dailycaller ^ | Scott Greer

Posted on 08/15/2017 5:08:33 PM PDT by davikkm

President Trump is still facing a torrent of criticism for his responses to the Charlottesville violence.

After calling out the hatred and violence from “many sides” on Saturday, Trump finally did what the media demanded and condemned white nationalists and other hate groups by name.

Yet, that wasn’t good enough for the chattering class, and the new denunciation is not winning the president any goodwill.

While it’s certainly true the president could have articulated a better message over the weekend, his administration is taking a very hard line on the Charlottesville violence. The Department of Justice is launching a civil rights investigation into the matter and Attorney General Jeff Sessions described the car attack that left one woman dead as domestic terror.

But the president continues to be barraged with accusations that he’s basically letting white nationalists get away with murder. In light of the criticism against the current president, it’s worth remembering how the previous president dealt with an act of domestic terror committed by a racial nationalist.

If say....Liz Warren were drawing and Donald threw her a rope, she would try to drown first, then demand that he rethrow a different rope, one that is pink instead of gray, and that Trump have a female throw it to her before she grabs it. And then when she is finally brought to shore, she would fault Trump for the rescue taking so long, and the press would repeat her story over and over.

We live in a world filled with fake news that is lying to the people and causing them to riot and kill each other. It may be time to shut down the MSM, by force and hold the political leaders accountable by citizens arrest. The time for voting has ended.

Give them an inch and a mile is NOT enough. There can be NO appeasement of the left. We have been giving in to the left for decades and see where we are today. One of the reasons President Trump’s election is to put a STOP to this crap.

Exactly! I wish President Trump would have told the media today, that if they want to be investigative journalists, they should investigate the funding & organization of antifa.

Handled an attack?

Looks like 0 probably was involved in planning the attack by managing both sides.

Problem-reaction-solution. Create the problem, demonize your opponent, impose the solution.

Classic Alinsky/Soros/Obama tactics.

The #AltLeftMedia demanded that Trump name names so he did...

“What about the 'alt-left' that came charging at, as you say, the 'alt-right'? Do they have any semblance of guilt?” Trump said. “They came charging with clubs in their hands,” he said of the counter-protesters.

Let us complete the lead sentence:

“President Trump is still facing a torrent of criticism for his responses to the Charlottesville violence by the neo-Nazi, racist media.”

There can be NO appeasement of the left.

If you need any further proof that the Russia thing is phony and going nowhere, just look at the caterwauling the past few days by the Left. This is their next gambit, although it is probably more about keeping their base angry and energized for the mid-terms. The problem for them is that they are angering the other side in the process, so this might not be the best way for them to get an advantage.

Antifa is an absolute joke. Skinny fat limp wristed punk kids who can do nothing but antagonize. Problem is they are well funded and they have the media in their corner. Also they have no jobs while the rest of us do so they can engage in this behavior pretty much around the clock.

If a certain segment of the American population was just allowed to take its gloves off for 48 hrs, we would absolutely find, track down, and eliminate every vestige of Antifa by just scaring the shit out of them. We ain’t coming with silly string or plywood shields either.
