Drudge Dumps Trump After Charlottesville Riots and Deadly Racist Attack
The Gateway Pundit ^ | August 12, 2017 | Jim Hoft

Posted on 08/12/2017 7:42:06 PM PDT by Trump20162020

It’s been a little over 200 days since Donald Trump was sworn in as president.
The president has been under a constant media assault since he first stepped into the Oval Office.

The media attacks have been constant, brutal and often fictitious.
But it now looks like he has lost Matt Drudge.

The Drudge Report headline on Saturday reads: “Make America Hate Again”.
Obviously, Drudge is pushing responsibility for Saturday’s race riots and deadly assault on President Trump.
It took six months for President Trump to lose his most influential supporter.
This is a very sad development.

In MacAuliffe’s Virginia the certified Republican who felt trapped and endangered while in his car will be tried for murder and will be ballyhooed as an Alt Right White Supremicist NAZI. They have to jail and try him now to support their story. The facts will not stand up on appeal and may not stand up in the first trial. If he “gets off” then we have to listen to the shrieking about White Man’s Justice and how the racist judge let him off. There is collateral precedent for this in several other incidents wherein a motorist caught in a street/highway blocking riot was let off or not even arrested for doing what he had to do to get the hell out of there.

Too many assumptions being made here.

Matt should speak up and tell us where he’s at regarding President Trump.

“Obviously, Drudge is pushing responsibility for Saturday’s race riots and deadly assault on President Trump.”

That is exactly what I thought when I first read the headline and it is true. Drudge the Sludge has been a never Trumper for some time now and it shows big league. I wonder how much the Washington Compost is paying him for linkage? Can’t blame the fool for taking the money, but from the Compost? Give me a freaking break! Conservatives hating on Trump is big business now, just ask Flake, Sykes, Kristol and now Dopey Drudge. Notice how his hits have taken off since the Trump bashing began? He is nothing more than a opportunist with zero integrity!!!

I also interpret “Make America Hate Again” to be a direct riff. It’s a slogan used by liberals when calling us racists.

Do you know the background of what occurred? This was peaceful (and legal) until the leftists showed up - and those white guys have freedom of speech.

What utter nonsense on the authors part

Drudge isn’t blaming Trump.

Lordy you people who are keeping score and deciding who is on trumps side and who isn’t are annoying. The yobs who decided to get violent is exactly who Drudge and everyone else should be blaming

Suggesting that drudge’s use of a clever headline is anti trump is somewhere out in Alex jones land

It was an easy call to denounce torch-bearing Nazis and white nationalists. Trump’s stubbornness got the better of him.

Was he to ignore the hammer-and-sickle flags that are clearly visible with the counter-protesters?

When the left denounces their rent-a-mob’s symbols of hate, then Trump can denounce those of the extreme right. Otherwise, this was just an exercise in free speech by Americans entitled to do so.

I'm similar though. When you tell me how and when I have to say XYZ... that's the last thing I'm going to want to say, even if I agree with it. I'll go more general, and leave it at that. We old farts are allowed to be stubborn like that. ;)

Saw it coming with his half attempt at posting O’Keefe vids. Didn’t have the last one and only showed the others for a few hours rather than just getting pushed down the page like the msm stuff, 2-3 days.

The Gateway Pundit would post their mother’s autopsy pictures if they thought it would get them another 100 clickbaits.

It’s all BS.... and this is one of 100 GP living proofs there is as much Fake News on the right as there is on the left.

“Yes, he denounced all violence and hatred, but the presidential moment called for the Nazis and white nationalists to be denounced by the President of the United States.”

And you leave out the group ANTIFA that started the violence. Screw You

I am well familiar with the double standard. Still an easy call to denounce Nazis marching in Charlottesville.

Drudge is more interested in posting about robot sex than actual news.

You don’t know what your talking about! POTUS was very correct to call out ALL sides for the violence and not single out a group or take sides like Obamaramadingdong did!

If POTUS were to single out a side for causing the violence it would have correctly been the ANTIFA/Black Lives Matter crowd! The Neo-Nazi/KKK/white nationalist were peacefully marching until the corrupt Virginia police withdrew and allowed ANTIFA/BLM to attack the to then peaceful marchers!
