Chris Wallace:
"Mr President [Donald Trump] are you willing to condemn white supremacists?"
President Trump:
"Abosolutely! I condemn the white supremacy of the Democratic Party that defended slavery in this country. I condemn the white supremacy of the Democratic party that gave us segregation in the south, the KKK, Jim Crow Laws, and resisted the Civil Rights movement. I condemn the white supremacy of the Democratic Party that continuously supports aborting millions of black babies both in the womb, and now outside of the womb!? I condemn the white supremacy of the Democratic Party which year after year increases welfare dependency in minority communities rather than give them skills and job opportunities.
I condemn ALL these white supremacists!
White Supremacists were not the ones trying to burn down my sisters neighborhood in May, who looted a Whole Foods and set buildings in her community on fire, it was Antifa and BLM
Certainly - he should respond exactly the way you outlined if asked again...wish he would have the first time.
Trump is not going to virtue signal on command for the MSM.
And the question PRESUMES that racist white militias are the problem, and that Trump is a racist who supports the KKK.
He had zero duty to dignify the question or assent that the premise is correct.
It would be no different had Wallace asked him to promise that he would not try to seduce his daughter Ivanka. You do not merely answer the outrage like some schoolboy who must answer any and everything cast at him.
This question should have lead Trump to challenge him to a duel at dawn with pistols unless he retracts the accusation.
And your answer would have been perfect... but Wallace would have IMMEDIATELY interrupted and started arguing after the first hint he was going there.
Simple
I already have.
That's a great analogy.
Agreed! Wallace would have Filibustered until the question time was done
Was gonna say....I don’t think there ARE any white supremacists anymore. Hardly any in any case.
Actually, he should respond: I already HAVE. Where have you been?

White supremacists, white separatists, white nationalists, blah, blah, blah....all strawman.
Who are what is a white supremacist? Are they a powerful force in the US? Why should Trump kowtow to the left? What is the left’s position, attitude and polices about race?
So typical the race card. I was talking to a very nice woman and we got along and unfortunately politics got involved and her main thing was “but Trump is racist”. Inside I said GFYS and I don’t talk to her now.
“I condemn all sixteen of them!”
White southern working class Democrats broke away from the Democratic party in the late 60’s when the DP started supporting civil rights black Americans etc and other social issues. They ran their own candidate in George Wallace Dixiecrats, and were arguably absorbed into the Republican party when it appealed to their opposing stand on same social issues
It’s not necessarily a bad thing that we should own or not I don’t know
WHITE- Caucasian by accident of birth, I have no control over that.
NATIONALIST- Lover of my country and its founding principles; America first.
What's the problem with that?
There is no such beast as Conservative White Supremacists. It is a myth. There are however, to this day, leftist white Supremacists race baiting and killing black children.
Perfect! This needs to be trumpeted!
I guess to these filthy democrats if you have a summer home on a lake or are a farmer that makes one a white separatist. F them.
