Spicer Hits Blitzer on Repeated Calls for Trump Neo-Nazis Denouncements: ‘When Is It...Enough?’
Breitbart ^ | November 23, 2016 | JEFF POOR

Posted on 11/23/2016 7:15:28 AM PST by maggief

Tuesday on CNN’s “The Situation Room,” Republican National Committee spokesman Sean Spicer fielded numerous questions from host Wolf Blitzer as to why, how, when President-elect Donald Trump should denounce neo-Nazi and white supremacist groups that have expressed their approval of this month’s presidential election results.

Spicer replied by asking Blitzer when enough was going to be enough and alluded to the numerous denouncements from Trump already on the topic.

“When is it going to be enough?” Spicer declared. “He has condemned everyone that’s come out and supported him, every group that supported him. At some point you have to take the position and go and move on. But over and over again, somebody will come out and say I support Donald Trump. He has to denounce them. Someone tweets, he has to refute the tweet. At what point is his position clear? He has said he refutes that. That is not the kind of movement he wants to support or be energized by him. That’s not the kind of people he wants to be associated with. And so, I don’t know how many more times Donald Trump can make his position clear, but it has been crystal clear for a long time and over and over and over again with every tweet, utterance, you name it Facebook posts, he has to somehow respond to it.

But they hate it when we expect the Islamic community to denounce terrorism.

It was painful to watch. Wolf is pathetic.

The reason Blitzer does this is simple enough...

He wants CNN’s viewers to believe Donald Trump is a racist and a white supremacist.

That’s it, that’s all, that is the reason to repeatedly ask the question.

There is no desire to get to the truth, to explore an answer, to find out information.

It’s all designed to push a meme:

Trump is a white supremacist racist.

The dems NEVER denounce or disavow support given to them by ANY radical group. They’ve never denounced support from Black Panthers, Communists, Socialists, the Weather Underground, Rev. Wright, La Raza and its numerous off-shoots, and even the KKK. When Trump or anyone else is asked to disavow someone or some group, he and they should respond with, “as soon as the dems denounce the Communist party, the Socialist Party, the Black Panthers, the Weather Underground, etc.”

"The Communist Party of the USA endorsed Hillary Clinton."

It's unclear whether the MSM avoided that issue to protect Hillary or because they think there's nothing wrong with communism. Actually, maybe both reasons.

But the point is that since the election (even before it), the media have done their best to seek out the most atypical Trump supporters (KKK, alt-right, crazy people) and make them the face of the campaign.

They would never think of doing that with regards to a Democrat, even though you can find a dozen extreme left-wing groups and crazy Democrats in a New York minute.

"Again, I really hope the press keeps this up. They’re totally over-playing what they think is their “hand”."

When the media played-up that neo-Nazi guy the other day (I can't even remember his name), it was probably the first time that most Trump supporters had ever heard of him, yet the media tried to make him seem like a typical Trump supporter.

"I haven’t heard Blitzer denounce child rapers."

Seriously, I've never once seen the media denounce BLM for chanting "death to cops" slogans, I haven't seen one editorial denouncing the anti-Trump death threats, I haven't seen one editorial denouncing BLM members shooting cops or beating up white people, and I haven't seen one editorial denouncing the beating-up of Trump supporters. I can only conclude that the media support these actions.

Trump needs to carry a printed folded up sign in his suit... it will say, "I condemn Nazis". Every time the press asks the same question, he pulls out the same sign, opens it up and waves it. He should NOT say a word... The MSM will really hate him for it BECAUSE IT SHOWS WHAT JERKS THE PRESS IS... and we'll be on the sideline cheering...
