Former presidential candidate Mitt Romney argued violent leftists were morally righteous. No, not the same. One side is racist, bigoted, Nazi. The other opposes racism and bigotry. Morally different universes, Romney tweeted Tuesday night.
Florida Sen. Marco Rubio took a similar tone in assigning 100% to blame for the Charlottesville violence on white supremacists which amounts to a total exculpation of antifa. Rubio also tweeted out a poorly-worded statement that may have explicitly endorsed left-wing violence: When entire movement built on anger & hatred towards people different than you,it justifies & ultimately leads to violence against them, the senator stated in his ill-formed tweet.
Arizona Sen. John McCain who fought and was tortured by communists in Vietnam claimed that violent leftists are great Americans fighting against hate. Theres no moral equivalency between racists & Americans standing up to defy hate& bigotry. The President of the United States should say so, McCain tweeted
Before Trumps Tuesday comments, Virginia gubernatorial candidate Ed Gillespie claimed during a Monday radio interview that those who incite violence are committing an even more serious offense than those who actually commit violence. He added that these alleged propagators of hate need to be arrested and prosecuted and put behind bars.

Hey, you can quit any time you wanna, can’t you?
Mock at God — you get mocked right back at, from Heaven. I invite you to try, if you think you can pull it off.
That is such bullsh*t!
The swamp that Trump wanted to drain was behind both groups in a Psyop against Americans to start such chaos so that they can take back control.
I’ve cast my last vote for a Republican. Never again.
McCain, Romney and Rubio have painted a target on the back of any conservative who dared stand up for traditional values, by giving a licence to leftists to commit violence whenever they decide they are “offended” by conservative values. America is on a precipice. When a government states that one group is morally justified in using violence in response to alleged offensive speech by another group, anarchy will ensue. There will never be another conservative speaker permitted on a university campus, and any politician who speaks against freaks in the military or the charade of homosexual “marriage” risks having his or her offices “occupied” and trashed.
So true; I only wish Donald Trump would have called out the leftist mobs for the USSR flags they carried (which were shown in live news on Saturday then removed from edited clips later); these weren’t some variation of it, but straight-up USSR flags. That should be at least as unacceptable as Nazi flags, and nobody is mentioning it. I don’t expect the Uniparty or their media to do so, but there must be some American politicians willing to do so.
The politics of envy are dangerous.
Once you go down that shinning path, all violence is justifiable, for whatever reason any person can think of at the moment. You've given up on any moral claim, destroyed the Constitution in the process, and usher in Mad Max anarchy. Stupid, stupid, stupid GOP.
But at least they're consistent.

Great post.
We now know that anyone wearing a black uniform, mask, wielding a club, setting fires, smashing property, and attacking anyone with whom they disagree are TRUE AMERICAN HEROES. Just as long as they say they are fighting fascism.
“When Fascism comes to America, it will be called anti-Fascism.”
If we’re really being honest, while I do have some legit critiques about Trump, I am SO glad that he’s exposed these low energy clowns for what they are. I’ll admit, I used to think a lot of talk about the “GOPe” here on FreeRepublic was a bit eccentric, but it’s all true. There is a GOP establishment, and it has no idea what it’s doing.
It’s like battered conservative syndrome. They keep getting abused by the left...but he loves me!!
Don't buy into their BS.
Republicans dont exist anyway.”
I now call them “Corporate Liberals” because that is exactly what they are.
Not only is the GOP supporting communists, with these quotes, they are saying the left has the right to get physically violent against a person(s) that they believe to have hateful thoughts which is basically saying if the left views Trump supporters, the police, the miltary, or anyone as hateful people, do not worry about the constitution or law, they have justification to become violent against those people theydisagree with.
“Virginia gubernatorial candidate Ed Gillespie claimed during a Monday radio interview that those who incite violence are committing an even more serious offense than those who actually commit violence.”
Ed ought to be permanently disqualified from any elected office with a statement like that.
"When entire movement built on anger & hatred towards people different than you, it justifies & ultimately leads to violence against them," the senator stated in his ill-formed tweet.
The construction states (not implies) that violence against such a movement is justified.
It’s not a toomah.
There is absolutely a moral equivalence between Neo-Nazis and Antifa/BLM protesters. The former preach hatred towards non-whites. The latter preach hatred towards whites. It’s no surprise that establishment Republicans like McCain, Graham, and Rubio do their best to ingratiate themselves to the Left by rejecting this moral equivalence and giving anti-white bigots the moral high ground and legitimacy.
It is spelled: U N I P A R T Y
The UniParty is in full swing right now....they staged this and pushing it to the hilt. All those SOBs should be tried and hanged for treason.
These useless quisling rinos are well beyond their “use by” date. What putrid idiots. Seditionists? Yes.
