Imagine that.

Of course, the media and politicians are immediately slobbering all over themselves trying to prove who is the least racist.

Leave the fucking statues alone.

I guess it is like an opiate for the race baiters to hand out instead of something that might actually be useful.
I can't decide which is worse - the actions of the white supremacists or the refusal of the president to show any moral leadership in its aftermath (while acknowledging his contribution to the ascendancy of the Alt-Right). If you don't condemn both, you are indeed deplorable.

I don't have any problem with that. But, it seems the media wants to crucify Trump because he didn't make the whole deal 100% the fault of white supremacists.
