Condemn Farrakhan? Sure, happy to. Farrakhan is a fucking asshole: he's an anti-Semitic, homophobic, misogynist,grifter who was almost certainly complicit in the murder of Malcolm X. Thankfully, he's also a figure with a small & dwindling following.

And every bit of condemnation he received for that was entirely deserved. Extremists on both ends are happy to play footsie with anti-Semites. But as a Democrat, I have a responsibility to be more outspoken when it comes from my side.
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

It seemed to me like he didn’t have a clue who David Duke was.

Unlikely. He referred to Duke on previous occasions.

Such as the minor detail that elected officials can be voted out of office, while activists have no such constraints? And of course you might recall that extremist activists can gain political power if they get enough free media--hmmmm, didn't that happen quite recently?

I was asked if there was something comparable to Farrakhan meeting congressmen and I suppled an example. How is that whataboutism?
