When a Democratic pres calls violent far left agitators "very fine people" & puts some in prominent positions the equivalence won't be false
-
-
I know some people are so deep in partisanship they desperately want the comfort of a Democrat-Republican disagreement.
-
But the POTUS insisting a group of white supremacists includes some very fine people isn't a partisan issue. It's an American issue.
-
Any comparison is irrelevant. If someone else said something bad sometime, that doesn't make defending white supremacists good.
-
Not defending their right to peacefully assemble. Not defending the principle of free speech. Defending the white supremacists themselves.
-
Everyone at the rally was, at the very least, ok with being part of a group in which some people carried Nazi flags and chanted Nazi slogans
-
That's why so few outside of the alt-right are defending Trump's decision to call them "very fine people."
-
Distract, draw false equivalences, cherry pick the president's statements. Anything to avoid defending "very fine people."
