So why didn't Trump denounce white supremacists?

[KhaosRises]

He couldn't even do it LOL

[Mountaineer92]

hes done it multiple times.


*******.

[LeftistGent]

LOL true. All he had to say was something about designating the KKK as a terrorist organization but he rambled about antifa and told the proud boys to standby. LMAO what an embarrassment. Lot of center right voters jumping ship after this horrendous performance.

[Seatard]

hes done it multiple times.


*******.

Probably would have been a good idea to do it one more time tonight.

It could end up being looked back at as the point when he lost the election.

[Firefightn24]

Trump, Aug. 14, 2017: Racism is evil. And those who cause violence in its name are criminals and thugs, including the KKK, neo-Nazis, white supremacists, and other hate groups that are repugnant to everything we hold dear as Americans.

Trump, Aug. 15, 2017: I’m not talking about the neo-Nazis and the white nationalists, because they should be condemned totally.



Already been done.

[Harry362]

White supremacists don’t even exist


Why didn’t Biden condemn BLM and AntiFa

[Underwrought]

Ah yeah don't know he loves them so much he just made the KKK into a terrorist organization.

Why, are you forgetful? Do you need constant reminders? Let Trump know, so he can help you with your ageing mind.

[chiseledmanbeef]

Who cares?

Derp.

I don't need reminders, and personally find the topic uninteresting.

Doesn't change the fact that, right or wrong, racism is a huge topic in the country right now. It's stupid to dodge such a basic question when speaking to the entire country during a presidential debate.

This. Why is the left complicit with black supremacists?

[GooBaaa]

If I was a in a large city I would be more worried about BLM/antifa than white supremacists lmao

I've met a few for business reasons other than being totally anti-government and they pretty much hate everyone they usually keep to themselves unless threatened

The die hard ones have more WW2 memorabilia than most museums too

[MinisterOfLust]

Maybe Trump suffers from dementia?

[monty097]

He literally said "I'll denounce whoever you want, what do you want to call them, white supremacists? Proud boys?"

And Wallace gave him Proud Boys as the option and he told them to back off, even though they aren't even white supremacists so not sure why they were even mentioned.

That's a lot of words for something you found uninteresting along with requests for for repeating what has already been said.

I'll wait for your continued responses.

President Donald Trump told far-right neo-fascist group the Proud Boys to “stand back and stand by” when former Vice President Joe Biden and moderator Chris Wallace challenged him to denounce white supremacists — sparking both outrage and confusion on Twitter.

“But are you willing tonight to condemn white supremacists and militia groups?” Wallce asked the president.

“Proud boys, stand back and stand by,” Trump said. “But I’ll tell you what, somebody’s got to do something about Antifa and the left because this is not a right-wing this is not a right-wing problem

Many Twitter users pointed out that Trump failed to actually condemn anyone, while some were confused and concerned by what he meant when he asked them to “stand by.”

White supremacist terror appeal tbh

Kinda like a Maoist Red Scare (Cultural Revolution) where he can reign in anyone different from his POV. Srs.

He means to appeal to the Militias to get into action when the election goes down November 3. Mark my words

What part of "Trump has officially designated the KKK as a terrorist organization" don't you retards understand?

More to the point, why do you like to conveniently forget about:

Go take a browse through /pol/. White supremacists there despise Trump. They think he's an Zionist, race-mixing cuckservative.

It's a lot of words? WTF are you even arguing about?

I thought is was a bad strategy to dodge the question. Sounds like you think it was perfectly fine to not answer. You gonna be okay with someone having a different opinion than yourself?

[AlwaysFocus]

he didnt have to at the debate, he already has, id assume he did not answer AGAIN so youd be "trolled"


Looks like it worked

The average American tuning in to the debate has no idea WTF you are talking about either.

Its a "huge" topic? To who?

[Holyfenix]

Chris “ would you denounce white supremacist groups ...”

Trump “yes”

Chris “ and tell far right militia groups to stand down”
Trump “yes”

No wonder you’re red

If im watching the 2 candidates for the first time, what am I thinking? He did not denounce them. IDC if he has in the past, the average voter isnt going to dig on the web to find the one instance where he has. I dont remember when he's done it in the past, say it again and ill believe him. But he didnt.

It was a dumb move plain and simple. Easy way to win/retain votes. But he didnt.

The point is to win over undecided voters, not to have your fan base make assumptions for you. The average american isnt following politics like y'all. Its something to be explicitly said whenever asked for.

Understand the audience and goal of a debate breh.....

[KingSWRV]

Because asking someone to do that is a move by the goys to make him their bitch

It’s a power move

Why even ask someone to do that in that context

Fallacious question meant to make someone come off as a cuck for no reason

This is what R&P misses. None of us are undecided voters. We’re paying attention constantly and commenting on it. Trump needed to win over the average American and he failed to do so.

[Seatard]

I don't know, maybe I'm wrong?

You are constantly talking about it on this forum. There are dozens of threads about it on this forum every day. Millions of ******** moms with various profile pictures addressing it. BLM flags hanging on houses. Signs in yards. News channels have something about it every day.

We don't have to agree on the validity of any of it, but you're not seriously going to argue that it's not the hot topic right now are you?
