Current Events > Remember when Trump refused to denounce white supremacists?

(+) Yeah! (+)

And told the proud boys to stand by?

Don't let the media circus divert your attention.

Hes denounced white supremacy and racism multiple times. Also proud boys (a group I dont care for) is composed of multiple races and sexual orientations. The head of the LA chapter (flagship chapter) and international chairman are both black. Get educated.

Not it aimed at TC, just to people who will respond

Sure is weird that they're who the President thought of when asked about white supremacy then.

The Proud Boys should be suing Trump for saying them during a question about white supremacy

If you mean the debate, I'm pretty sure Biden threw that name out and Trump ran with it. To be fair though, it is hard to hear him over the moderator and Trump bickering.

You guys didnt watch the debate huh?

I made myself watch that clusterfuck, anyway, Biden suggested them.

...and yes, trumps response was painful.

*edit, ninjad

Trump didn't bring up the Proud Boys but let's not get off course from the fact that he couldn't just stand there and denounce white supremacy and instead had to talk about the real issue of Antifa

---

He couldnt shut up the entire debate, but he did denounce white supremacy.

Trump does enough stupid shit and did enough stupid shit at that debate. We shouldnt need to lie about things he didnt do.

remember when he pretended to not know who david duke was after he endorsed him?

remember how he retweeted a guy shouting white power?

So why are you lying about him denouncing white supremacy at it?

He says Sure twice while Wallace is still asking the question, then, when Wallace is almost finished he interrupts again saying Sure, Im willing to do that, but... and then he starts going off on the Antifa tangent.

Again, he acted like such a fool during this debate. We do not need to make stuff up.

"Sure" in that context is not a denouncement and if you honestly think it is, then it says all anyone needs to know about you. Stop pretending to be a "reasonable objector" to Trump, as you clearly aren't and no one is buying it.

he refused to denounce white supremacists because he is a white supremacist

Saying "sure" is perfect for when somebody asks you if you want pepperoni on the pizza as well.

Saying "sure, but..." is not okay when being asked to denounce white supremacy.

And that's just ignoring the fact that when asked to specifically do it to a certain group he literally couldn't and instead said "stand back and stand by"

What a worthless fucking post. I really hope Trump is paying you for all this slurping.

People will tell you he's denounced White Supremacy, "numerous times" until he goes back on that denouncement and begins to dog-whistle, retweet videos where his supporters are clearly repeating White Supremacy rhetoric and much more. So no, he hasn't.

Are you serious...

He said "Sure, I WILL denounce white supremacy", he never did denounce it.

Dont forget his taxes

Trump has denounced white supremacism numerous times. Like at the debate when he told the Proud Boys to stand by. Stand by counts as a denunciation. What more do you libs want Jesus Christ

Okay bro. Trump hid the fact that he had COVID, made SS drive him around while he was still contagious and left the hospital like 3 days after he was admitted, meaning that he either never had COVID or hes still infecting people now. These are three real things he did this week (and its only fucking Tuesday). He fucks up hundreds of real times every week, sometimes every day.

And here you sit making a semantic argument about how Sure isnt a strong enough word for Yes and trying to convince me that me disagreeing with you on a silly little semantic argument means Im secretly a Trump supporter.

And you know what? Trump probably shouldve flatly said Yes. Thats true. But we currently have a President who at this point is legendary for saying stupid shit without thinking, for not being able to shut up and for having such thin skin that he feels the need to lash out whenever he feels the slightest bit of a challenge. So I understand why he may have said sure (he wasnt thinking and just off-hand agreed) and why he immediately shifted to Antifa (he was lashing out at a perceived shot at the right), and think it might not have been because he secretly didnt want to answer yes. After all, even if he had said Fuck white supremacists, I hope they burn in hell, its not like its gonna make them vote Democrat.

It could only have benefited him to flatly say yes and then shut his mouth and the fact that he didnt is (yet another) fuck up and nothing more, at least in my mind. Youre free to have your own opinion on the matter, but please dont imply that mine is a result of my having any allegiance to Trump because I absolutely take offense to that. Ive disliked him since long before he became President and his words and actions during his Presidency have only amplified this.

Sorry for the long post.

Lost another one to the block list

If you don't want to be called a Trump supporter, perhaps don't support him on things even his ardent supporters are shocked he couldn't do? FFS, the group he was asked to denounce are using his words to embolden themselves.

This is about a man who was given the easiest ball to knock out of the park and failed to do it. All he had to say was "I condemn them" and instead he gave them a catchphrase to rally around and started ranting about antifa. You call him out on his other shit, so call him out on this and don't blindly defend him on something that even many of his supporters don't.

just to clarify one thing, of course the proud boys are a white supremacist group. having people of color in your organization and constantly denouncing everything doesn't necessarily change that. tarrio was right there in charlottesville wearing body armor and an alt-knight badge. not that i think most of you need to be told this, but the alt-right is willing to lie to try and convert moderates.

this video is pretty informative about the proud boys. timestamped at a point i thought was very important: you need to watch how these people act. you can't just go by what they say.

https://youtu.be/pZMWQDvZQZs?t=155

In interviews, Tarrio has said he only supports violence as self-defense and has claimed racist and misogynistic postings by Proud Boys members are jokes meant to test the limits of free speech.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/nation/2019/02/19/far-right-proud-boys-chairman-sat-behind-trump-his-latest-speech/

For instance, they've made rape jokes, called people "******," and referred to transgender people as "it." Tarrio brushes these off, saying he loathes how little he feels people are free to say nowadays. He claims doesn't "treat transgender people or gay people badly." He acknowledges calling Leslie Jones an ape but claims it had nothing to do with her skin color: "She just looks like an ape."

like, guys, i trust you aren't naive enough to actually buy these facile excuses. these are just more examples of how they want to appear to moderates.
