It really is crazy how since Trump was elected, that there is half of the country that seems to actually route against America's best interest. I don't care who you vote for or who is elected President, I would ultimately think that the goals of the American people would be somewhat the same.
I never thought I would see people call Israelis and Americans the terrorist or blame a president for trying to denuclearize an evil dictator or people shamed and bullied for supporting the POTUS. Yet that seems to be happening. Crazy world we live in.
Exactly. And people can take his words and actions and twist them into whatever negative connotations they want. Case in point, I saw an article where Spike Lee was at the Cannes Film Festival, introducing his new movie. He went off on Trump in a speech, calling him a motherfucker and referencing his reaction to the Charlottesville protest/clash, where he said both sides were to blame. I pulled up several articles about the clashes so I could get several points of view and not just a slanted perspective from Fox or CNN or the NY Times. One in particular simply quoted about 15 different people on both sides of the fight who were actually there in the middle of it.
Both sides came ready for a fight. Both sides came armed with everything from pepper spray to bats to guns. The protesters came with the intention of physically blocking some of the rally participants from entering the venue and the people attending came with the intent of physically forcing their way through the protesters. 100 time out of 100, this will result in fights breaking out. President Trump could not have been more right in his assessment in saying both sides were to blame. How do you describe it differently? But since he didn't come out and condemn the side people disagreed with....Trump evil racist.
BTW, on one hand, I completely support people's right to assemble peacefully, no matter what their cause or the subject matter is. But after reading quotes from some of the people attending the rally, I'd love to take a bat upside dat head myself. Jeez, there were some racist scumbags there.
