> Direct quote, you can easily find a full transcript and see for yourself. Yet you didn't even know this existed. You're being lied to every day and you don't even know it.
You are assuming I'm being misled because I¨m not up to date on the latest "controversy" to hit PragerU.
I watched the whole press briefing when it happened, I'm very aware of what Trump said. And your direct quote is as much a direct quote as that which you suggest was unfair. Both are low on context.
The problem (in full context) was his multiple use of "both sides" referring to both good people as well as bad.
Whether he explicitly referred to neo-nazis or not is trying to divert the focus away from the fact that only people on one side was killed, only people on one side the night before chanted "jews will not replace us" and "blood and soil", and only people on one side were sporting a flag that symbolizes slavery.
I'm not glossing over the fact that there were violence on the other side, as there always will be.
But what the narrative cast by "charlottesville hoax" is sidestepping is that one side wouldn't be there if there wasn't for the need to stand up to (some portion) literal nazis.
Repeatedly uttering the words "both/all sides" in any context at that press conference is indefensible.
I¨m hoping you are not suggesting the same? If so, we¨re not even operating in the same reality.
