The next American Civil War is one gunshot away in Michigan right now

i could be wrong but i don't think that was the original "both sides" speech

Maybe or maybe it just seems that way because they never play the full clip.

waaaay too lunesta'd up to search now but i swear this was his attempt at cleaning up his original statement, and trump being trump, doubled down whenever he gets attacked.

of course, i could be delirious.

[Zap_the_Fractions_Giraffe]

when trump was talking about "good people on both sides" he wasn't talking about the tiki torch nazis, he was talking about the southern people who don't want to tear down statues and things that commemorate confederate soldiers which is what the whole protest/counter protest was about, and in no way shape or form was everybody on the "keep the statues" side wearing white polos with torches chanting about 'you will not replace us'

and for the record, I'm on the keep the statues side because statues are cool and it pisses off YOU KNOW WHATS, hippies and women

i'm ok with the first part of what you said but i still don't see how normal people are marching next to actual klansman, nazis and the jews will not replace us crowd.

at what point does someone just say, yeah, nope.

let's face it. if you're taking time out of your day to travel to a rally (there is no cause that would inspire me to do this) just to protest confederate statutes being taken down, you're not necessarily a nazi. but you're getting there.

Some would say that's a reasonable stance to take. It still doesn't change the fact that Trump wasn't referring to the neo-nazis as very fine people.

It was a brilliant move by the left all around. First they voted to remove the Lee Statue. They probably sat around and said, we are a blue state now, let’s see if these confederate losers will actually fall for this. So the Klan and the Proud Boys and all the other stupid southerners fell right into their trap and fought to keep a statue of a loser.


In any logical world, the proud boys, if they had any actual pride, would be fighting for their right to tear down the Lee statue because nothing says having no pride like building statues for a loser who had to surrender. Antifa should have been fighting to force the south to keep the statue as a reminder that they’re so pathetic that having no winners, they were forced to erect statues of losers.

It should have been a battle where Antifa surrounded the statue to protect it as the Proud Boys were attempting to destroy it because it was a reminder of their epic failure. Instead Antifa outwitted the stupid southerners and made them think keeping a statue of a stone cold loser was a victory. They actually got them to fight for a statue that serves as a testament to their failure.

So the statue of the loser remains standing, and Virginia is now deep blue, and as a cherry on top, they have a statue of a confederate loser right in town to vandalize. Total victory by the left.

What is Michigan? It’s not ever going to be a red state permanently. The white trash are riled up about now, no doubt.

They’ve been played perfectly by corporate interests who are expert at manipulating the stupid.

Trump can’t be gone soon enough. He has toyed with dangerous language and unstable people the past 3 years. Now a real crisis happens and they are ready to snap.

That trash isn’t generally even the brokest of people either. It’s rarely economic. It’s their gun fetish and lizard brain paranoia.

They’re riled up here in Ohio also with a Republican governor.

Almost the whole country is ran by Republicans from the top down to local governments, and yet these idiots still think they’re being threatened.

Just a friendly reminder. The GOP has both sides of the Michigan Legislature which last held elections in 2018 oh and Trump won MI in 2016. You were saying???

[ftpjesus]

You do realize Antifa was fighting against white supremacists thus if you think he was referring to the white supremacists as good people then he was also calling Antifa good people? The other explanation would be the good people he was talking about were the other peaceful protesters that were there that day from both sides. That wouldn’t be much of a story though now would it? So We’ll go with Trump believes Antifa and white supremists are a bunch of good people instead.

nazis.


he was talking about nazis.


tiki torch nazis.


antifa are not some 'other side of the coin' to nazis. stop drinking druff's mentally ill flavored koolaid.

If Antifa supports government running everything and dictating then free speech then they are Fascists. No other way to classify them sorry.

[ftpjesus]

Correct.

A few idiots do something stupid, and it's a perfect opportunity for the media to frame it as Trump's fault for causing an armed rebellion.

He is a contributing factor.

Let a few hundred armed black protesters enter a Republican-controlled statehouse in the south and start shouting at everyone. I'm sure it would end up just the same way.

Except Louis Farrakhan Jesse Jackson would call them repressed poor individuals and the Dems would be writing checks to hand out to those armed blacks for reparations.

VA is not a fucking Blue state believe me. Not as a whole. The infestation of the socialist cucks from the People’s Socialist Republic of Maryland into Northern VA around the beltway doesn’t make VA Blue by far. Hell Many In VA will let DC or MD hand the Beltway area over to them if they promise not to cross south of the Rappahanock River to the South and the Catocton Mountains tot he West giving up half of Loudon County. The state would be Red again instantly. It’s one dark deep blue splotch that has fucked in the politics in the rest of the state. It’s why most Sheriffs and such made it clear they won’t enforce any gun grabs by that black face wearing POS Governor Northram.

Clearly my alternate history Charlottesville riff just having fun with zaps statues are cool take got FTP shook. That little blue splotch makes them a 8 or 9-1 favorite last I looked. Maybe it’s chloroquine side effect. If he believes any of that gibberish he can turn that Uber handout into $50k betting a VA/MI both red parlay.

[Walter Sobchak]

and for the record, I'm on the keep the statues side because statues are cool and it pisses off YOU KNOW WHATS, hippies and women

I'm on the keep the statues side because it's part of our history and we need to use the uncomfortable parts of our history as tools for teaching and mature discussion rather than making it all disappear like it didn't happen.

Fuck SJW cancel culture. But fuck those demonstrators too.

Does MAGA agree with this sentiment? Felt like this rattled everyone.
