Asked just now if he welcomes the support of white supremacists who "love" him, Trump responded: "I want law and order to be a very important part. It's a very important part of my campaign...what I'm talking about is law enforcement...they should stop defunding the police."

When the reporter followed up, asking if he would denounce white supremacists who support him, Trump responded, "I've always denounced any form, any form -- any form of any of that, you have to denounce. But I also -- Joe Biden has to say something about Antifa."

1. Does he know that Antifa stands for Anti-fascist?

I'm sure that our parents and grandparents who fought in WWII Would be thrilled to know that the US President is against anybody who stands as Anti-Fascist. That would be anti-Hitler and anti-Mussolini. Am I reading this wrong?

8. my parents were Holocaust survivors...Auschwitz "alums"

to say I was born into dysfunction would be an understatement...I wasn't taught the niceties..elbows off the table/ napkin on the lap ..that wasn't important...no, my existence was all about anticipating the next Hitler, bribing the guards and escaping with our lives...my parents are long gone but here I am living in the world they anticipated and prepared for...

11. wow I can relate to a small part of your childhood narrative

my mom was born 10 months after Hitler came to power, she saw what happened being in Frankfurt. In 44 she was marched to an orphanage in Austria along with a long column of children. My grandfather was in a political concentration camp because he refused to fight for Hitler. All my growing up until my mom died when I was 15 I heard repeatedly what to watch out for. In 2015 I was listening to trump at one of his rallies and it literally gave me the chills. It hit home....what my mom told me to watch out for was staring me in the face Hang in there-Mike

13. oh! :-(

My heart aches for you and agingdem. I am sickened by what we have been witness to since Jan 2017, and cannot imagine how much more relevant and painful it must be for you who have the direct family history of those suffering under sadly similar situation.
I was saying (and I realize I was not alone) even during 2016 primaries, this guy spooks me like another Hitler.
I am just so disgusted and hope and work toward getting all who understand truth to go vote this unspeakable piece of filth out NOW.

2. Um, unlike extrene white natiionalists "Antifa" doesn't plot to kill cops to ignite a civil war n/t

3. Just

More code of good people on both sides. This weasel never stops manipulating conniving and scheming. Conman, liar and a cheat about covers him 24/7.

4. "I've always denounced any form, any form -- any form of any of that, you have to denounce."

...is not a denunciation of white supremacists.

[5X]

6. Nope, its more "both sides".

[Nevilledog]

9. Okay... Now let's ask him to say Black Lives Matter.

[greenjar_01]

5. It's totally fucking wild how he can't bring himself to say it

"I've always denounced any form, any form -- any form of any of that, you have to denounce."

This is literally the easiest thing in the world for him to do and he's almost physically incapable of doing it. Remarkable.

[obamanut2012]

7. He literally can't -- it's pathological!

[Solly Mack]

10. He won't denounce his voters. They agree with him and he agrees with them.

He doesn't want them at his dinner table but he will take their praise and cheers. He will bask in their adoration and he will cheer them each and every time they hurt or kill someone.

12. Never heard tRump denounce anything that gets him a few votes.

Pretty much a universal theme for the entire GOP..........
