Well, mate tell me who is supporting far right groups?

I no longer think you are honest about this stuff now. I asked you if you supported antifa and you posted saying you didn't support a group that used violence.....but since then you have done nothing but deny their violence. This group have caused violence where no fascists were around.....they are anti capitalism, anti right and pro Marxist. That's why you no doubt support them. I'll never stand with the far right but I sure as hell wouldn't stand with you lot either. You are nearly as bad.

'Trump apologist' I criticise Trump where I disagree and praise him where I do agree...Not that it matters a hill of beans....The reality is I disagree far more than agree. But I'm not a demoniser like you seem to be here. As for a bubble...maybe, but the reality is that the markets have risen because he is there. Your denial was just irrational....but I don't really expect anything different from you.
Apologist has a specific meaning and it fits exactly what you have been doing. At 73 I am hardly immature, and I try hard not to hate anyone. I think Trump is probably quite mentally ill, but that doesn't mean he isn't dangerous. The markets have risen despite Trump and not because of him. It was expected that he would pass tax reduction legislation but despite him failing to do so they have still risen. As he has failed with all his key promises and it seems his days in the WH are numbered the chances of tax law changing get remoter by the day. When the crash comes will be take responsibility for that? Or will he blame Obama, Hillary, The Democrats, the MSM, the Muslims, the Mexicans or the "Deep State?

[Link] - Black protester Deandre Harris ‘beaten with metal poles’ by white supremacists It's almost as if when what amounts to an organised armed militia comes to town, things go wrong. But never mind, because there was fault 'on both sides'. Trump had no problem going full force about college campus trouble, but was awfully shy and circumspect when nazi types come to town. This isn't a matter of degrees, how do you screw this one up? 'Some very fine people'. Wake up Mr President. Edited by wordup (16 Aug 2017 10.06pm)

They needed the $800 billion in cuts to Medicaid to offset the tax cuts and failing to kill Obamacare means they don't have that money to play with.

I agree with your first sentence. I don't agree with the criticism of Trump....over and above saying that he tries to straddle the line and go more soft focus on where his votes come from....Obama did it with black lives matter....But Trump has actually attacked the KKK and quite rightly....also anyone involved in violence...also rightly. As for your point about Antifa......Mmmm...they violently closed down Milo at Berkeley and while you might not like Milo he's not a fascist or white supremacist....But I'm well aware that antifa are very willing to dramatically lower and alter the standards for what fits what. Edited by Stirlingsays (16 Aug 2017 2.28pm) Trump hasn't though gone tactically "soft focus" has he? He has pandered and encouraged the nastiest elements in US society. Just look at the support messages from David Duke. Then read the responses from within the GOP leadership. He has made huge tactical errors because he has crossed the Rubicon. Even tacit support for Nazis is a no no. I suggest you view this BBC report from someone who was actually there:- [Link] I am not an apologist for Antifa! I am just pointing out that they would not exist if there was nothing to oppose. Rid the world, through decent education, of Nazi attitudes and Antifa ones disappear with them. I have listened to Milo! He seems pretty extreme in his views to me. Nazi, maybe! Neo-Nazi probably. Idiot. Certainly.

There was no permit for the Friday evening tiki-torch lit parade, though. They just gathered, lit up and marched through the University campus chanting Nazi slogans like "blood and soil" - a reference to ethnic and geographic purity. Which is a bit like when the Orangemen used to suit up and march right through the most Catholic parts of Belfast and then pretend to be surprised that people got upset.

Oh yeah I forgot...with people like you...you act like anyone who opposes your views is a Nazi....So there are millions of them....ridiculous.

You can display Nazi like tendencies and still be Jewish! Some Israelis manage it pretty well. Milo is involved with the "Daily Stormer" which is definitely Nazi sympathetic, so yes he is probably a Neo-Nazi. It is rather pathetic to try to deny it! Trump has given constant comfort to the far right, ever since he started campaigning. Only the blind, the deaf or the ignorant would seek to deny it. It isn't just what he says, it is what he does and what he doesn't do or say. His policies chime with far right objectives. Anti immigration, racial bias, nationalism, anti globalisation, isolationist rhetoric. You want a specific? What about his retweet of a far right activist's tweet about a CNN man being hit by the "Trump Train"? That's just THIS week! It isn't the Nazis themselves who are dangerous. It is those who find any reason to excuse or defend them. Their apologists are the concern, and there are too many of them in the USA! There are a few in the UK too, generally spouting support for UKIP. Look at the mess they have got the UK into!

Show me what comments Trump has made that show support for the far right? If you produce one I'll probably support you and criticise it. As for Milo being a Neo Nazi and some Israelis are Nazis....Well, I think that just reveals all anyone needs to know about your views. For a 'progressive' to complain about Nazis so much you wouldn't think that the Labour party wasn't the biggest safe space around for anti semitism in the country.....oh wait...the grass roots and some of the upper tiers are full of it...hates nazis...has a lot of anti Semitic sentiment....no cognitive dissonance there at all is there.....As for you and your 'some Jews' are Nazis....well, at least you have a nice line in comedy. Mr Gristle may support you and the rest of the 'progressive/regressives on here so I'll leave you to foam at the mouth with them. I can only cope with a certain about of crazy for one evening.

This might interest you Stirling and hopefully give a reality check; But on the flatlands of social media, the border between Mr. Trump and white supremacists easily blurs. He has retweeted supportive messages from racist or nationalist Twitter accounts to his nine million followers. Last fall, he retweeted a graphic with fictitious crime statistics claiming that 81 percent of white homicide victims in 2015 were killed by blacks. (No such statistic was available for 2015 at the time; the actual figure for 2014 was 15 percent, according to the F.B.I.) In January and February he retweeted messages from a user with the handle @WhiteGenocideTM, whose profile picture is of George Lincoln Rockwell, the founder of the American Nazi Party. A couple of days later, in quick succession, he retweeted two more accounts featuring white nationalist or Nazi themes. Mr. Trump deleted one of the retweets, but white supremacists saw more than a twitch of the thumb. “Our Glorious Leader and ULTIMATE SAVIOR has gone full wink-wink-wink to his most aggressive supporters,” Mr. Anglin wrote on The Daily Stormer. In fact, Mr. Trump’s Twitter presence is tightly interwoven with hordes of mostly anonymous accounts trafficking in racist and anti-Semitic attacks. When Little Bird, a social media data mining company, analyzed a week of Mr. Trump’s Twitter activity, it found that almost 30 percent of the accounts Mr. Trump retweeted in turn followed one or more of 50 popular self-identified white nationalist accounts. [The New York Times, 7/14/16] Again, what comments has Trump come out with that support far right groups? As for Trump's twitter feed. I know that his enemies abound on that feed and look to trip him up all the time....you get tricks being played all the time and then people like you repeat things without the context. Maybe you are right, maybe you are wrong. Is Trump looking at tweets he receives? I very much doubt it....He gets many thousands...I imagine he has massive filters and people involved....Still gullible people like you will believe whatever negative stuff you hear. I know Trump plays soft focus on the far right for several reasons I've already state that but again. What has Trump said that shows support for far right groups. I've heard him criticise them....I've asked this several times now and all I get back is your limp wristed response. Edited by Stirlingsays (17 Aug 2017 12.17am)
