The fine people video you watched was a cleverly edited hoax. In the same breath, without prompting he said he wasn't referring to neo-nazis or white supremacists who should be "condemned totally.". Here's the proof: [LINK] Here's a compilation of 38 times he condemned racism and white supremacy. [VIDEO] I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but it appears you've been systematically misled on this issue.

I agree that "stand by" does sound problematic, but I would let is slide as a slip up, given that the moderator asked whether he will tell them to "stand down" -- it's an easy mistake to make (and talking about slip ups, Joe Biden has more than enough of them as well). You can see Donald Trump denouncing Proud Boys here: [VIDEO]

Anti-fascism are literally committing acts of fascism. Denouncing white suprmacy: [VIDEO] [LINK] [LINK] The "Fine people" myth (when you view the entire thing in context): [LINK] The entry ban: Did you see what happened to that French school teacher? Have you read The Strange Death of Europe? It doesn't matter though. In that fine people video, even when people were presenting with the reality from the carefully selected video clips they had heard about, they still wouldn't accept it. The media has damaged our psyche. There are not peaceful protests in Portland right now. There have been riots for months! I use to live in Seattle, and the media did a very poor job of covering CHAZ. I made this: [LINK] Antifa is not an idea, it is real. There are cell groups who have done terrible things and the media paints them as peaceful protestors. They're not. They're straight up descendants of The Students for Democratic Society and The Weather Underground ideologically. The protestors in Portland are Domestic Terrorist. The National Guard was finally called in this week to stop them from burning things down. Suppressing speech: that's fascistic Getting people fired because they support a politician you don't like: that's fascistic Calling everyone you don't like a racist or white supremacists: that's fascistic The hard left, big tech and big media are the fascists.

>there is no correlation between when a Dem condemned violent protest and whether they won their election Even assuming this unsupported claim is true, it's not necessarily relevant because correlation isn't the same as causation. For example, it could be that Dems are pretty good at reading their local electorate, and left-leaning areas are more tolerant of violent protest in the name of left causes. So Dems in lefty areas did not condemn violence, whereas Dems in swing areas did condemn violence. If this was true, ceteris paribus you would expect Dems who condemn violence to be more likely to lose, just because they're running more competitive races. BTW, I think people are unfortunately quite tribal nowadays, and tend to assume that extremists have control of the other side even if that's not the case. And disavowing extremists is only partially effective at changing that perception. Think about it--how much have Trump's many disavowals of the far right shifted your perception that he's in bed with them? [VIDEO] Probably not much. >So either that’s not actually the critical factor, or it’s not possible to control for this factor in any sort of reliable way. One failed attempt doesn't mean that something can't be done.

[LINK] > Mixture: During the debate, Trump was repeatedly asked and invited to explicitly and clearly condemn white supremacists, and he did not do that. He did condemn it; it literally follows up with "Sure, I'm willing to do that." And for added bs [VIDEO] 38 Times President Trump Has Condemned Racism and White Supremacy ------------------------- [LINK] > Mostly False: Biden said "Now we have over 120 million dead from COVID" at the Pennsylvania event in apparent reference to U.S. fatalities. There is literally a video of him in the article doing it ------------------------- Took literally a couple of seconds to find evidence.
