1/ On the second anniversary of Charlottesville, never forget that matter how many times Donald Trump supporters try to retcon and lie about what he said in the days to follow, the judgement of history is already complete: a racist President defended racist scum.
2/Richard Spencer, David Duke and the rest of the alt-reich incels didn't show up in Charlottesville because they were afraid Trump would condemn them.

They came knowing the worst thing that would happen to them was a wink from the most racist president since Woodrow Wilson.
3/ Remember, every teleprompter, prepared speech is only a panic reaction from Kellyanne and Ivanka.

The real Trump says there are very fine people among the Nazis and Kansmen bearing torches and killing Heather Heyer.

The teleprompter puppet gamely walks it back.
4/ This quivering blob of narcissistic hunger hesitates to condemn them because "they're nice to him."

His history is undeniable. It wasn't constructed by the fake news out of nothing.

I won't bother you with recapitulating half a century of his racial behavior.
5/ The fact that every single marcher in Charlottesville hasn't been identified, investigated, and publicly exposed remains a national shame.

The fact that anyone defends Donald Trump's moral equivocation on who the good guys and the bad guys were on that fateful day is worse.
6/ So endeth.
