If in 2020 you still think President Trump once called neo-Nazis “fine people,” you are a low-information voter. It is the most debunked fake news in American history.
This is where the low-information voters stream in to say, “But I heard him say it! It is on video!” Then I show you the entire non-edited video and you see he said literally the opposite and condemned neo-Nazis in direct language.
Then the low-information voters say, “But no one marching with neo-Nazis are good people!” Then I tell you I interviewed attendees and learned the normies were herded to safety by police upon arrival and never got near the neo-Nazis. Nor did they support them.
Then the low-information voters will complain that no one who supports Confederate statues is a “good person.” Then I will ask why about 25% of African-Americans support keeping the statues, per polls.
Then I mention I oppose Confederate statues because they are offensive to many Americans. That’s reason enough to relocate them at least.
Then low-information voters will be triggered into cognitive dissonance and start repeating themselves. Then I lay down the kill shot...
. . . by saying the President stated his assumption about who attended and spoke to his assumptions. If he was wrong about who attended, he would be equal to the news industry who also never reported the mix of attendees. But that’s the worst case, that he was wrong about data.
And he wasn’t even wrong about who attended. I interviewed locals and others who assumed the protests would be a diverse group with diverse opinions, and saw no reason they couldn’t attend to disavow racism while supporting historical monuments.
