Anderson Cooper: How many 'fine people' would march with Nazis?
CNN's Anderson Cooper rips President Donald Trump for once again defending his 2017 comments that there were "very fine people on both sides" of the white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, that left one counterprotester dead.
This is exactly what I was talking about the in last post where Trump was defending his Charlottesville comments.
Pathetic Jim Acosta ‘fact checks’ Trump’s comments from this morning, suggesting he was talking about Neo-Nazis and White Supremacists:
But as we pointed out that’s clearly not true.Trump defends his “very fine people” comments on Charlottesville: “People were there protesting the taking down of the monument of Robert E. Lee. Everybody knows that.” Fact check: There were many neo-Nazis and white supremacists.— Jim Acosta (@Acosta) April 26, 2019
And folks on Twitter were quick to point that out as well:
Fact check this:— Larry O'Connor (@LarryOConnor) April 26, 2019
"I'm not talking about the neo-Nazis and the white nationalists, because they should be condemned totally."
That's what @realDonaldTrump said that day and you were standing 10 feet away from him.
You do your network proud. @cnn https://t.co/sahSF6M6lj

Trump specifically said he was not talking about neo-Nazis and white supremacists.

Yellow Journalism— Ketland (@jeffreyketland) April 26, 2019
• Trump openly condemned the neo-Nazis & white supremacists
• called them "criminals and thugs"
• said "racism is evil"
• said those responsible would be "held fully accountable"
This is brazen revision of history that would make the Katyn murderers proud. https://t.co/Ljf69zXN2z
