    He is both.

    Everyone has seen him scream. He challenged a fat guy to a sit up contest, he wanted to fight an auto worker outside, he took down corn pop.....

    White nationalist Richard Spencer ENDORSES Biden for president because the 'alt-right/MAGA moment is over' - but the Democratic nominee's campaign swiftly says his support is '10,000% unwelcome'
    • Richard Spencer on Monday tweeted that he was voting for Joe Biden
    • The neo-Nazi said Donald Trump had been 'an obvious disaster'
    • Spencer said 'the liberals are clearly more competent people'
    • His 'absolutely repugnant' support was rejected by Biden's campaign team
    • A spokesman said Spencer was part of the 'vile forces of hate... crawling out'
    • 'Your support is 10,000% unwelcome here' said Andrew Bates

    Never has a moderate Democrat worked so tirelessly to undermine the very party he so misleadingly claims to support. Disgusting.

    It's only effective because of propaganda, and people online who work their butts off for the right like yourself that spread innuendo that feeds misinformation.

    The Democratic party has nothing to do with "violence" that comes out of protesting racial injustice. Nothing. Never once has Tom Perez, Joe Biden, or Nancy Pelosi promoted violence.

    However the right wing propaganda infrastructure does everything they can to sensationalize and politicize anything like this that they can to strike fear in the minds of their followers, and CNN especially is completely pathetic in their ability to counter right wing propaganda, and often play right into their hands.

    The Democratic party is simply outmatched by the propaganda outlets and their online trolls (like... yeah you... sorry) who constantly pump out anti Democratic party narrative & misinformation.

    But the TRUTH.... is that the Democratic party has never promoted violence as an answer to racial injustice. It's just a fact that Republican and some independent voters will never understand because they are so highly susceptible to the propaganda that people like you spread like wildfire. If you are this bad here, I'd hate to see what your facebook looks like.

    I think people like @Os Trigonum and the "classical Liberals" (right wing essentially) believe that merely bringing up issues such as slavery and racial wealth gaps etc is stoking the fire. You don't need to express explicit violent rhetoric like GOP politicians have but the mere discussion of racist history that has led to modern events accomplishes nothing besides angering black people into rioting and looting.

    That is the proper way to respond when racists try and show their support. Trump has yet to do this even once.

    Right I mean that's a good Devils Advocate explanation, but even though yes we know this will be their explanation for "why" it's the Dems fault, it still doesn't speak to what the hell the Dems are supposed to do about anything?

    Black man is murdered in cold blood on Camera. What do the Dems do?

    -Show support for those who are angered publicly: "YOU ARE INCITING RIOTS!!!"
    -Stay silent: "DEMS DO NOTHING FOR AFRICAN AMERICANS.... WHAT THE HELL DO YOU HAVE TO LOSE WITH TRUMP!!!??"
    -Back the Blue & Say Let's Just Wait for the Facts: "!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" ... basically every African American, person of color, or Liberal's heads explode

    So why are we and why are the media even giving the right wing propaganda machine the win here by even discussing criticism for the Dems on this? The issue isn't with the Democrats.... ITS THE FU*$KING COPS who kill unarmed black men because of whatever reason and typically get away with it.

    Connecting "Riots" to Democrats is just on it's face a bad faith argument, and it's a shame so many don't shut down this obviously propaganda attempt right smack dab there on the spot.

    This is how a President should address the situation going on LE shootings and killings of black men and also with the rioting that is happening. He should be showing sympathy to the victims but also stating how the rioting is hurting neighborhoods. Not blaming governors and mayors. Not saying that this stuff is going to happen under your political opponent. Calling for unity and not striking more fear.

    Biden: 'Burning down communities is not protest'

    Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden on Wednesday pushed for calm amid an outbreak of violent protests in Kenosha, Wis., over the police shooting of a Black man, saying that destroying property and burning down neighborhoods will not achieve racial justice.

    Speaking into a camera for a video he released over Twitter, Biden expressed anger over the police shooting of Jacob Blake, who was shot in the back by police as he entered his SUV in front of his children over the weekend.

    “What I saw on that video makes me sick,” Biden said.

    But Biden denounced the violence that has unfolded as part of demonstrations in Kenosha in recent days.

    A young man was arrested on Wednesday after two people were fatally shot in Kenosha on Tuesday night. President Trump said he’s sending the National Guard into the city following three days of protests that have included buildings being set on fire and businesses being destroyed.

    “Burning down communities is not protest, it’s needless violence,” Biden said. “Violence that endangers lives. Violence that guts businesses and shutters businesses that serve the community. That’s wrong.”

    Trump and his campaign have been casting the president as the law-and-order candidate. They’ve accused Biden and the Democrats of ignoring the violent aspects of the protests and have alleged that the Democratic-controlled cities are allowing criminal activity in the streets.

    Biden quoted Jacob Blake’s mother, who denounced the damage that has been done to the community following her son’s shooting.

    "This doesn’t reflect my son or my family," Julia Jackson said.

    Biden on Wednesday said he spoke with Blake’s family and told them “justice must be done.”

    “It’s horrible what they saw," Biden said. "Watching their father get shot. Like Gianna Floyd, they’re asking why? Why daddy? Put yourself in the shoes of every black father and black mother in the country and ask, is this what we want America to be? Is this the country we should be? I said after George Floyd’s murder, protesting brutality is a right and absolutely necessary."

    "So let’s unite and heal, do justice, end the violence and end the systemic racism in this country now," he added.
