    He equated the two sides. They weren't equal. He wasn't speaking to statue removal in general. He was addressing that protest organized by white supremacists who were chanting antisemitic slogans, and carrying tiki torches. No very fine people saw that and continued to participate on the side of the white supremacists. To try and equate the people on both sides is unpresidential, and possibly worse. It excuses those that chose to join with the white nationalists. One of those white nationalists murdered a counter protestor. No counter protestors murdered the white nationalists.

    If this is how the majority of Harris voters think, it’s no mystery why she lost.

    unchecked racism in here. I hope this isn’t how most dems feel. If it is, that’s why we lost.

    So many of you are completely lost

    People who join to support protests started by self labeled white nationalists to keep a statue of a person most famous for being a traitor to keep slaves are at the very least white nationalist sympathizers.

    He condemned neo nazis and white nationalists totally. You just see what you want to see. You actually want Trump to be a white nationalist. That’s what you want. He isn’t.

    My statement I am about to make does in NO WAY defend those that are paying substandard wages, but if folks are complaining about high food prices now wait until the individuals get proper wages, there will be price increases.

    Not related to migrant workers but:
    My job has given me a fair amount of knowledge of where produce is coming from during off growing season here in the USA.
    If tariffs are put in place on imports from Mexico, Chile, Canada other heavy exporters of produce it will mean the end of a lot of mom and pop restaurants. You can only pass so much cost on to the public before they grab a Cheeseburger from McDonalds except on special occasions.
    If lower income individuals know they can get a Mc double for 2.99 what is the incentive to go buy a bunch of broccoli Florette's that are the same cost, but you don't have to go to the store, trim it, and cook it. and fight with your kids to eat it.

    I say we stop importing all Kale from China the worlds #1 exporter. Not because I have hate for China, but because I have HATE FOR KALE.

    You are way more of a racist than Trump could ever pretend to be.

    You understand that is a age old right wing tactic right? Narrowly define the concept of white nationalists or neo-Nazis to people who explicitly shout the N word with the hard R, explicitly say "I hate N word" or "I hate Jews" and wear nazi regalia to defelct from people expressing and defending white nationalism.

    Preventing imports for food to mitigate harm from tariffs is fruitless because domestic agriculture is near 100% mechanized. Guess where the replacement parts are sourced for maintenance?

    Brainwashed idiots in here who can’t comprehend what they read.

    It’s no wonder we lost. I wish some of you would leave the democratic party. You’re killing us.

    No wonder why you keep on defending a dude who says stuff like "migrants poison the blood of this nation" as not racist.


    You are right that we all lost when Trump won.

    You are really smart. That was clever, just repeating someone else. Your politics are not clever though.

    We lost because of people with your stupid mentality. You are nothing but a low life race baiter who truly hates a certain race. Not a small demographic of that race , but a whole entire race of people.

    Minority votes increased by a ton this time around. Other minorities are distancing themselves from idiots like you. You are on the wrong side of history bro. America is waking up to people like you and they spoke through the election. They will again too.

    I saw an episode of i believe 60 minutes of a watermelon farm in Georgia. They asked the owner. "How many white people do you have working on the farm?" The answer was "Beyond management? None. No Americans want to do this work"

    i said i dont know if he is a white supremacist. but its a fact that he engages in their rhetoric and aligns himself with them.

    also, you previously said trump lost because "the left" pointed out that he plays the victim card all the time and now youre saying its because he is accused of being a white supremacist. neither of those is correct, btw.

    its odd that you are getting to defensive and upset about people criticizing someone you claim you didnt vote for.

    I mentioned that he condemned them. I said that in my initial post on the matter. I never denied that. However, providing that lip service doesn't erase his equating the two sides. They weren't equal and to call people who marched in support of the white nationalists who organized the rally, should be called out.
