National republicans are running for the hills. Offering sops like red flag laws. They have now become part of the republican do nothing kit. ![Laughing :lol:](./images/smilies/icon_lol.gif)

...even MDLF76 might find something in it to agree with, if he stoops to read a FNC contributor in a far right blog like NRO.

He also distinguishes it from White Supremacy more than he equates them.
His " needle in the haystack " analogy is entirely apt. There is no established global organization which all White Supremacists have in common.

But it's OK to have a President with such profound character flaws as long as the economy is doing OK (or at least being kept afloat long enough to secure reelection), right? We are at a Rubicon, and I'm not optimistic.Trinity wrote: ↑Wed Aug 07, 2019 4:46 pm Trump made a campaign ad in Dayton, insulted local officials and flew away. The press pool was told the hospital visit was private to respect the wounded victims. Not a photo op. Then they rolled in their own cameras and cut an ad. You can see it online already. Violins and everything. Brave Trumpy. Saving America. Totally normal. Watch it. Trump tweeted it. You’ve never seen a happier president. At a massacre. The WH is tweeting that Trump was treated like a “rock star.” This trip is to soothe Trump, not the other way around. Now he’s whining about Shep on Fox. Isn’t there something Bill Barr can do? Everyone is so mean.

Hardly an organized militia or terrorist training camp.
