Oklahoma City bank explosion plot

If the suspect would have succeeded who here thinks that Trump and others would have jumped to conclusions and blamed it on Islamic terrorism?

Trump tower

Will he even see the crowd when he gets there. Or is he going to be shielded via another entrance?

"It's my heritage!"

The "It's my heritage!" is a dumb argument that these people like to make to show that these confederate symbols have nothing to do with racism. But that heritage would be one of treason and fighting against the United States. The same people who love these symbols are the same people who are mad at Colin Kapernic.

Confederate Generals more glorified

It seems like Confederate generals are glorified more than their Union counterparts. You take Robert e lee for example, his supporters have spun history to make it seem like he was this Nobel person who didn't believe in slavery and wasn't racist. He was just standing up for his state. And that he was a better general than Grant, but just didn't have the resources.

"Many sides"

By saying many sides Trump is catering to his racist white base. These people are suburbanites or live in rural areas who don't necessarily identify themselves with the alt right, neo nazis, or KKK but who also resent "the others" for a variety of stupid reasons. These people are the ones I fear and are scarier than the racists who were in Virginia today.

Venezuela?

So because his domestic agenda isn't going well, and because of the Mueller investigation Trump is trying to change the subject and look tough with not just North Korea, but now Venezuela.

Just like Iraq

The U.S. Military can easily destroy North Korea and remove Kim Jung Un. The problem is the aftermath just like Iraq. "You break it, you own it"
