"Democrats move to formally censure Trump over Charlottesville"

Via Drudge:  “A president of the United States cannot support neo-Nazis. It’s just beyond the pale,” said Rep. Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., a member of the House Judiciary Committee. “I hope Republicans who have expressed outrage with what he said put their money where their mouth is.”

Just three Democrats have signed onto the measure, but Nadler says he expects more to follow.

For failure to adequately virtue signal.

I would like to say to them, get a life, but that is their life at the present time.

If you need a "leader" to remind you that Nazis and racists are bad, you might just be
(1) a Nazi;
(2) a racist;
(3) pathetically needy in some other way that I don't even want to contemplate.

Because you cannot call out the mask wearing baseball bat wielding anti-free speech fascists on the left.

Nadler is a fat, loud jerk, but most people know that.

This is a guess on my part, but I'll bet the numbers show Trump has th3e support on this one.

Nadler supported the Iran deal. He's fine with state-sponsored hate and violence so long as it's a CURRENT State actor and not one that's long since been defeated and disgraced, like the Confederacy or the Third Reich.
Third Reich: BAD
Current Reich: Totally fine with that, no problem. Say, how about some stacks of cash?

This concludes today's episode of Profiles in Righteous Courage.

Is Nadler a gonad toucher?

"We Surrender! We Surrender!" say the gonadless Republicans.

The Big Lie. You would think that the volks at Auschwitz would reject the technique. Here it is in practice from the AP, paragraph 4:

WARSAW, Poland (AP) -- The memorial site of Auschwitz-Birkenau appears to have weighed in on the debate over U.S. President Donald Trump's response to the outpouring of anti-Semitic and racially charged hatred in Charlottesville, Virginia.

The state museum wrote Thursday on Twitter: "One of the hardest lessons for us today. Perpetrators were people. They accepted an ideology that rationalized and promoted hatred & evil."

Beneath the words is a photo of Auschwitz officers and guards smiling and having fun.

The message was posted in several languages two days after Trump made comments which appeared to rationalize the actions of neo-Nazis and white supremacists who marched in Virginia.

A museum spokesman told The Associated Press that people are free to interpret the message as they wish.

Trump "supported" the Nazis? "Rationalized" the Nazis?
When? How?

The only basis for these claims is the wish-fulfillment of overwrought media and leftists, people who in their hysterical need to undermine Trump have raised actual racist Nazis up into the national spotlight where they are now starring as the villains in the new movie "America the Racist Shame! Shaaaaaame!" while all the nazis and racists of the world, including those fauxantifascists who were also involved in Charlottesville, point and laugh. If the media, the left and the establishment right had not insisted on belaboring and misrepresenting Trump's virtue signalling failure the naziracist losers would have scuttled right back under their rocks never to be heard from again. (Other than the asshole who's going to be on death row shortly.) Now they get to double down on their delusional sense of grievance while the rest of us are blamed for allowing them to exist.

50 years from now there will be tape of a CNN panel smugly larfing it up while righteously calling for speech bans and, if time allows, a good ole fashioned witch burnin'. FUN!

He didn't get in line supporting our Stalinist allies. He's basically the same as George S Patton.

I thought I recall Trump saying he rejected Nazis and white supremacists. Did I imagine that?
