    No, I am not misinformed. I happened to be watching CNN at the time and know the circumstances. You do not. You have already been proven wrong. I am merely trying to help you sort out your cognitive dissonance. CNN cut away from covering Charlottesville to cover Trump, who was presenting honors to a small group of military people. He had just walked in moments after the car crashed into the crowd; there were no details, and that is not what Trump was referencing.

    If you have contradicting facts, please present them.

    You are suffering from the Mandela Effect:

    Collective false memories
    Another way to describe the Mandela effect is “collective false memories.” A large group of people collectively always say a particular saying or memory a certain way when, in reality, the truth is different from memory.

    Conspiracy theorists believe the Mandela effect is an example of alternate universes present in society. However, doctors have a much different explanation of memory, and how some memories, although vivid, can be false.

    Confabulation
    Some doctors believe the Mandela effect is a form of confabulation.

    A common analogy for confabulation is “honest lying.” A person creates a false memory without intending to lie or deceive others. Instead, they’re attempting to fill in gaps in their own memory.

    Finally, I hope, do you believe that even Donald Trump would be stupid enough to say that Nazis are fine people on national television?

    A White Nationalist organized the event. That is how the guy who murdered the women found out about the rally.

    And yet blacks like Dr. Cornel West have not been stopped from earning a good living. In the US if you really want to succeed you can.

    Everyone knows that a white nationalist group organized the event.
    The issue is whether or not Trump said that Nazis are fine people. The answer is that he did not say that.
    He said that there are fine people on both sides of the monuments issue.

    Are you saying that everyone who favors keeping historical monuments are Nazis?

    Again, do you believe that Trump was stupid enough to say that Nazis are fine people on national television?

    I can't compel you to answer logical questions or show us Trump saying that Nazis are fine people.

    It is called inference. Most college freshmen know the concept.

    Wrong. It's your side!
    When it comes to race, I'm a lot closer to your side. I'm just more honest.

    Who did you vote for in this last presidential race?
    Free speech is cool as long as it jibes with our program.

    There was never a party switch as suburban sprawl occurred through economic growth and prosperity in the south, southern whites began affiliating with the Republican party as they better served their economic interests, so shove your revisionist bullshit up your lying ass faggot.

    Ya that SJW talk for putting words in peoples mouths that they didnt say, Trump firmly and unequivocally condemned the Nazis so drink bleach faggot:

    I'm not talking about the neo-Nazis and the White nationalists, because they should be condemned totally —

    “Racism is evil, and those who cause violence in its name are criminals and thugs, including the KKK, neo-Nazis, white supremacists, and other hate groups that are repugnant to everything we hold dear as Americans.”

    Trump: "As I said on -- remember, Saturday -- we condemn in the strongest possible terms this egregious display of hatred, bigotry, and violence. It has no place in America. And then it went on from there. Now, here’s the thing --"
