Nazis.

This past Saturday, a woman was killed for standing up against Nazis. The same day, the President blamed those who stood up against the Nazis, as well as the Nazis.

The problem is that Trump sees a Nazi rally happening and says nothing, then when violence breaks out blames “many sides”.

Compare that to blaming “many sides” when Nazi Germans invaded France and Poland. Compare that to blaming “many sides” when the Tsarnaevs bombed the Boston marathon, or when any other evil that must be opposed, opposition too gets equal blame.

The energy granted from Trumps campaign to Nazis has grown the movement, it is now a “thing” among the up and coming generation to spread Nazi like hate. It is all over the internet, in unprecedented levels in our lifetime, among a frenzied misdirected youth. These are dark times, and even darker when it goes by and doesn’t get called out by our leadership. At least some leaders have called it out for what it is, but many more are trying to rationalize away the refusal to push the blame squarely on Nazis. I do not recognize the nation I grew up in, I don’t know how those whose family fought against Nazi Germany can either.

This apology is too late and possibly signals to the nazi groups that Trump is doing this because of pressure, which can continue to embolden them.
