Charlottesville Protests: 15 Things Donald Trump Has Condemned In The Past

1) Sadiq Khan.
LOADINGERROR LOADING

Donald Trump has refused to outright denounce white supremacy, Nazis and racism after a far-right rally turned violent in the US city of Charlottesville.

Three people died - one 32-year-old woman, who was hit when a car ploughed into a crowd and two state troopers, whose helicopter crashed outside the city while responding to the situation ― and at least 35 others were injured in the Virginia city on Saturday.

But rather than specifically speaking out in criticism of members of the Ku Klux Klan, the white supremacists or the neo-Nazis who brought torches and bats to the rally, the US president blamed the unrest on “many sides.”

A White House statement on Sunday hardly clarified matters, saying Trump condemned “all forms of violence, bigotry and hatred” including “white supremacists, KKK, Neo-Nazi and all extremist groups” but still failing to single it out.

But the President isn’t usually this reluctant to condemn things as the following list shows...

1) Sadiq Khan

Pathetic excuse by London Mayor Sadiq Khan who had to think fast on his "no reason to be alarmed" statement. MSM is working hard to sell it!

Trump criticized both sides equally in the #Charolettesville violence—but one side is avowedly racist. What kind of leader does that?

2) Canada

Canada has made business for our dairy farmers in Wisconsin and other border states very difficult. We will not stand for this. Watch!

How do racist, neo-nazis still exist in 2017? Disgusting😷 people like that have no place anywhere #Charolettesville

3) Kristen Stewart

Robert Pattinson should not take back Kristen Stewart. She cheated on him like a dog & will do it again--just watch. He can do much better!

Robert I'm getting a lot of heat for saying you should dump Kristen- but I'm right. If you saw the Miss Universe girls you would reconsider.

4) Snoop Dogg

Can you imagine what the outcry would be if @SnoopDogg, failing career and all, had aimed and fired the gun at President Obama? Jail time!

5) The Election That He Won

The election is absolutely being rigged by the dishonest and distorted media pushing Crooked Hillary - but also at many polling places - SAD

Which is #Charolettesville 2017 & which is Hitler's SA in Berlin 1932?

Actually, both C-ville. That's how bad it got—Can't tell difference pic.twitter.com/Kl3cwzRMq9

6) Global Warming

The concept of global warming was created by and for the Chinese in order to make U.S. manufacturing non-competitive.

7) US Citizens Infected With Ebola

The U.S. cannot allow EBOLA infected people back. People that go to far away places to help out are great-but must suffer the consequences!

8) Arnie

Arnold Schwarzenegger isn't voluntarily leaving the Apprentice, he was fired by his bad (pathetic) ratings, not by me. Sad end to great show

Militia on the streets #Charolettesville and people nonchalantly turn their backs.

9) Arianna Huffington

.@ariannahuff is unattractive both inside and out. I fully understand why her former husband left her for a man- he made a good decision.

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 28, 2012

During the Jim Crow era, the KKK wore hoods to protect their identities. Now the hoods are off. They have the White House. #Charolettesville

10) A Shop

My daughter Ivanka has been treated so unfairly by @Nordstrom. She is a great person -- always pushing me to do the right thing! Terrible!

11) Celebs

Watched protests yesterday but was under the impression that we just had an election! Why didn't these people vote? Celebs hurt cause badly.

12) Comedians

Kathy Griffin should be ashamed of herself. My children, especially my 11 year old son, Barron, are having a hard time with this. Sick!

The only time any American should be holding a Nazi flag is if it is won in battle.

Any other occasion is deplorable. #Charolettesville pic.twitter.com/ILPHLzPpDQ

13) Transgender People

....victory and cannot be burdened with the tremendous medical costs and disruption that transgender in the military would entail. Thank you

14) Opinion Polls

After 200 days, rarely has any Administration achieved what we have achieved..not even close! Don't believe the Fake News Suppression Polls!

— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) August 8, 2017

But the incitement of hatred that got us here is as real and condemnable as the white supremacists in our streets.

— Hillary Clinton (@HillaryClinton) August 12, 2017

15) His Own Attorney General

Attorney General Jeff Sessions has taken a VERY weak position on Hillary Clinton crimes (where are E-mails & DNC server) & Intel leakers!
