Alex Jones is already taking that tack. It’s in another article here on TPM.

Trump’s delay was all the signal the racists needed that he was with them. They always understood that Trump’s silence was untenable, and that he would eventually need to play the well worn racist’s game of plausible deniability merely by making some obviously insincere statement. Meanwhile, the Republican Congress continues it’s own silence on the highly destructive Presidency this treasonous, criminal and anti-American asshole. Makes one wonder exactly what Tump would have to do to force them to defend nation.

Shame on us. How did we allow this scum of the earth creep up on us? How did we not see them infesting our political system, the white house, our schools, our churches and all walks of life.
How did we allow Russia/GOP to let this scum of the earth creep up on us?
FIFY
I think it began by allowing them to maintain their conceited lies about the evil nature of the Confederacy after we defeated it. Subsequently permitting them, even to this day, to erect statues to and wave the flags of a traitorous movement which made war on and killed the service members of the United States of America was a huge mistake. How does the losing side in an war get such freedom? I also feel that whites are too loath to call out other whites for their racism and bigotry. Most racists proudly admit their racist beliefs.

Well, wait a minute, if the counter-demonstrators would not have showed up, there would have been no violence at all.
Exactly. Just like, if slaves hadn’t tried to run away or act as if they had any rights at all as human beings, no one would have had to chop off body parts, burn them or rape them. When it comes right down to it, it’s Kunta Kinte’s fault that someone ran into a bunch of people with his car over the weekend.
“I am pleased with what Donald Trump said,” Johnson added. “The only solution for the festering racism of this country is separation and the creation of a white ethnostate.”
Or possibly another solution would be to accept the fact that many people were born here because millions of their ancestors were assaulted and kidnapped from their homelands and forcibly brought over here. Short of that, how about GTFO and build your own nation far away from this one.

This is only so the Fox & Friends watching old folk can say “see? Trump is not a racist, he denounced the white supremacists!” Everybody else (including the fascists and skinheads) knows that it was insincere and know where his true feelings are.

I think the Nazis are trying very hard to cut Trump a lot of slack because they’ve never had an open advocate in the WH before. That’s why this latest statement doesn’t mean anything without the firing of Bannon, Gorka and Miller, but especially Bannon.

What the hell are republicans waiting for? The sunovabitch has to go!
Of course they love it. His statement today had all the sincerity of a hostage video. All the mumbling, looking down and sniffing to signal to his racist followers “nothing to worry about, they forced me to read this.”

I am still amazed at the arm in arm marching of Confederate Flag wavers and Swastica Flag wavers; mainly due to the xenophobia of the former. (but then, I’m amazed at the Frankenstein hybrid of Ayn Rand and Fundamentalist Christianity. Over just a couple generations: strange mutations and recombinations)

Advocating for “separation and the creation of a white
ethnostate”
What would this place be like? Bland food? Though taco trucks and halal carts would be able to park on its fortified border.
Bad TV lots of Fox News and Sinclair.
Lawrence Welk would pull in awesome ratings.
Trump care with a selection of blood sucking leach practioners and anti vaccine quacks.

“Trump comments were good. He didn’t attack us,” Andrew Anglin, founder of neo-Nazi site the Daily Stormer, wrote in a post. “He just said the nation should come together. Nothing specific against us.”
So now Anglin wants the nation to come together, including all the races? Somehow, I wasn’t getting that from other statements of his.

When you make easily falsifiable posts, you lose credibility. And there is an abundance of legit evidence to make use of!

There is a truly excellent history book on this subject (the coddling of racist whites after the Civil War) if you want to look deeper: David Blight, Race and Reunion (http://www.hup.harvard.edu/catalog.php?isbn=9780674008199)

From the always fabulous Juanita Jean’s:
This is Peter Cvjetanovic from Reno, Nevada. He traveled all the way to Charlottesville to help his brothers represent white people.
Peter does not like this picture.
He says he’s not the angry racist this picture makes him look like.
So, please do not post this picture everywhere you can. Do not download it by putting your cursor on the picture and left clicking. Do not post the name Peter Cvjetanovic with the picture.
We wouldn’t want to hurt Peter Cvjetanovic’s feelings.
