New Trump ‘Plan’ Equates KKK And ‘Antifa’ | Talking Points Memo

“Nothing,” you might think. One group has terrorized Black Americans for generations and the other is not really a group at all, just a term for “anti-fascist.”

Yes, Black Americans, you don’t need to worry that “antifa” will be cited as the reason they feds move in on any BLM organized protests.

Do the KK still has any meaningful membership? I though they had all migrated to the Oathkeepers, the Proud Boys and other more 21st Century gangs.

First of all, seriously, “Platinum Plan”? Is that like when you get six weeks at the time-share instead of four or two? He’s just the cheesiest cheap pitchman of all time, it makes your flesh creep how small-timey he really is. He’s got the soul of a plaid-sport-jacketed cigar-chomping used car salesman, that one.

Secondly, the unaffiliated people who call themselves antifa seem to have no political goals to their terror other than terrorizing white supremacists into staying the hell home. No political goals, it’s really not “terrorism.” It’s more a “thing you use as a bugaboo.”

Trump doing this, along with the “aid” and “Juneteenth”, is a coded message:

“I’m down to this.”
