Yeah I will always hold it against him that he didn't say something like "bad people on both sides" or whatever, it was such unnecessary ammunition for the left and he said some people on the left were good, which is obviously tautologically false. The left cheers for the nazis in Ukraine but when they march in Charlottesville they screech in horror. Proof the left knows nothing beyond what they are told and they don't ask questions.

I can't believe this is still a thing. There is no context he said what he said. All this mind reading and implications are stupid. Of course they still believe the Steele dossier, Rittenhouse shot black people, and hands up.

It's all fake and they don't even try to hide it. They gaslight you over and over.

Editors' Note: Some readers have raised the objection that this fact check appears to assume Trump was correct in stating that there were "very fine people on both sides" of the Charlottesville incident. That is not the case. This fact check aimed to confirm what Trump actually said, not whether what he said was true or false. For the record, virtually every source that covered the Unite the Right debacle concluded that it was conceived of, led by and attended by white supremacists, and that therefore Trump was wrong.

White supremacist is a ridiculous label, and I don't care. I guess if those guys are going to fight over why Trump supports or doesn't support white supremacists, then you can go ahead and argue what that means.

Only took them 7 years when anyone with a brain could find the truth of this in 7 seconds the day of.

And James Fields is still rotting away in prison, for trying to get away from an armed mob.
