Making the kind of the statements he made earlier were very divisive.

I'm so frustrated i have no idea what to do.

Like there are some good guys protesting the statue.
Equating Lee to Washington and Jefferson. Equating Nazis with any other group
Robert E Lee is a hero to some at that makes it A-Ok

Regarding the media hysteria over his comments.....members of his OWN PARTY are hanging their heads in shame ( see Gen Kelly)

As my own personal aside, did the piece of shit douchebag indicate he "knows more than anyone else" about the events that transpired. Really? How so? Why? What does he know?

These talking points are a waste of time. Nobody is going to defend Nazis, it's a bad plan

implying strongly his support for the actions on the Right/Nazis (basically, whining that the Left gets away with murder, so why can't WE??);

trying to diminish this historic episode;

telling us that America's enemies are not the Neo-Nazis, heirs to Hitlerism, but the "extremists on the left"---thereby giving the alt-Right HIS IMPRIMATUR TO COMMIT MORE VIOLENCE AGAINST THE LEFT.
