Charlottesville.
Home of the Dave Matthews Band, and as of this weekend, this:

Yes, that crash into a crowd of protesters is the direct result of white supremacists coming into Charlottesville for a “Unite the Right” campaign on the heels of the removal of a statue of Confederate icon, General Robert E. Lee. According to one person, this is an attempt to take the country back.

That is David Duke, former leader of the Ku Klux Klan and newest messenger for Trump. This man and his ilk are “working extremely hard” to make good on what Trump promises. Apparently, these promises are to make this country stupid, violent, and intolerant. Or, to remake Deliverance. I don’t know, I get the two of them so confused sometimes.
One of the primary figureheads of the rioting was far-right speaker Richard B. Spencer. He was “self-scheduled” to bring America back to its rightful owners with Nazi-laden rhetoric. Something he has a known history of, and it leading to consequences.

Ho, damn! This guy got knocked the fuck out, Al Roker style! Something distinctly tells me this guy will not be receiving any invitations to the BET Awards or be a keynote speaker at the NAACP.
There would be nobody that would know Richard Spencer better than his high-school classmate, Graeme Wood, political writer for The Atlantic. The guests at the Reason’s annual Christmas bash involved him, Spencer, and Christopher Hitchens. Spencer had told Wood that “he had blossomed intellectually since high school.” That sounds like every college student says; they become “woke” once they are in college. Like Hitchens, Spencer was a known atheist, but “longed for Christianity before the churches surrendered to folk-singing liberals and televangelists.
That should’ve been a warning sign.
A bigger warning sign should have been seen when Wood graduated in 1997, and left for the Ivy League, leaving mediocre Richard Spencer behind. But, by monitoring Spencer’s activities, he stumbled upon finding out that he began coining the term, “alt-right”, incidentally, around 2008, the year Barack Obama became president.
So, what did Trump do? Did he condemn it? Yes, but in a measly, half-assed way:

No, no, no. This was not “bigotry on all sides.” I didn’t see any black people, Muslims, Asians, nope. Nobody except for WHITE NATIONALISTS. It’d be like your mother addressing your siblings and yourself after Dylan threw a temper-tantrum inside the grocery store.
“We condemn this kind of behavior from all three of you.”
Dylan was the one that acted up. Neither myself nor my sister Sophie acted up. Put Dylan in timeout.
Come to think of it, somebody should’ve put Trump in timeout after fucking up the opportunity to condemn white nationalists.
