Found about what I expected.

You do understand that Trump had a very hard time condemning groups like the Proud Boys? Did you refuse to vote for him based on that fact?

I voted for Trump because the alternative was Biden. And my understanding is that Trump condemned the Proud Boys and Antifa in much more unequivocal terms than any democrat has condemned Antifa or BLM.

Did he? And how long did it take and how many pushes did it take for him get there?

"I've said it many times, and let me be clear again: I condemn the KKK. I condemn all white supremacists. I condemn the Proud Boys. I don't know much about the Proud Boys, almost nothing. But I condemn that." - Trump, September 2020

N.B.: "...condemn the Proud Boys." Not, "condemn their violence," not "condemn some of their methods but share their concerns" or other such equivocation.

Quote:I would expect that you would find similar "condemnations" from various Democrats regarding violence from Antifa if you looked.

Nice try. Of course you'll find statements condemning violence from Antifa. What you will not find is condemnation of the "violent communist shitheads" per se. Democrat politicians do not disavow groups in their camp, however extremist or violent.
