Remember what Maxine Waters said about confronting republicans, the this happened

"A Republican candidate for the Minnesota House said Monday that he is recovering after suffering a concussion from an attack at a restaurant in St. George Township a few days earlier."

Here is why this defense against Trump from people who support him doesn't work.  When you thrown in Maxine Waters into the mix and then post a message like this you are not defending Trump, you are actually proving everyone right.  So if Maxine was wrong in what she said and used her influence to cause violence then does this not make Trump just as guilty if not worst.  In other words, you are willing to condemn one but absolve the other instead of condemning both.  This is why siding with a political party or a person without admitting to their flaws make it seems you are radicalize.  They both should be condemned for their words and their actions.

I think there seems to be a yuuge disconnect here. I’m feeling they’re saying you’re doing exactly what you’re saying they’re doing.

Maybe we can all agree that there rhetoric on both sides and we should condemn/not condemn them equally regardless of the political affiliation we agree with?
