Yes it did, Yes they did, and Yes he did. And that was a big newsworthy event.

2 dozen marching on DC was a "Nothingburger" that should have been ignored. instead it was national news

Somebody should have told the police they didn't need to show up.

Well, Antifa still showed up, so......

I'm surprised CNN didn't run a headline that "Dozens of Police Show in Support" with pictures of them at the march. Might as well multi-task while they are at it.

It's a news story that there are 24 white racists out there. We didn't know that until now? 24 people, whew, we better get cracking down on that movement Then Antifa showed up dressed like ninjas and started rioting.

you struggle to differentiate between what’s moronic, and what you really really don’t want to believe.

i got your point. it’s very easy to lob baseless insults. a lot harder to tell me i’m wrong when i say that she’s a moron. make fun of me for saying it all day long, but maybe eventually you can tell me why i’m wrong.

A moron is a stupid person. I don't think she's stupid, she graduated with honors from a good university. She's just an inexperienced politician who likely doesn't get the hate machine trying to oppose her.

For 28 she's doing pretty well.
