I never thought that Trump saying "stand back and stand by" proved much either. He said it exasperatedly after being prompted by live questioning to condemn them, and "stand by" could have been a simple unfortunate use of language. Perhaps he really meant "stand down". Trump isn't exactly a master of vocabulary or language or coherent thought.

Wouldn't you agree, though, that Trump has had more than ample opportunity to clarify his statement, to express his objection to the Proud Boyz violent neo-fascist m.o. ?

So, why hasn't he, and why doesn't, he condemn the Proud Boyz, white nationalists, and religios that are weaponizing 'christianity'? Of course we both know the answer.

McCain had a moment when he famously corrected a white woman about Barak Obama's status as an American. He paid dearly for being honest and honorable in that moment.
