the 48 hours of equivocation and the nod to the potential pardon of racist Sheriff Joe Arpaio
renders this statement hollow.

And yet people will applaud Trump for standing up against the Nazis when it's obvious where he stands.
Rip him out of office.
Like, when he's back in the White House, have the army just storm in and haul him the fuck out. Truly disgusting monster.

You don't get to bring friends.
Take less than 2 days to confirm he doesn't care as well but I'd rather he confirmed it
Petty fuck indeed

Oh good, we're in the "Shut up! I said it, didn't I?" phase.
Literally like a kid being told to apologise, them saying it under their breath, and refusing to do it properly.
You can totally tell the deciding factor was that someone persuaded him with the idea that all he would have to do is read out a statement to appease the Reps, and then he gets to scream about Fake Media and the unsatisfied Dems as much as he wants.

Where's the list of things he condemned before he said he doesn't support white supremacists again?
Yep. He's such a fucking petulant child.

Let's see, did the "remarks" somehow resurrect the three dead people?
Nope.
Hmm, maybe satisfaction is not in the forecast.

He says that like he wouldn't have made that second statement if it wasn't for the flak he was getting. He was probably expecting huge praise for saying it.
There's honoring their memory and the tragedy this is. He's not managing that much, if anything he just used this as an excuse to bitch about the media again. FUCK. HIM.
Which is worse?
Him bitching about "fake news" again or implication that he made remarks against his will in attempt to please media?

This man is petty. He can't help himself, he ALWAYS has to go after the media when he gets criticized, what a fucking baby.

Lmao lmao lmao
The latter obviously, but that he combined the two just made him all the more reprehensible. He does NOT give a fuck, and this just cements why they criticized his hollow gesture.

Huh. As much as I like Army of Darkness, I never thought it would be politically relevant.

Jeff Sessions has a voice that just sounds good one boy. I wouldn't be surprised if he has a couple pointy hoods in his closet.

I think at this point between those two options I'd say they're both the same.

This is why Trump forced himself to do the Re-do speech:
http://www.gallup.com/poll/201617/gallup-daily-trump-job-approval.aspx
Trump's Approval numbers are at an all-time low on the Gallup daily tracker at 34% approval and 61% disapprove. There is pure damage control because even the people in the WH can read poll numbers so someone finally convinced him he had to say something. Also it was becoming impossible for WH cabinet members and officials to go on TV trying to defend his statements, it was an untenable situation all-around.
The moment to make this speech was several days ago, so for the vast majority of the people this speech doesn't mean much. But what the speech does accomplish is that conservative outlets like Fox News and Republicans can turn the page on the matter because they can now say "Trump said all the right words!".

Oh, so he read a prepared statement, great
Trump is a racist in his heart and it's common knowledge

I notice the implication that he said the additional remarks to satisfy the press.
Pull all of them down.

Wood's best movie is Once Upon a Time in America. He plays an asshole very much like himself in it though.
You hear that? It's the winds of change.

I can't believe he's stupid enough to publicly admit he only made that statement in an attempt to appease the media not because he believed it.
