Not all Republicans are white supremacists......

[USALiberal]

But no doubt all white supremacists are Republicans!

Why is all of the GOP leadership not denouncing White Supremacists???????? Do they really want/need their votes?

1. They need their votes

It's a major segment of their base. Those are the people who stayed home in 2008 and 2012 and didn't vote for McCain or Romney. They need those votes to win.

2. Yes, they really want and need their votes.

Those people are the "base" of the Republican Party. Most elected Republicans are frightened to death about losing those votes, so they avoid condemning such people. In the end, it may be just that that costs them their phony baloney jobs. One can only hope.

3. It makes me hate the GOP even more. How can you want those votes? Disgusting! n.t

5. Yes. The sad truth is that many of our elected officials

have compromised themselves through dependence on people who are the scum of the earth. May they reap the consequences of their associations.

4. They have always KNOWN about these supremacists...

It was exactly why they feigned such offense at them being properly labelled as "Deplorables" last year. Americans who voted for and remain supporters of Trump and the GOP have declared their intentions and allegiance and they are the enemy, period.

6. This is a natural progression from the TEA Party movement...

which was never, of course, about a black man being president.

Oh, no.

9. I think this had its roots a littler earlier with Palin.
