Just remember, the new Nazis didn't start at Charlottesville and they weren't always "alt-right"

Trump supporters call for “liberal genocide” and deportation of Jews at Arizona rally

Maricopa County burnished its reputation as the Trumpiest in America last weekend (Back in March) as hundreds of locals, including heavily armed militamen, white nationalists and even a few elected officials, gathered to support the 45th president. The ensuing “March for Trump” was as horrifying as it sounds.

Some even dared to tell Dan Cohen of the The Real News Network how they’d make America great again now that Trump was in office. And Muslims weren’t the only religious minority unwelcomed.

“If she’s Jewish, she should go back to her country,” a 13-year-old Trump supporter said of a protester.

“I just want to let them know that I can’t wait for the liberal genocide to begin,” an Oath Keeper shouted at a small group of protesters.

Where was the pseudo-condemnation of this? Where was the "but both sides"?

I also don't expect much in the way of condemning the anti-Semitism either. The only way anti-Semitism is interesting to many is if they can participate by kvetching about this Jew or that Jew and his/her lack of response or some other bullshit, or when in a lurch simply blurt out "Israel!" After all, we have those who think Jews are disloyal anyway and Jewish senators/representatives are So-n-So (D -Tel Aviv).
