John Roberts wanted a “definitive and unambiguous” statement from the Trump administration condemning white supremacists. He didn’t get it.
If the first “sh*t storm” of a presidential debate between Joe Biden and Donald Trump is remembered for anything (although I pray that it’s forgotten and never spoken of again), it will be for the president refusing to condemn white supremacists. Even Fox News, which generally sides with Trump on, well, everything, has been criticizing #45. Fox & Friends host Brian Kilmeade said on Wednesday that he “ruined the biggest layup in the history of debates by not condemning white supremacists,” while John Roberts is “tired” of the president’s refusal to say anything bad about the far-right group Proud Boys.
