During the first presidential debate, Trump said far-right white supremacist groups should 'stand back and stand by.'

"Within the domestic terrorism bucket, the category as a whole, racially motivated violent extremism is, I think, the biggest bucket within that larger group. And within the racially motivated violent extremist bucket, people subscribing to some kind of white supremacist-type ideology is certainly the biggest chunk of that," FBI Director Christopher Wray, who was appointed by Trump in 2017, said during congressional testimony on September 17.

The president and other members of his administration have repeatedly attempted to deflect attention from far-right violence by pointing to aggressive actions from far-left demonstrators. But analysts and experts have repeatedly explained that the comparison is flawed. While some far-left supporters of the Antifa movement have carried out acts of violence, the level of violence from the far right is dramatically higher.

Many quickly condemned Trump for his response to Wallace's question about white supremacists during the debate.

I looked up the “ proud boys” I agree with a lot of what they are saying but not everything. Ok for black pride but not white pride? Come one. White built the civilized world the modern world. Let’s all be neat and organized. Let’s not be Hillbillies. There’s no excuse for that.

Baffled? Why? It’s pretty CLEAR AS DAY since day 1! The man is a racist!!! I don’t know how much clearer you need it to be!

I wasn't baffled. Y'all really expected him to condemn his supporters?

Do not forget Biden also said Antifa doesn't exist.

It's an idea, not a group.

I am still in disbelief but just about the overall performance 😭

Because that is who Trump is.

Not when you are evil.

I am baffled why he is baffled. I have known since the 1980s that Trump is a racist. His comportment and actions speak volumes.

Why didn't Trump denounce white supremacists at the debate? Why didn't The President denounce white supremacists at the debate? Why didn't the commander and chief denounce white supremacists at the debate?

DONALD TRUMP YOUR VOTERS AND FALSE PROPHETS ARE NOT CHRISTIAN ! CHRISTIANS DO NOT SUPPORT ANGER AND DEATH TO THE BROTHER OF ANY ETHNIES, WHETHER BY COLOR,OR SOCIAL POSITION,I SAID:YOU WILL LOVE YOUR LORD GOD WITH ALL YOUR HEART AND LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR LIKE YOURSELF.I AM MESSIAH

Fox News Would Rather Not Admit Trump Is a Giant CrookA massive New York Times report on Trump’s tax fraud was too big for even Fox News to ignore. Instead, they brought on Don Jr. to play defense. Vanity Fair looks in the mirror doing for Democrats and Biden what they claim fox does for Trump. We never suspected VF of real journalism so we're not disappointed It doesn’t surprise me that Vanity Fair and all Dem sycophants would magically disregard their own efforts at reducing their own tax burden just so they can disparage someone else. There is a word for this-hypocrisy. I just took a few minutes to stare at this photo. Is the the face of a normal, sane, man? He’s got his best lying man expression. But look at that plastered, messy, ridiculous orange smudge, with the odd, white eyes and ring around the lips, in contrast with his hands. Not normal

Fox News Lobotomizes Its ‘Brain Room,’ Cuts Fact-Based JournalismThe recent mass layoffs at Fox News—an estimated body count of around 70, amounting to a little less than 3 percent of the cable channel’s workforce—signal what current and former employees describe as the purposeful devaluing of fact-based journalism in favor of right-wing opinion, race-baiting, and Is that a fact? . F-ACTS O-MITTING X-ENOPHOBES . They should not be allowed to use News in their name. Maybe Fox Opinion would do justice
