Scott, the only Black Republican in the Senate, was asked by a reporter about the Tuesday debate exchange during his meeting with Amy Coney Barrett, the president's Supreme Court nominee. McCarthy quickly pivoted to criticizing Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden for not calling out violence from individuals with ties to antifa, the left-wing movement that the FBI has labeled an ideology, rather than a specific group posing a security threat.
Indiana GOP Sen. Todd Young, who chairs the Senate Republicans' campaign arm, told reporters,"I condemn white supremacy, all extremist groups. I think that all of these groups are hateful, and I condemn them in the strongest terms."
Shame on you. Even a rabid skunk has more sense
Proud boys are one of groups pushing back against antifas leftist violence. You know, the guys who didnt shoot anyone. But got shot by a liberal turd. He had a can of bear mace, not a gun. Lying ass media tho....
It’s not just that realDonaldTrump said stand back and stand by...it’s that he said “stand by but somebody’s got to do something about antifa.” Subtly telling his troops to commit violence when the time is right.
NPR is a lying cesspool. There is no proof the Proud Boys are a white Supremacy supremacy group. And we know they’re not burning buildings, Looting businesses looting businesses and threatening people. Time to Defund the very Liberal NPR. DefundNPR
Considering his own agencies have talked about these groups being domestic terrorists- I'm sure trump has severe mental /cognitive issues. Or ... he's lying... either way he's not fit for office! Vote him out
Hey NPR, feeling pretty stupid over this white supremacist comment now?
Spin the Trump Answer Wheel: 1 I never met them 2 I don't know them 3 I strongly deny that
I had been a life long NPR supporter and have voted both Rep and Dem in my long life. With the recent bout of media lies I’m terrified to ever vote Dem again — you are headed straight to the East Berlin propaganda that gripped them. Balance was the key to USA success. It is lost.
yawn
please
What proof is there that the group Biden names is racist? I just saw a black leader of Proud Boys denying they are racists. Did Biden condemn Antifa violence? No. He denied their existence. Same outrage over Proud Boys? Hell No.
Less than a day after the debates the riots continue in Seattle for over 3 months the riots continue in Portland. Democrats allow these racist organizations to destroy their cities
⬇️
He said “stand down”! Liars
Trump is insulting our intelligence again. He is the president of the United States and if he didn't know who they were someone in the WH told him afterwards. But they were mentioned in context to white supremacists. Unless he he that stupid. He's playing stupid.
The 'Proud Boys' was a spoof social justice group whose founder has since quit. Who do you think they are?
Should read, President Trump lies about not knowing who the proud boys are.
He claimed to not know Stormy Daniel's and many other controversial figures also. More lies.
Trumps actions show he is a racist👎❌
How many times do you need to be asked, and answer a question before you get po'd and start snapping back.
You still want to be chasing around a goddamned liar, NPR?
Lies
Checkmate.
Is there anyway to start this election process over? I can't stand either one of these candidates.
Hilter was once the leader of the white supremacists, and see what happened to Hilter and his country. At the 1936 Berlin Games, Jesse Owens an Black American won four gold medals. That really cracked Hilter's delusions. Every person of every race has a purpose on earth.
🤨🙄
Wallace: “Are you willing to condemn white supremacists?” Trump: “Sure.” Wallace: “And to say that they need to stand down” Trump: “Sure, I’m prepared to do it. Give me a name.” Biden: “Proud Boys.” Trump: “Proud Boys, stand back & stand by.”
Good then he won't mind as we stomp their domestic terrorist asses into dust then. Because that's happening. (PBs if you haven't had your appointment feel free to come by... the doctor is in)
Trump: 'Sure, I am willing to do that (denounce White Supremacists), but everything I see is from the left-wing...' Wallace: 'Your right, there is much racism in the left, so Joe, since you more tied to it, will you denounce it as well?' Oh wait, Wallace never said that biased
Oh I sure he does know!
TrumpIsACompulsiveLiar
🖕🏿🖕🏿🖕🏿🖕🏿🖕🏿🖕🏿🖕🏿🖕🏿🖕🏿🖕🏿
DT is at best an hypocrite.
just looked up the definition of full of crap and there he was realDonaldTrump
Lolololololololol. He's lying again.
Wow. I didn't even know who the Proud Boys were UNTIL the president said their name. I had to Google them.
🧐what a liar and bully he is!
🗣️ 🎩 it's Presidential cap get it 🗣️🎩
What is so hard to comprehend here Trump ? WHITE is a color SUPREMACIST is person who think they are better than everyone. Now put the two together: White Supremacist! Duh? He said don’t call him smart...right on about that.
SOB
Always trying to save his ass ugh!
HES CONDEMNED THEM MULTIPLE TIMES OVER THE YEARS!!!
President Trump has successfully pushed everyone away from talking about his taxes.
realDonaldTrump knows exactly who they are. But more importantly the Proud Boys know who he really is.
Seriously, folks. How many times are we going to play this game? tRump says something inflammatory then when he decides it wasn’t food for his image, he says “Who, me?” Stop giving him a platform.
The Proud Boys prefer their terrorism the same way Brad Parscale prefers his violence: domestic.
There are folks both sides have their beliefs, get over it. You cannot make people change their beliefs!
Funny how Biden blurted that out after being told “say proud boys” in his earpiece
Lots of video of Trump condemning neo-nazi’s and white supremacists, David Duke. Has Biden condemned Robert Byrd for his being a KKK recruiter? How many buildings still carry his name? How many statutes of him still stand?
Not a president for all American’s
Someone show the man how to do a Google or Safari search
Guy was asked to denounce white supremacy and somehow came up with an organization he has never heard of? Fuck realDonaldTrump VoteHimOut2020 voteblue
Hmmm, he's the one who wondered which one & came up, on his own, with Proud Boys. Maybe he was the one with an implanted microphone being fed the questions & answers & maybe that person was a double agent feeding him the proud boys call to arms? Yeah, that's the ticket! Yeah.
He is too incompetent to know that.
I hardly know the Proud Boys. I think they served coffee or something. LOL
“The Proud Boyz? They are a hip hop group, right?” “My wife Ivanka loves there music.” Donald Jaundice Trump
Jesus H. Christ. I can’t even.
He tells so many lies that he loses track!
He tells so many lies that he loses track!
You people have allowed your TDS to beclown your organization.
Trump is a White supremacist that incites violence and hatred towards minorities in this country then tries to gaslight the American people “I didn’t say that”. He’s a disgrace to our constitution & democracy. & the worst role model for our children.
His response was “sure”. NPR isn’t even pretending to not be Dem propaganda anymore.
Never heard of “Proud Boys” before this year, which is also an election year - somebody is playing games here.
12-0. Npr anti trump post debate articles
He asked who to tell to stand down like give me a name and Biden said proud boys. That's it. Stupid commies.
Bullshit.
The leader of the proud boys is Cuban.
😡💀😵😤⚡💥 Vote🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊 Get the Demon👹out if our house
You do not get to deem a group whatever you want to fit your agenda. Projection has been the left’s playbook for years. Disgusting.
He should ask his son. Jr knows.
Bull
In the debate he asked ok what should I call them? When answered with “proud boys” he then told proud boys to stand down. Smh.
Breaking: You are not smart.
Trump has explicitly condemned WhiteSupremacists, Nazis & the KKK many times. His question at the debate was, What more do I have to say? What name must I use to end this endless lying about me? ChrisWallace replied, Tell the ProudBoys to stand down, so Trump did that.
If the President of the United States does not know who the PB or Q are what the hell does he know
Ya right. Add that mouthful to the long long list.
Ba ha ha 🤪
LIAR
...proud boys? Don’t know’em
Liar liar enormous pants on fire
How many are sure they know who Antifa is?
The same misrepresentation as Charlottesville, say it often enough and many will see it as truthful.
Has he has he condemned them yet?
Drunk behind the wheel to police man.. I don’t know what a DUI is please explain it to me. Why is it wrong again?
😂
This ain’t the 1940s 1950s Jim Crowe, people of color can legally by guns, I see 18 year old black kids walking the streets with Long guns. So let “them” stand by. They are not the only people with guns
Unreal, lies, lies
This is wasted time for everyone involved. Everyone reading it, everyone hearing it, everyone reporting it.
I feel Trump was speaking to the Militias and such when he said stand down as they are the ones countering the riots Proud Boys are a small group who are not White Supremacists and he said he would label KKK terrorists days ago along with antifa
He doesn't associate with these creatures
Biden does. Someone who is more aware and in-tune with what's going on in US. This is who should be our leader
Wait a minute, isn’t he the “chief law enforcement officer of the country?”
The name of this group was fed to him at the debate. It doesn’t surprise me that he knows little or nothing of them. They are hardly newsmakers like violent Antifa.
Just how stupid does he think we are
Liar used their slogan
😂
His lips are moving, he’s lying
🤮
Lies. Denial. Distractions. Trump doing his misspoke thing and backtracking again.
Donnie claims he knows nothing about the Proud Boys (I think this is just one more Donnie lie)...but let's pretend, if he doesn't know about one of the most violent, disruptive, right wing, white supremacy groups in our country he should be FIRED for NEGLIGENT STUPIDITY.
How refershing to know these attacks have no bearing on voters. Trump will win because it's too obviois now.
Just like 45* didn’t know who David Duke was, and didn’t have any deals with Russia. LiarInChief Biden2020 VoteBlueDownBallotToo
It’s time to defund NPR. You claim to be unbiased but you lie. I guess low information voters depend on you.
GaslighterInChief
is full of Communist! It’s no coincidence the proud boys showed up a few days before the debate. The uniforms are paid for by George Soros and the left scum. They’re not proud boys they’re ANTIFA through and through. It’s your show!
I am truly disgusted as a black female that the leader of the free country would make such a comment. When he brags to the media he does so much for black people. Really?!? By having the white supremacist stand by. We are an embarrassment!
Pretty much consistent with all his communication about anything. He was talking to anyone with a gun willing to do what he can’t legally do.
You don't know who the Proud Boys are either... so.
wink wink nudge nudge
The Proud Boys are not a white supremicist group. FakeNewsMedia EnemyOfThePeople
Trump never knew, or doesn't remember, anybody who turns out to be inconvenient.
Every single day he demonstrates dereliction of duty. How can the President* of the United States not be familiar with one of the most existential domestic terrorist threats in America?
Whenever he opens his mouth just pure vomit comes out. Why does the news even cover him?
Bull Fucking Shit.
Typical gaslighting response.
Is it just me or does trump not know a lot of things?! What an idiot!
Asking Trump about random “white supremacist groups” when antifa/BLM are burning down the country is like asking someone in the middle of a tornado, “Aren’t floods terrible?!” Yes, they are, but that’s not the biggest problem we’re facing right now.
Always with the bait and switch. Talks out of both sides of his mouth. We deserve better.
Bullshit
Bullshit!
A stable genius, he is not.
White Supremacist? 🤷♀️🤷♀️🤷♀️
Oh yes he does.
Like David Duke...
The President should not support them but let's call them what they really are and they are extremists.
Okay everything actually says that this group while neo fascist is not white supremacists. They call themselves Western Chauvinists. They are not peaceful and they are mostly white but their message is not about race. Read up on them.
🙄🙄🙄
Far Right Radical Trump, the Five Time Draft Dodger realDonaldTrump the Leader of “Proud Boys,” and White Supremacy has Now lost all independent voters and all minority voters. Many moderate Republicans I’ve spoken to have said their supporting JoeBiden .
Really, cause he is close to their creator/leader.
flip flop flip flop
Joe Biden refuses to condemn Antifa and Left wing activists............ the ones that are actually burning down the Country.
Cancel further debates, no value to American citizens, not worth it with a total disrupting asshole like Trump! Cancel further debates!
He always says that.
President Trump has already denounced racism several times MSM imbeciles:
in case you missed this
Calling bullcrap on this
You that’s a lie if he denies not knowing about the Proud Boys. It’s been brought up several times to him.
Why think he meant anything other than what he said? If he meant to clarify his statement, he would have denounced white supremacy clearly today. Obviously- he won’t.
Tuffguysmom Trump sure doesn't seem to know much. Perhaps he should spend less time watching Fox News and golfing.
Probably just another disgruntled former WH employee, who was escorted off the premises. 🤣🤣🤣
We have heard this line before
We can’t have a president who isn’t aware of a group identified by the FBI as domestic terrorists. Trump is too stupid to be president. Vote BidenHarrisToSaveAmerica
I’m gonna need some more profanity to express myself
If he knows who they are (which, of course he does) then he is lying. If he doesn’t know who they are, then he must not be reading his briefs about domestic terrorism, which is also a problem
They’re fascists, and fascists always scapegoat an opposition, whether that’s the left or later something more racist. The Nazis waited years after they had stolen power, before playing the race card. Before that, they also labeled everyone on the left as communists!
I can fix your headline...Trimp lies and says he does not know who the Proud Boys are. npr. Are you kidding me? He answered and answered I a militaristic way. Why would he answer that way unless he knew.
Like every disgraced campaign or White House advisor he’s ever fired?
That’s even worse. Does he not even bother to listen to his security advisers. Trump is an idiot.
Too late! You can't un-blow that dog whistle trump.
Biden shouted Proud Boys That is how Proud Boys got thrown in the mix came from
proud boys, like tRumps many ex’s, dumped the next morning for no reason! Maybe they can ‘Stormy Daniels’ him and get paid for being fuked in front of the world.
They don’t let women in and they like to drink and fight. Plenty to criticize but they don’t give a shit about race. Do your research lazy “journalists”.
SenateGOP Trump knows who the Proud Boys are - liar
Gee a human moment.
More white supremacists
“White supremacists” 🙄
trump only knows imaginary people
Trump said 'I want Peace'.
Proud Boys are not racist or White Supremest! They are of all races! You need to be honest and stop the leftist lies!
It’s because THE LYING SACK OF SHIT MEDIA lyingsackofshitmedia has labeled the proud boys a white supremacy group! Don’t let the lyingsackofshitmedia fool you! Enough with the racism! Humans are so much better than this horrific programming taking place. It’s meant to divide us
Trump's eyes must be hurting from so much wink, winking.
If he didn't know who they were, then why did he mention them by name during the debate Duh. 🙄
Liar!
In pre-Trump days, it would have been a huge headline that the President is so ill-informed and has such a poor handle on domestic terrorism.
He’s the one who mentioned the Proud Boys...
Because lies.
Liar
Um, NPR, it’s YOU who doesn’t know who the Proud Boys are. You think they’re White Supremacists. You’re 100% wrong.
That’s just straight up funny! LOL
Can't wait til he's never heard of Donnie Jr. Or Ivanka. Or Kushner. Or Miller. Or Barr.
It was clear that the questions asked were not important to Trump, he just wanted to get his talking points out.
'There is no mafia'
i don’t get it, NPR spends so much time talking about the Proud Boys and what danger they *might* commit but completely ignores the *actual* violence carried out by ANTIFA & BLM. Proud boys have *NOT* publicly threatened to “Burn it all down”
I would rather walk through a large group of 'Proud Boys' then any street in Chicago at night. Sucks to be a white and American!
Just like he doesn’t know every member of his administration who is in jail, indicted, out on bail or copped a plea.
If he doesn't know who they are, he needs to resign. It's the president's job to know this shit and know it well. But, of course he knows who they are, they worship him. No way is he giving a full throated condemnation of bigots because he IS one. It's why they love him.
Accordion arms, mouth moving, LYING
Weren’t they the coffee boys?
Typical of him just like he distanced himself after his cronies were convicted, pleaded guilty or endicted .
If he had one iota of empathy or concern he would be talking to his FBI director ASAP. He won't, and of course he knows who the proud boys are
So he has no idea who the group is that was just named a terrorist group, but just happened to randomly use their name in a sentence!?!
haha
He knows the Proud Boys, he just cannot bring himself to denounce anyone who likes him. It's part of his disease 🤷
Selective amnesia?
Liar. He said their name last night unprompted.
Been really paying attention to those intelligence briefings, huh, realDonaldTrump?
The lack of context by npr here is awful journalism ... Trump just wants npr et al. to broadcast a better talking point ... pee boys got the msg and still has the msg
Remember this when we find out later he funded them as a tax write off. 70K for spittin chicklets
Antifa, BLM and the Dems have been rioting, looting and destroying cities all summer. So of course the leftist media wants to deflect and make an issue of this obscure group
Like a 3rd grader..... just keep denying and eventually it makes it true
Yet he claims to be a specialist about antifa.
He knows exactly who they are.
alternate headline: 'President displays shocking memory lapse less than 24 hours after...'
The leader of the Proud Boys is Afro-Cuban, but they’re a WSG.
😂🤣😂🤣😂
Ok. Are we supposed to believe that? 4 years of this now. Stop resetting the narrative to 'is he racist?' We're so far beyond that.
“I don’t know Beau”.
This guy. He’d lie about knowing his own family. He’s using fear to scare people into voting for him. If it doesn’t work, he wants that same fear to his advantage. Weak, impotent, power hungry and out of control. vote DontBeScared DemocracyOverFascism
He has dementia. It's probably true.
'...but what’s confusing you Is just the nature of my game, ooh yeah. Just as every cop is a criminal And all the sinners saints As heads is tails just call me {Trump}Lucifer I’m in need of some restraint.' Lyrics from Sympathy for the Devil by Rolling Stones
Let's hope he doesn't forget what that red button is for
DementiaDon
At least he didn’t say he was being sarcastic.
rdeane13
Haha, more lies! The only truthful this guy has said is that he doesn’t want to pay taxes ...
If one pretends to believe him then they are admitting he is utterly incompetent. For how could a competent President not know the name of the violent racist hate group behind the infamous Unite the Right rally?
Literally he said proud boys because Biden and Wallace named them. This is not a stretch at all
What happened to you NPR?
The Proud Boys are on the FBI’s terrorist watch list? President Trump will soon have BLOOD on his hands for encouraging Proud Boys to intimidate AMERICANS as they try to VOTE! 🩸 President Trump is the most powerful man in the world leading a known terrorist organization!
As well as Biden did not condemn antifa and riots
Liar
He would support anyone that “likes” him. Doesn’t matter if it’s a Nazi group or Satan himself for that matter. Can America do better? I guess we’ll find out in a month. After reading a lot of comments I’m not sure America deserves better.
npr
Sedition....incitement of resistance to or insurrection against lawful authority
Plot twist, the proud boys get angry and....
I didnt know who they were until after the debate last night.
Weren't they invited to the WH? Someone quick remind me.
Lol
Spanky doesn't know a lot of people...
Where do you people get your journalistic degrees from? How can they be a white supremacist group when their leader is a black dude and they allow blacks and hispanics in? I’d really love to hear how this makes the tiniest bit of logic and sense to you?
JoJorgenson2020
RACIST LIAR
As President you should know who the Proud Boys are...jeez Louise. Lead already!
Who the proud boys are (and he knows it):
Briefings?
Liar
Trump. Senile old man. Mindlessly bumbling about friends he now wants to forget.
He knows who tf they are.
This you?
If he doesn’t know a group deemed a domestic terrorist group,he is admitting he is not protecting us from “enemies foreign and domestic”
He doesn't know much, does he? realDonaldTrump
OK! He sure spit that name out of his mouth and their imaginary enemy fairly quickly. Must be either the Adderall or cocaine. (As a side note, imagine how much Adderall he has to take. Like horse dosage).
Did he forget since last night? That is some rapid mental decline. Let’s see the media blare that 24/7 like the ludicrous earpiece BS.
Is Trump also full of $hit?
Tell him to ask Stephen Miller. He founded it!
Typical response from him. He doesn't know anyone.
More publicly funded race bait by the left
Proud Boys aren’t white supremacist. They’re just boys full of pride.
realDonaldTrump WhiteHouse PressSec Trump came out of the closet last night -- he is the President of the Proud Boys and white supremacists/white nationalists -- he condemns antifa, which is a philosophy and not a group -- anti fa (fascist) -- that means Trump is pro-fascist
The POTUS is very confused and/or a white supremacy supporter.
That’s because Biden said it first. You can clearly go back and watch lol.
Lol
Proves his senility. So there you have it folks. The man is SENILE!.
Dude, wtf is wrong with journalism these days? The Proud Boys are NOT a “white supremacist” organization. They are led by a Cuban-American and explicitly state that they are anti-racist on their website. RIP journalistic integrity.
Alzheimer’s.
