President Trump’s reply to the Chris Wallace/Joe Biden dynamic duo’s “guess the number I’m thinking of and then denounce it” challenge about “white supremacist” groups has been the number one social media whipping horse for the left/media all day.
The line is that Trump “refuses” to “denounce” the white supremacy that he’s previously denounced many, many, many times, because when Walliden asked him last night if he would denounce it, and he said yes, they then said “Proud Boys” and he cryptically said “Stand back and stand by.”
It’s a whole thing. And so they asked Tim Scott about it of course because he is black and that’s how the left thinks. Watch.
“I think he misspoke in response to Chris Wallace’s comment. He was asking Chris what he wanted to say. I think he misspoke. I think he should correct it. If he doesn’t correct it, I guess he didn’t misspeak.”
I don’t know y’all I thought that was a fine political answer. He didn’t bash, he didn’t make it about himself, he didn’t speak FOR Trump. Pretty careful for an on-the-spot question unrelated to what they were there for.
But on social media the reaction was totally not that.
