Adding to his shit week, I see he lost on DACA in the Supreme Court too.

Its not easy being a dehumanizer of immigrants and minorities. ;D

Good-they should be given legal status

(Except those with serious criminal records, but I don't think they're part of it anyway)

"I did something good: I made Juneteenth very famous," Mr. Trump said, referring to news coverage of the rally date. "It's actually an important event, an important time. But nobody had ever heard of it."

Mr. Trump said he polled many people around him, none of whom had heard of Juneteenth. Mr. Trump paused the interview to ask an aide if she had heard of Juneteenth, and she pointed out that the White House had issued a statement last year commemorating the day. Mr. Trump's White House has put out statements on Juneteenth during each of his first three years.

"Oh really? We put out a statement? The Trump White House put out a statement?" Mr. Trump said. "OK, OK. Good."

Because I'm sure it's a bunch of complete and utter nonsense

Which part is nonsense?

Trump campaign ran it?

Facebook took it down?

It was not a symbol used in the concentration camps?

Or Trump's campaign team's baseless claim that it was a symbol used by "Antifa"?

I have lived here for 30 years and I never heard of Juneteenth until about a week ago.

Tbf whitey would have a special interest in ww2 myself and triangles did identify the different camps.
No issue with your politics as it's always each time their own
The red triangle was for political prisoners, anarchists, greets of Jews, trade unionists , socialists etc

Mat Gaetz is a really, really strange guy.

Coulter and her band of merry fascists kicking off on twitter over the DACA ruling.

The Supreme Court is loaded with Conservatives now do the headers not realise that if this Supreme Court rules against Trump it's for the right reasons??

A very casual glance at the JPG  would indicate to most people (4 years or older ) that the vast majority of concentration camp inmates were branded with an inverted  red triangle.

You should probably get out more, or at least get out of your white supremacist bubble.

Good one


Now it's coming out that they pulled it off the Antifa website

Why would "AntiFascists" be using a "fascist" emblem

ADL also maintains a list of hate symbols and red triangle isn't one

This is the "connect the dots " bullshit that it only helping Trump
