The anti-white supremacist and anti-Nazi “alt-left” are occupying the former plantation home of Robert E. Lee and LGBTQ Nation has an incredible photo of hundreds of them in unmoving formation.

President Trump blamed what he called the alt-left yesterday while defending neo-Nazis and the so-called alt-right.

What about the fact that they came charging with clubs in their hands, swinging clubs?  Do they have any problem?  I think they do… You had a group on one side that was bad, and you had a group on the other side that was also very violent.  And nobody wants to say that, but I’ll say it right now.  You had a group — you had a group on the other side that came charging in, without a permit, and they were very, very violent.

Those American patriots were, indeed, violent. In fact, they kicked the shit out of the Confederacy and the Third Reich. And, yes, they had a “permit” – they had a declaration of war issued by Congress. Now, they “occupy” a former Confederate General’s plantation grounds so the nation can never forget their sacrifice. We call it Arlington National Cemetery now.

Hat tip to Wilson Allen on Facebook for the idea for this post.
