A good person, putting herself on the line for a most worthy cause, lost to the redneck mob that makes the most loyal sector of Trump's base -- there's no denying it, if the racists and supremacists were but a tiny part of his support then he'd have no trouble vehemently denouncing them and cutting them loose. But this fraud of a President needs them and he knows it. He's even put them at the heart of his team; characters as loathsome as Bannon and Miller would have no place in the office of any leader with even the slightest sense of decency.
So Trump equivocates and evades his responsibility, shrugs and goes back to his golf game. And he still has his anonymous fans in online comment threads -- how they reveal themselves in the excuses they make for those neo-Nazis, for all those stupid young goons (always the same faces, always the same type).
