When armed  White Supremacists and Neo Nazi hate groups descended on Charlottesville Trump didn’t immediately  call them out as bigots and racists. He was essentially silent because these people are part of his base.  Time went by and at the prodding of his advisors he gave a half hearted condemnation from a teleprompter. Later,  when given the opportunity to speak his mind on the subject he  basically undercut his previous remarks by stating that there were “very fine people” among the racists. He didn’t call these hate mongers “sons of bitches” or call for their employers to “fire” them.
