This lie has been debunked even by the Left. But this shows you that she has zero control over her campaign. Lord Obama pressed the lie all over and thinks it still has traction. Sometimes it is a good thing that Leftists like Obama live in their own little bubble worlds.
Even though Joe Biden has been largely shuffled into the political background, the Democratic machine shows no signs of easing up on their relentless campaign against GOP nominee Donald J. Trump, especially regarding the infamous Charlottesville events. This week, Kamala Harris’ team reached deep into their well-worn playbook of deception, reigniting the debunked narrative that Trump once praised neo-Nazis as “very fine people” during the tragic events of August 2017.
In a new social media ad, viewers are bombarded with unsettling imagery of tiki torches and street violence in Charlottesville, paired with a highly edited clip of Trump’s remarks that strips away crucial context. The lie that Trump sympathized with white supremacists has been discredited time and again, even by sources typically unfriendly to Trump. Yet, here we are, seven years later, with the same baseless accusation being served up to the public as gospel truth.
The reason why they are going after Kennedy so hard is that it spoils their one narrative. “we’re not Trump”
We do have another choice 🇺🇸.

Harris’ team didn’t stop there—they went further, insinuating that Trump harbors deep-seated anti-Semitic views. This is a laughable accusation when considering the fact that anti-Semitism has been far more prevalent within segments of her own political base, with alarming reports of Jewish people being harassed and threatened on college campuses and in public spaces.
For a fleeting moment, it seemed like Harris might rise above the usual mudslinging and avoid the tired comparisons between Trump and the worst villains in history. But that hope was quickly dashed by this latest ad, which was met with immediate backlash online. Critics were quick to point out the manipulative editing and the blatant lies being peddled for political gain.

Not to be outdone, Biden himself resurrected this tired hoax in a recent CBS News interview. He tearfully recounted how he spoke with the mother of the young woman killed in Charlottesville, claiming that Trump’s comments about “very fine people on both sides” were the catalyst for his decision to run for president. This emotional retelling is nothing more than a fabricated tale designed to stir up animosity and fear, pushing the false narrative that Trump’s words somehow justified the actions of extremists.
The question now looms: Is this rhetoric simply an attempt to rile up the base, or is there something darker at play, perhaps even a subtle nudge towards more extreme actions against Trump? The implications are as unsettling as the tactics themselves.
