NOTE: When writing about God and Jesus, The Daily Jot means YHVH as God and Yeshua Ha Mashiach as Jesus--the actual original names and the true nature and character of them.

The news media is having a melt down over President Donald Trump saying that there were at least two sides to blame in the Charlottesville, Va., riots over the past weekend. The media and the left jumped to the conclusion that the President is a racist because he isn't putting the full blame on the white supremacists. The media and the left is choosing to ignore that the riot didn't become a riot until Antifa communists and anarchists confronted the white supremacists. They see no moral equivalency between racism and anybody standing against the racists. In the minds of the left, it doesn't matter who confronted the white supremacists, and whoever says there were two sides to the violence, is a bigot and a racist.
To these reporters and liberals there can be no defense of the KKK, Neo-Nazis, etc., because they are race hate groups. It doesn't matter to the left if these groups were hypothetically sitting peacefully in a park and were provoked and attacked by the Democratic Party, it is the racist groups' fault because they are racist and racism cannot be defended. That's how they are looking at it. Certainly, there are likely racists and bigots among the so-called anti-fascist group Antifa, but they are self-proclaimed communists and anarchists not known for their racism. Hence, the President saying "both sides" are at fault is true, but to the left it means he's a racist because he is defending the white supremacists.
Trump's words were just the opening that the left needed to label him a racist once and for all and stain his presidency. They took to the airwaves to cement the image into every American's mindset. According to MRC, the big three networks spent 77.6 percent of their primetime news coverage expressing outrage over Trump "defending" white supremacists. CBS News spent its entire evening news on Trump's remarks. The networks missed stories about North Korea backing down on its nuclear threat, and how the previous "president" was warned about Russian interference in the election, but did nothing about it. NBC and ABC refused to carry Trump's strong condemnation of the murderer in the riot.
The truth is that club-yielding members of Antifa played a significant role in the violence of the Charlottesville riots. Trump, however, is now labeled a racist by the left because in their eyes there is no moral equivalency between racists and people standing up against them. Isaiah 59:13-14 may aptly describe the entirety of this situation, " In transgressing and lying against the LORD, and departing away from our God, speaking oppression and revolt, conceiving and uttering from the heart words of falsehood. And justice is turned back, and righteousness stands afar off: for truth is fallen in the street, and equity cannot enter." Racism, communism, fascism is all of the devil and have no moral equivalency.
Have a Blessed and Powerful Day!
