(297,935 posts)I thought it was a stunning, well targeted, statement against trump and white supremacy.
Beto had a brilliant statement to the reporter who asked the inane question, too!

(2,771 posts)Lets not sugarcoat it. This isnt meant as a criticism of Biden. I appreciate his statement. I just think white supremacy is stronger and more on target in this context.

(42,770 posts)White nationalism is a type of nationalism or pan-nationalism which espouses the belief that white people are a race and seeks to develop and maintain a white national identity. Its proponents identify with and are attached to the concept of a white nation. Wikipedia

(42,770 posts)White supremacy or white supremacism is the racist belief that white people are superior to people of other races and therefore should be dominant over them. White supremacy has roots in scientific racism, and it often relies on pseudoscientific arguments. Wikipedia

(49,455 posts)and a nod to white supremists and white nationalists.
Joe is scheduled for an interview on CNN later this evening w/Anderson Cooper. I expect the two of them will discuss in detail the earlier scheduled Trump statement (10 a.m. est.) about this weekend's horrible events.
I'm sure Trump will attempt to distance himself from the white extremists, but Joe will call him out on it.

(32,640 posts)will DO directly about White Supremacy.
They must call it by name, and not simply equate it with racism, and believe that the solution is to "encourage people to be good to each other."
It is a malevolent force in and of itself - a specific hatred that manifests itself in violence.

(15,512 posts)So much more than lip service is needed at this point. I do believe that Joe is the best suited to take up this task. If that's all he accomplished it would be worth the effort. This weekend was a horror.
Mahalo Cha!
