In other words, Trump confirmed everything Biden had accused him of — fomenting violence, egging on white supremacists, seeking advantage by stoking White fear and encouraging police abuse. Cast Blacks as agitators and radicals and defend White violence.

None, at least no current officeholders, has condemned Trump’s incendiary language or repudiated Trump’s defense of White violence. Will they condemn Trump or the violence?
