The fucking US media is really anti Trump, his answers were for most parts logical and not inflammatory, but the US media made it out like he is some white supremacist supporting the KKK.

1) He said to all the media that he condemns all these sort of racist groups like the KKK. He has condemned them before and he will condemn them in the future. This apparently did not satisfy the media.

2) He said that not all the people in the rally were white supremacists. And he is right. Were there rascist groups there, yes there were. but the whole rally was against the removal of the statue of General Robert E Lee, the foremost Confederate General during the war. Many people who were not racist went to the rally to support opposition to the statue removal. Hell, if I were in Charlottesville at that time, I might have attended the rally against the statue removal. In my opinion, Robert E Lee was the best general in the Civil War. And he was an honourable one too. After his men failed at Picketts Charge at Gettysburg, and the survivors returned to their lines, he greeted them as they were coming in, wounded and defeated and said apologized to them all and said it was his fault. then he offered to resign. What kind of general does that? He was a loyal and patriotic american, it was just that he fought for the wrong side. I admire the man and his humbleness and tactical genius. He is as much a part of American History as Ulysses S Grant. His statue should not have been removed. The white supremacist movement took the statue rally as a rally for their course, but that is not the case. if the media had listened to what Trump said, instead of shouting at him, they would have seen that.

Other points that Trump did not make:

- Every stupid thing that stupid people do is blamed on him. If the POTUS has to condemn every moron who does a stupid act every day, he would have no time to run the country. The fact is that the driver who drove his car into the protesters and killed one of them was a nutjob racist who drove all the way from Ohio. The POTUS cannot condemn the actions of all these sort if nutjobs or he would not have time to shit. The fact is that the protesters the white driver killed and injured were white themselves. yes, that's right. They were not blacks, they were all whites. The white driver aimed his car at other white people. But the media calls him a racist. If he aims his car at blacks, of which I am sure there were many at the rally, then you can really say he was a racist. I think he was a nutjob more then anything.

Of course, non of this was dwelt on by the dishonest press.
