I think our past presidents would not have hesitated to denounce these views (the way many current politicians are) given these circumstances. And in many cases, they'd be doing so through gritted teeth, or outright lying. But Trump's inability to bring himself to condemn it is nothing but cowardice, and I don't think it will pay off as a political decision either, given the reaction from many conservatives.

George W. Bush was a monster. But he also understood that as president he had a responsibility to offer moral clarity in times of turmoil. Obama praised the police following the shooting in Dallas (and many other times besides).

After a conflict between Neo-Nazis who killed a woman, and those who oppose them, Trump has sided with neither.
