terry mcauliffe couldn't even bring himself to say no, antifa is bad.poses the bias in the media because jesse is absolutely right. where is the media going to democrats and asking for statements, putting them on record. i do support or not? it exposes their bias because they were more than happy to use a hate group which every republican under the sun denounced and try to malign the republican party in the president of the united states. shame on democrats and shame on the media. >> kimberly: there's also republicans and people in congress that have not been ousted either and they should. they didn't want to be tied to income of the don't want say anything about it. >> juan: interesting piece in "the washington post," the fact that you had one group that's associated with the but to have another group that's associated with the communists and both historically have killed people. >> greg: it's a great point, the statement that nancy pelosi made is a complete no-brainer which is what she was good at it printed i do have to congratulate her, i'm glad she

we've seen the governor of virginia, democrat terry mcauliffe, call for a state of emergency, so a lage before comment from the president. but with this tweet he signals a message, a tone that he would like to have the public contemplate at this point. it follows house speaker paul ryan who put out a statement earlier via twitter where he talked about these views are not american and should not be what we stand for. the first lady's office we noticed earlier, she had put on her twitter feed a statement as well from the first lady of the united states. and this is an important moment for a president to set a tone, send a message, try to reinforce the values that they stand for. for president trump, this gets complicated in certain ways because some of the elements that have participated in the clashes we've seen today have been people broadly speaking who have been supporters of his rise in politics and that sort of thing, so it's a kind of situation where it is even rhetorically volatile for him to be engaged. we know that the president spoke to the french president today, emmanuel mac
