Is Mitt Romney that confused?
The former Massachusetts governor seems to have been drinking the liberal media kool-aid, defending the far-left antifa against President Trump who doubled down on his condemnation of all groups involved in violence that erupted at a Charlottesville, Va. rally over the weekend.
No, not the same. One side is racist, bigoted, Nazi. The other opposes racism and bigotry. Morally different universes.

Antifa opposes racism and bigotry?
Mitt, by claiming Antifa & the Alt Left are moral, you are excusing their violence and unAmerican behavior. BOTH SIDES should be condemned: pic.twitter.com/cgTpqc9UIz

White supremacists clashed with violent radical leftists in Virginia, leaving injuries and even death in the wake of their agendas. President Trump has sent liberals into meltdowns over his refusal to call out the so-called alt-right as the culprits behind the violence that cost the lives of three people, including a counter-protester who was killed when a car drove into the crowd.
Trump has condemned the actions of those on both sides of the debate, but his critics – and Trump bashers like Romney – are apparently ready to defend the violent leftists to suit their crusade against the president. Mainstream media has all but made heroes of the far left groups with CNN anchors even defending antifa agitators on the air.
Ann Coulter took to Twitter to unload on the former 2012 GOP presidential nominee.
The side that merely “opposes racism & bigotry” violently attacked nice GOP rally attendees, wives & kids in Chicago, San Jose, DC, etc https://t.co/eJmjVHAw3Y

The side that merely “opposes racism & bigotry” also led directly to the murder of 10 cops last year in Dallas, Baton Rouge & NYC. https://t.co/eJmjVHAw3Y

The side that “opposes racism & bigotry” shut down speeches by me, Heather MacDonald, @charlesmurray, Milo, violently, with masks & weapons. https://t.co/eJmjVHAw3Y

And Coulter was not alone.
Mitt Romney loves these guys! https://t.co/dKF234fqsc

Literally NO ONE is approving of white supremacists. But it’s obvious that the violence was on BOTH SIDES. Are you blind or ignorant, Mitt?

This kind of loser attitude is what handed Barack Obama the 2012 election on a silver platter. Take some testosterone Mitt!

Are you blind? Antifa are anarchists, they shut down (violently) anyone they disagree with.

They are the New Age KKK! Dems created the KKK and now Antifa. @MittRomney and Hillary have a lot in common, both losers.
