The confrontation happened after President Trump gave a speech to thousands at the March For Trump rally, which has brought together people from all over the country.
The scenes are no different from months of unruly protests by Black Lives Matter agitators, which the media described as “peaceful,” so presumably they’ll have no issue whatsoever with this.
In reality, the media has been hyping the threat of right-wing groups attending the march for weeks and will likely hyperventilate over the scenes, despite having supported similar behavior by BLM and Antifa activists for months.
