We give credit to people who repent and apologize.
Ellison has never apologized for supporting Farrakhan, you dems have excused Antifa and BLM for their violence every single time. Never any condemnation. This is why you are out of touch with America and the dems will continue to lose elections.
Ellison wrote a piece for the washington post saying that he made a mistake not calling Farrakhan out on his anti-semitism. It wasn't really an absolute apology, but saying that as a young man he cared only about black people. The nation of islam was furious and wrote an editorial saying that Ellison had repudiated farrakhan.
So there is that. Not really true that Ellison has not repented.
re antifa and blm "every single time"?? that's absurd. you are making some kind of massive generalization.
But you are basically right - that the Dem party does not criticize BLM. It's a weird thing to say since BLM is not a single voice...there are violent BLM people and peaceful BLM members. No one voice. So hard for the Dems to generalize about blm.
