Nugent Has History of Violent Remarks
Rock musician, NRA board member, and far right wing extremist Ted Nugent sat down with Fox News Wednesday afternoon to defend President Donald Trump over his failed response to the Charlottesville white supremacist violence and murder.
“All lives matter. If you don’t agree with that, you’re a racist,” said Nugent, who has reportedly made threatening remarks about Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.
Nugent is playing a dangerous game of false equivalency, as the Fox News commentator noted.
President Trump’s response to Charlottesville has cratered the White House. He’s called Vice President Pence back early from an international trip and polling shows the majority of Americans say Trump did not properly handle the crisis.
Last year Nugent called for Clinton to be hanged for treason, and he promoted a video showing Hillary Clinton’s murder.
