America, he said, "used to be an example of freedom, equality, democracy. The reality is different now."
"To condemn both sides seems strange when one side are Nazis," he remarked.
"The US used to be the leader in fighting racism."
"We don't learn from the mistakes of history," he worried. "It's happening everywhere," he said. "But (leaders) not condemning it, that doesn't happen everywhere."
Those are just some of the comments people in the Netherlands had to say about the con artist's limp-wristed comments, almost an apology, for the terror attack in Charlottesville. Even worse remarks came from traditional allies of the U.S.
Germany's De Welt reported the "clarification," from the White House with a headline that dripped with sarcasm: "Naturally, the president also means the Neo-Nazis."
France's daily Le Monde described Trump's history of "complacency" before the extreme right, while Belgium's Le Soir speculated that Trump "cultivates ambiguity" to avoid angering his base.
Matthew Norman, of The Independent, had perhaps the most notable opinion regarding the con artists' non-statement:
As a direct of the spineless, yellow bellied administration which continues to make apologies for Russia's attacks on its neighbors, the seizing of its neighbors lands and propping up a dictator who gasses his own people, confidence in the United States has plummeted. According to a recent Pew poll, only 22% of the people surveyed in 37 countries have confidence in the U.S. The Dutch have even less. Only 17% have confidence in the con artist compared to 92% when Obama was in office.
If the con artist is trying to "make America great again", he sure is taking the long route.

As for the question of whether it's politics or ideology that motivates Trump's reticence, he saw little moral escape. "Which is more repulsive," he asked, "someone who genuinely admires Hitler, or someone who cynically courts that person for electoral advantage." The choice, he said, is too bleak to contemplate.
