But if they would only sign this it would make my life so much better. Forget about tax reform, illegal immigration, national security and healthcare condemning retards who dress up like idiots is what will really matter.

Seems to me the Repubs got work to do and the Dems are not holding them back since they control everything.

I think they are just as hard at work now as they were the past 8 years.

Look a little bit deeper and you my find something that opposes your desired outcome.

"[The president] looks forward to [signing it] as soon as he receives it," said White House press secretary Sarah Sanders Wednesday."

I know reality can be scary, but would you rather not save your fauxrage for something that can not be disproved with just a second of research... ... http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/congress-approves-measure-condemning-charlottesville-violence-white-nationalists/story?id=49808312

Now if the 10 days allowed passes and he vetos the resolution, then WE have something to get twisted about.

Now, now SGM. You don't want to impinge on their outrage. They may blow a sneaker having to stop so quickly from jumping to conclusions.

Beat me to the punch... I'm tired of the mentality that is someone doesn't move on another's project fast enough, it's immediately classified as a black and white he/she supports or does not support something. Trump already came out and denounced the actions of the organization such as the KKK. The statements quoted of him about people on both sides doing wrong is not his way of supporting their actions. His point that their are good people on both sides is an accurate one. I do not support the actions or the existence of the KKK and similar groups, but I am against erasing our history. It is possible to have both positions independent from each other. The same can be said of those who believe Gen Lee is representative of racism. It is possible to have that opinion without partaking in or supporting the actions of those committing violent acts to make their point. Furthermore, it is also acceptable to criticize the city council in the first place for deciding themselves, without going to the voters first, to pull down the monument.

All of this is designed, in my opinion, to enable and spur on the violence so that politicians can point to the extremists on both sides and accuse them of being representative of the left or right views people in this country have. It's complete BS.

Looks like Think Progress is jumping the gun a bit here... if Trump hasn't scheduled a signing of the bill within a few days of receiving it, then it's time to start applying political pressure.
