Ooookay....
I'm specifically referring to James Alex Fields' actions.
On one hand, I can understand a rational President condemning white supremacism, then saying "no one should use political violence," and saying "let's wait until all the facts are in about the car collision." I can even understand a moderate statement two days later, such as "the FBI is investigating as a possible act of terrorism."
Instead, we get a President who treats anti-racist protestors as moral equivalents to neo-Nazis and the KKK; who is surrounded by people that take a strong stand against white supremacy and racism; and childishly attacks an African-American CEO who dared to criticize his mealy-mouthed response.
Further, you're claiming that the President labeling Field's attack as "terrorism" would potentially poison the jury pool. So I ask again, when did that start?
As a point of comparison: The Boston Marathon was bombed on Monday April 12th, in mid-day. The next morning, even before the suspects were identified, Obama classified it as an "act of terrorism" and saying "We will find whoever harmed our citizens, and we will bring them to justice." Was this the wrong thing for him to do? Was Dzhokhar Tsarnaev completely incapable of getting a fair trial, because the President classified it as a terrorist attack so quickly?
