Trump wants to designate both the KKK and Antifa as terrorist groups, but a few things with that:
1 - I didn't make this cartoon, and it has some misspellings, but it does a decent job of illustrating how Antifa is NOT a hate group or terrorists.

2 - Antifa technically isn't even a group. It's not an organization, and it's not terrorists.
As the name indicates, they're ANTI-FASCISTS.
Trumpism, like sending armed groups to violently suppress peaceful protesters, is fascism. Fascism is anti-American and must be opposed.

3 - The KKK IS a terrorist organization, and they pretty much always have been, but they're not the only white supremacist organization, and others may even be more fittingly described as terrorists.
4 - There is nothing comparable philosophically between the KKK and Antifa.

Another thing for those who still want to tie the KKK to Democrats, stop being such a fucking ignorant idiot, and learn real history, rather than reciting talking points.
