By now, you’ve watched the exchange from the debate on Tuesday were President Trump was asked to denounce white supremacists — AGAIN — with Joe Biden asking him to specifically call out The Proud Boys:
Chris Wallace asked President Trump during Tuesday's debate whether he was willing "to condemn white supremacists and militia groups."
"Proud Boys, stand back and stand by," he replied. "This is not a right-wing problem. This is left wing.”

With that said, some members of the group aren’t taking kindly to being called white supremacists:

We’re living in a “clown world”:
Only in America can a non-white guy denounce white supremacy and be called a white supremacist on twitter by a bunch of white people.
Clown world. https://t.co/x5pKNGT9Eu

You know, maybe this group isn’t the white supremacist organization Joe Biden would have us believe:

Where are the fact-checkers?
Joe Biden LITERALLY called this black man a white supremacist on national television.
Has ANY DC Media fact-checker corrected the record? https://t.co/7GxIi4mgvM

There will need to be a lot of corrections:
I didn’t see this coming, but admittedly, I know nothing about the organization and don’t know anyone in it either. https://t.co/JhhAVXCoJa

“. . .and the media just nods along”:
Democrats are running around calling these guys white supremacists and media just nods along.
The corruption is going to get people hurt. https://t.co/tN61qgfgUg

Not everything is “white supremacy,” libs:
If Media keeps labeling everyone a “white supremacist” just because they’re not liberals there will be a tipping point where people will start to push back. Violently.
This isn’t a threat. It’s human nature.

And, finally, “Do a better job, media”:
They may be extremists..
But they aren't white supremacists.Do a better job, media. https://t.co/jf91ExRYwS
