    I didn’t say presidents always condemn good things either. Most things, good and bad, don’t make it to the national level in the first place. I’m not saying Biden wouldn’t condemn a racist rally. I’m saying presidents as a political position, not any individual, rarely condemn anything that is regressive or reactionary. To my knowledge, not even Obama condemned the racist bullshit directed at him after winning. People were hanging racist effigies from trees.
