This editorial must be taken in the context of the hate Trump rhetoric that has been going on so long now.  The questions asked in the editorial's opening lines are fake because nobody said such people are "fine."  It is true that some fine people object to the removal of historical statues.  This is what the President referred to.  Actually, I find the liberal comments hilariously hypocritical.  The willingness to condemn and dehumanize is the essential ingredient of an extremist be it a Nazi white supremacist or whatever.  Liberals are deep into that activity demonstrating that they are in fact equivalent to the objects of their hate.

If anybody wants to engender warmth and respect among all our people, the action must start at home.  The attacks on Trump are inconsistent with desired mutual respect.  Words and thoughts are put in his mouth.  Anyone who really cared would be asking him to explain his thoughts rather than projecting their ugly views on him.
