Right wingers have been pouncing on this. However, as usual, they are ignoring the context.

Full quote:

"That past that he (Trump) is promising to return us to was never as great as advertised, especially for marginalized Americans.”



People taking things out of context...hmmmmm

"And there's this big effort by Trump supporters to pretend the president didn't say what he said." - Jake Tapper

Do you take everything out of context?

Yes POTUS Trump said those words
Just as Jake Tapper said the words you quoted

Alas, you took both statements out of context

Ok then - Who were the fine people on the side of the nazis?

This is the same question Tapper seems to be asking. I don’t think I took his words out of context, but you clearly do.
