Just seven months into the Trump presidency and the liberal media have already reached the summit of Mt. Lunacy:

Journalists and major liberal news outlets have compared violent American flag-burning protesters to soldiers storming the beaches of Normandy — all while downplaying the leftists’ violence.

The protesters, known as antifa (short for anti-fascist), often advocate for communism and have been deemed a domestic terrorist movement by New Jersey. Persons associated with the movement have previously stabbed a police horse and beat people with bike locks.

The work to mainstream the violent leftists came as a response to President Trump saying that “both sides” were responsible for violence at a white nationalist rally over the weekend in Charlottesville, Va.

If there’s a dumber and more forced talking point circulating I have yet to see it:

I haven’t noticed the media clamoring to interview D-Day veterans to get their opinion of the comparison. Now why would that be?
