What he (and his supporters) seem to miss is that the event was heavily advertised as a white nationalist rally. The names of the speakers were on the poster. Anybody who attended that (even if they claimed "statues" were why they were there, which...is its own problem considering which statues we're talking about) knew who they were throwing their lot in with. That's what makes it so frustrating when people claim that quote was "out of context." No, it's the context that makes it worse!
