If you're an American adult male, you are already enlisted in the unorganized militia. Get your weapon, get physically fit, and get ready for battle as best as you can.
The president CAN and WILL call upon us in a time of war if need be.
Yeah, in a, "I can't fucking tell the Proud Boys what to do" kind of way. He definitely was. He was also being somewhat cynical about the question since Chris Wallace pushed him after he disavowed and he asked for a certain group and Proud Boys was the example. Trump could have definitely been thinking, "That's your example!? Yeah sure, definitely Proud Boys stand down. *gimme a break*"
But your analysis seems well thought and layed out too ...
The President said "Stand down and stand by", which (I believe) was him repeated what he thought Wallace said earlier when the line of questioning started.
He asked if he condemned them and the president said sure. Wallace continued (and also conflated white supremacists by also saying militas) and said something to the effect of "tell them to stand down"; badgering ensued; and, then the President said, "Sure. Who? What's the name? Proud Boys stand down and stand by".
This was a bullshit line of questioning pretty close along the lines of "Will you agree that beating your wife is wrong?" Not exact, but it was a media narrative creator ("Trump finally denounces white supremacists, only when pressed by an austere moderator"). In a way, they got what they wanted because the President was (effectively) back-handing the question because he know it was bullshit.
Incidentally, today, he clarified he didn't even know who the Proud Boys were and if they were/weren't racist.
The only thing Lindsay's going to die of is a massive coronary.
Or diabeetus
Where’s Wilford Brimley pretending to ride a horse when we need him?
Liberty Medical needs a new spokesperson since the Diabeetus got old Wilford.
Or the China flu.
Smart money is on AIDS.
“Standing by” means not right now but be ready in the future
It's also the exact terminology Chris Wallace asked him to use.
Wallace asked Trump to tell the 'white supremacists' to stand by?
Not that I disagree with what Trump said. Proud Boys will defend civilization, not burn it down. They should be standing by.
Oy vey. They're schvitzing!
where do I enlist

you dont need to. Just be ready if he needs us.
I’m standing by
And the second picture probably is a picture of flower, clouds, pets, etc,
I took his answer sarcastically, but also noted it was interesting language to use.

he wasnt being sarcastic but if ever asked he could say that he was. stable genius.
"We are going to die..." - Your terms are acceptable.
From nacho cheese arteries most likely
If they keep this up...who knows
Commies SHOULD be scared of patriots.
Anyone who wants to infringe on anyone else's God given rights should stay up all night, wondering if it is their last night on earth.
There's nothing evil about white nationalism. I think they mean supremacy? They're not the same and have very different philosophies
She/it is gonna die....from eating too many pizzas in one sitting.
You're going to die of heart disease and diabeetus.

He's been President for four years. If he wanted you dead why wait until the end of his term?
These people don't think beyond the next keystroke.
Those were Wallice’s words though, Trump asked him what does he want Trump to say and repeated it.
Lindsay, the crippled jew.
What are those little flags next to their name?
