It's good to see that there actually are republican politicians calling out his BS and being reasonable people

Arnold needs to be careful. The views he's stating here sound a lot like antifascism... which was just designated as terrorism in the US.

It’s a interesting situation. He wants to make Antifa a terrorist organization. The problem is that antifa is not a Organization, there a many different groups that act under the ideology of Anti-fascism. Not all are like those extremists it is aimed against. So the titulation as a terrorist organization wouldn’t really work since there is not really a organization. And declaring a whole ideology a “terrorist organization” is problematic at best. Under this logic Anti-fascism would constitute as such but the thing they are against, fascism, would not. And a quick reminder. This ideology was responsible for the murder of millions of people just 80 years ago.
