Two days after a Charlottesville attack left 1 dead and 19 injured, President Trump is finally speaking out against the group of people that started the violent rally.
Speaking to a room of reporters, Trump told, “Racism is evil — and those who cause violence in its name are criminals and thugs, including KKK, neo-Nazis, white supremacists, and other hate groups are repugnant to everything we hold dear as Americans. Those who spread violence in the name of bigotry strike at the very core of America.”
Prior to his speeech, Trump reportedly met with FBI Director Christopher Wray and Attorney General Jeff Sessions to discuss how the Department of Justice should respond.
“To anyone who acted criminally in this weekend’s racist violence, you will be held fully accountable. Justice will be delivered.”
