Responds to Charlottesville white supremacist attack: "Violence on many sides"

After a neo-Nazi rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, turned deadly with a car attack killing counter-protester Heather Heyer, Trump refused to explicitly condemn white supremacists. Instead, he condemned hatred and violence "on many sides, on many sides," drawing a moral equivalence between the hate groups and those protesting them.

"We condemn in the strongest possible terms this egregious display of hatred, bigotry and violence on many sides, on many sides." — Statement from Bedminster, NJ
