Defends Charlottesville marchers at Trump Tower: "Very fine people on both sides"

In a combative press conference at Trump Tower, Trump doubled down on his "many sides" rhetoric. He argued that there was "blame on both sides" and famously stated, "You had some very bad people in that group, but you also had people that were very fine people, on both sides," referring to the white supremacist rally.
