President Donald Trump he gave the note in his Twitter, sowing new doubts about its drift supremacist. Trump promoted from the social network a video in which one of his followers shouts the slogan “white power”As they face protesters. In his comment to those images, the president said that those followers, a resident of The Villages, a community of retirees in Florida, were “great people.”
As soon as it spread, the scandal emerged, due to the racist demonstration of the country’s top leader in a moment of agitation for the mistreatment of blacks in the United States. In an unusual concession, despite repeated occasions when he makes xenophobic or racist comments, the retuit was erased.
The White House released a statement: “President Trump is a huge fan of The Village. He did not hear that statement that is made in the video. What he saw was the tremendous enthusiasm of many of his followers. ” Everything, the tweet and the note, were seen as nonsense. “Thanks to the wonderful people at The Villages. The left-wing radicals, Democrats who do nothing, will fall in the fall, “he tweeted along with the video.
Their blindness is clear. Trumpistas, in golf carts, face other residents of The Villages who wear signs that describe Trump as fanatic and racist. Tim Scott, the only black senator in the Republican ranks, asked the president to remove him. “I should never have tweeted it, it’s indefensible,” he said.
Trump has been accused of racism by lawmakers for his Twitter messages in the past. Among other controversies, he has tweeted attacks on black lawmakers and has told four deputies of color that they should “come back and help fix the completely broken and crime-infested places they came from.”
