Trump doubles down on initial Charlottesville response, saying ‘there is blame on both sides’ for violence

By Washington Post Staff August 15 at 4:31 PM
President Trump on Tuesday said that counterprotesters at a white supremacist rally in Charlottesville over the weekend acted violently and should share the blame for the mayhem that left a woman dead and many others injured. The president also defended those protesting the removal of a Robert E. Lee statue.

In a testy exchange with reporters at Trump Tower, the president called the events on Saturday a "horrible thing to watch," but he emphasized that both sides of the clashes contributed to the violence.
This is a developing story. It will be updated.
