See below for some responses from Virginia Democratic candidates and elected officials, as well as VP Joe Biden, to Trump retweeting a video with a #MAGA individual shouting “White Power!” I’ll add more reactions as I see them. As for Republicans, presumably most of them won’t say a word, because that’s who they are and how they behave.
Today the President shared a video of people shouting “white power” and said they were “great.” Just like he did after Charlottesville.
We’re in a battle for the soul of the nation — and the President has picked a side. But make no mistake: it’s a battle we will win.
