President Trump on Murder at White Supremacist Rally: ‘I Think There’s Blame on Both Sides’

Speaking to a room of stunned reporters on Tuesday, President Trump doubled down on his belief that the violence in Charlottesville this weekend was as much the responsibility of the “alt left” as neo-Nazis.
