White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders pushed back again such criticism, saying Trump 'has condemned not only this act, but all acts of evil and hatred and racism and bigotry.'
Senator Dick Durbin labeled the Saturday shooting at the Chabad of Poway synagogue in California “domestic terrorism,” pointing a finger at President Donald Trump’s rhetoric for giving “license” to white supremacists to carry out such attacks.
Durbin then argued that Trump was encouraging white nationalists and white supremacists, with a “wink and a nod.” He pointed to recent comments by the president in which he doubled down on his defense of white supremacist and alt-right demonstrators in Charlottesville, Virginia back in 2017. The president argued last week that those individuals were simply defending the statue of the “great general” Robert E. Lee, who led the Confederate army during the Civil War.
The senator said Trump and his rhetoric are “very loose.” He argued that this made people “feel [they have a] permission slip to move forward in areas they never have before.”
