Washington (AP) President Donald Trump danced around a question from moderator Chris Wallace about whether he was willing to condemn white supremacists and military groups. I would say almost everything I see is from the left wing, not the right wing, Trump responded. I’m willing to do anything. I want to see peace. When pressed further, Trump said, What do you want to call them? Give me a name. Give me a name? Finally, he said, Proud Boys – Stand back, stand by, but I’ll tell you what, somebody’s got to do something about Antifa and the left because this is not right-wing problem…This is a left wing problem.” Antifa followers have appeared at anti-racism protests, but there’s been little evidence behind Republican claims that antifa members are to blame for the violence at such protests.
Trump infamously said there were good people on both sides after a white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, that led to the death of a counterprotester. (AP) .
