Former Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe: Racists No Longer Feel The Need To Wear Hoods Because Trump [VIDEO]

“To see these neo-Nazis and white supremacists, about a thousand walking down the streets screaming most vile things about members of the African American community about members of the Jewish faith – I’ve never seen anything like it. People used to wear hoods in this country because they this country because they wanted to disguise themselves. They don’t feel the need to do that anymore.

“I talked to the President that afternoon, explained him the situation, what had been going on, what these people were doing in the city of Charlottesville. When he came out and gave his statement that it was both sides’ fault, I’ve got to tell you, it was shocking to me. It wasn’t both sides. You had one side of neo-Nazis wearing Adolph Hitler T-shirts, the white supremacists screaming obscenities at the African American community walking down the streets. They came armed.

“There’s a time in your presidency when you need to show moral leadership and you need to stand and send a message to the world. He failed that day.” – Former Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe, speaking this morning on CNN.
