White House Defends Trump as ‘Entirely Correct’

The White House urged Republican lawmakers to defend President Trump as “entirely correct” in his assertion that Saturday’s violence in Charlottesville was caused by “both sides,” The Atlantic reports.

In its daily “evening communications briefing” sent to GOP members of Congress last night, the White House main talking point is: “The President was entirely correct—both sides of the violence in Charlottesville acted inappropriately, and bear some responsibility.”
