Trump Shares Video of Man Chanting ‘White Power’

June 28, 2020 at 11:02 am EDT By Taegan Goddard Leave a Comment

President Trump shared a video he said is from the Villages, a retirement community in Florida, in which a man driving a golf cart with Trump campaign sign is chanting “white power.”

The president thanked the “great people” shown in the video.

Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) told CNN that Trump should take down the video as it is “indefensible.”
