The mother of a woman killed in violent clashes at a white supremacist rally has said she has "no interest" in speaking with President Donald Trump. Susan Bro said she refuses to speak to Mr Trump after hearing him equate demonstrators, like her daughter, with white supremacists. Her daughter, Heather Heyer, was killed on Saturday after a car ploughed through a crowd of counter-protesters. She said she did not "want to be used for political agendas". Mrs Bro told ABC New's Good Morning America television programme she missed a call from the White House, which appeared to have been made during her daughter's public memorial on Wednesday. She added that she received three more "frantic messages" from Mr Trump's press team later in the day but was too exhausted from the funeral to talk. It was when she saw a news clip of Mr Trump again blaming both sides for the violence that she changed her mind about speaking to the president.
"It's not that I saw somebody else's tweets about him, I saw an actual clip of him at a press conference equating the protesters... with the [Ku Klux Klan] and the white supremacists," she said on Friday. "You can't wash this one away by shaking my hand and saying, 'I'm sorry.' I'm not forgiving that." A day earlier Mrs Bro told MSNBC she had received death threats after speaking out about her daughter's death and the president's comments.
Mr Trump drew outrage this week after reversing his condemnation of Saturday's far-right rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, which was supported by white supremacists and neo-Nazis protesting against the removal of a statue of Robert E Lee, a general who had fought for the pro-slavery Confederacy during the US Civil War.

Exactly. Anyone who actually listens to the full Trump presser, and says this, is a liar.
And RINOs everywhere are caving to liars, or are liars themselves.
Tool of the day.
She lies.
Trump did not equate her daughter with White Supremacists.
Trump said there was violence on both sides, he did not say or imply that included her daughter.
There were mixtures of people on both sides, and among them some went their innocently, but not all. On both sides some groups went willing and ready to commit violence. Trump in now way implied that meant the girl who died. She went there innocently enough. That does not mean every else she joined with did, and when it comes to Antifa THEY certainly did not.
Does anyone doubt the MSM is feeding her salad bowls of fake news?
When I see a story like this, I also speculate that a lot of people are starting to believe that the guy who is custody for driving into the crowd is going to get off on the most serious charges against him.
there ya go...
“Heather Heyer was murdered in Charlottesville”
Ha! Good luck making that charge stick.
The crazy thing is, all those “supremacists” you name hate Jewish people and Israel. A pox on all of them.
Unless you've lost a child understand that what comes out if your mouth the week after the funeral ( or even the year) should not be held against you especially if it was contrived by the press
Trump specifically said, I hear she was a fine — really, actually, an incredible young woman. People are really going out of their way to be stupid. Most people will see right through this.
I will laugh my ass off if this kid driving the car gets off, after it was proven he sped away out of fear of being attacked vs. intentionally hitting this idiot agitator....
[Heather Heyer was murdered in Charlottesville

No one wants to believe that they screwed up their own kids this much. So, they blame all of their problems on someone else - usually some one/thing that is very public and may try to buy their way out of the spot light.
I am fairly confident he will go to jail forever, unless there is something none of us know. I just don’t see how the girls death could warrant a murder charge.
The murder charge was a reflexive response, and was also aimed at holding him without bail while the investigation and extensive forensic police work is done. There are far too many mitigating factors here that add up in the “reasonable doubt” category to make a murder charge stick, in my humble opinion.
From the article: She said she did not “want to be used for political agendas”
Then she proceeds to do exactly that.
Funny how we have not heard anything from the drivers of the silver Caddy and the minivan that were stopped by ther crowd before Fields came down the street.
Where are there statements?
:)
[[Most people will see right through this.]]
It isn’t most people that matters- it’s the small group of hateful racist liberal that are shouting the loudest that matter now- because they are the ones turning to fury to destroy this nation via mob rule- They have the MSM on their side- and the MSM is whipping liberals and independents into a frenzy all across this nation- similar to what happened in fuergeson and florida- The MSM wants a civil war- or at least massive riots all across this nation- and the “New Truth” according to them is that president trump is a racist who hates minorities- and they will stop at nothing to get him either impeached or forced to resign-
Again- we are entering a very very dangerous time where them ob are taking over- and the right are doing nothing to stop it- the left smell blood- and they are the ones calling the shots now and the right has issued a ‘strand down’ order allowing the left to do whatever they want—
I agree that the majority will see through it- but what really matters now is how the right will react to the mob rule of the left and the MSM-
In the article:
“Mr Trump”: 7
“President [Donald] Trump]: 1
I would say that that one mention of his title was done only as a matter of form, to distinguish him from Donald Jr.
Of course he didn’t make that equation. They didn’t listen carefully to what he did actually say, and the MSM is deliberately feeding and furthering the deception.
Initially I did feel sympathy for her loss. Now I couldn’t care less. Too freaking bad, you stupid mother, for raising a child as stupid as you are. My sympathies will only be extended to patriots who are injured or suffer for the cause of liberty.
