Charlottesville mayor: We're not seeing leadership from the White House
Charlottesville Mayor Michael Signer (D) on Sunday ripped President Trump's response to violent clashes in the city that were spurred by a white nationalist rally.
"Our democracy has been through a lot in the last century. Our city has been through a lot in the last century. We have come in this country through McCarthyism, segregation, Jim Crowe, and we've come through stronger than before that, but what's going to happen now is that we're all going to stand together on this new effort and that begins with a city like Charlottesville, but it should include the president," Signer told CNN's Jake Tapper on "State of the Union."
