WASHINGTON - US President Donald Trump said on Thursday in an interview that he condemned the Proud Boys, a militant group that supports him, after declining to directly condemn white supremacists during Tuesday's presidential debate.
"I condemn the KKK, I condemn all white supremacists, I condemn the Proud Boys," Mr Trump said in an interview on Fox News, after insisting that he had long condemned such groups.Mr Trump came under criticism following the debate after he said only"sure" and"I will" after moderator Chris Wallace of Fox News invited him to condemn white supremacists.
Mr Trump said the next day that he meant the group should"stand down" and allow police to regulate leftist protesters.
Never heard of it. It’s in his head (again!)
