Bro, who had thanked Trump in a statement on Monday for his "words of comfort and for denouncing those who promote violence and hatred,” said she was recovering from the "exhaustion of the funeral" Wednesday and did not return the White House messages.

She said her opinion of Trump’s response changed after she had time to watch news coverage of the Charlottesville protests after laying Heyer, 32, to rest on Wednesday.

"I hadn’t really watched the news until last night and I’m not talking to the president now, I'm sorry, after what he said about my child," Bro explained. "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 KKK and the white supremacists."

She continued, "You can’t wash this one away by shaking my hand and saying, ‘I’m sorry.’ I’m not forgiving for that."

The power of our media ladies and gentleman. She went from thanking Trump for his words condemning all hatred and bigotry to watching the media coverage and completing changing her mind.

Everywhere you look it's people with power talking shite about Trump. A lot of it is probably just PR but it's gone too far. You can't even vocally support him without being called a fricking white supremacist now.

Nope, it's the power of the president's buffoonery:

The media didn't put those words in his mouth. He said them, and now he owns them.

I don't blame this woman one bit. She's lost a daughter and the fricking president is equating her dead daughter with the white supremacist nazis who killed her. He's trying to play politics and tiptoe the line between her daughter's "side" and the murderers' "side" because he doesn't want his nazi white supremacist base to turn against him. She has every right to be pissed off at him. Hell, we all do.

Of the President's later words that said there were some "good guys" among the Nazis that killed her child.

CNN berated her when she wasn't calling Trump a racist hitler.

The poor woman lost her daughter and the whole world watched it happen. I wouldn't use her to prove a political point.

Let her grieve any way she chooses. That's her right.

Look.

I'm not going to speak ill of the dead.

But, her daughter aligned with ANTIFA.

The apple likely didn't fall that far from the tree.

There needs to be some accountability for the lying MSM.

Trump made 2 speeches in that time.

The one on Monday, no one had issues with other than "too late".

The one on Wednesday, people had issue with his equivalence.

It is reasonable to assume she changed how mind on her own.

This thread is a reach.
