Yesterday, President Donald Trump retweeted a video that included
one of his supporters yelling “white power” in response to
protesters. Trump thanked the "great people" in the video. 
The president later deleted the tweet and the White House said he
had not heard the racist chant in the video, which depicted
arguments among residents of The Villages, a predominantly white
and conservative Florida retirement community.  Some critics
said the president was trying to distract attention from another
growing scandal: an intelligence report that concluded Russia had
paid a bounty to the Taliban to kill American troops serving in
Afghanistan.  We’ll talk about those two stories and more with
GOP political consultant Mike Madrid.
