Scott, Bondi Condemn White Supremacists, But Not Trump's ‘fine People’ Comments

TALLAHASSEE — Donald Trump’s top supporters in Florida, Gov. Rick Scott and Attorney General Pam Bondi, condemned white supremacy Wednesday, but refused to criticize the president's comments that “very fine people” were found among the neo-Nazis involved in last weekend's racially charged clashes in Charlottesville, Virginia.“You can ask President Trump what he said,” Scott told reporters when asked his thoughts about the president’s comments."I haven’t talked to the president since then, so you’re going to have to ask him about those comments,” Bondi said at the same time after the Florida Cabinet met.For more than a day, Republicans across the state and nation have been under intense scrutiny to react to Trump’s statements about the nature of the protesters and his belief that there’s “blame on both sides” for violence at the Charlottesville rally organized by white supremacists.Scott, though, is not distancing himself from Trump’s comments.
