Trump, WH yet to condemn 'white power' retweet
One WH aide pointed to the "tremendous enthusiasm" of supporters in the video.
During protests in the wake of George Floyd's death, Trump tweeted \"when the looting starts, the shooting starts\" tweet, marking the first time the platform slapped a warning label on the president's tweet. It did so again last week for Trump's tweet threatening \"serious force\" against protesters attempting to form a \"Black House Autonomous Zone\" outside the White House.
As the nation continues to grapple with unrest, Trump on Monday morning retweeted an ABC News video tweet of a white couple, armed with guns pointed at Black Lives Matter protesters in St. Louis as they marched toward the mayor's home to demand her resignation Sunday night.
