Tim Scott: Trump's 'moral authority is compromised' after latest Charlottesville comments

Sen. Tim Scott said Thursday that President Trump had lost “moral authority” in the aftermath of the weekend violence in Charlottesville, Va., according to a report.

“I’m not going to defend the indefensible,” the South Carolina Republican told Vice News, referring to the president’s comments about the deadly unrest at a Unite the Right rally held in the Virginia city Saturday. “[Trump’s] comments on Monday were strong. His comments on Tuesday started erasing the comments that were strong.”
