At a press conference in the lobby of Trump Tower on Tuesday, President Donald Trump doubled down on his original comments that “many sides” were responsible for the violent rallies in Charlottesville, VA. where a man believed to be a white supremacist allegedly drove his car into a crowd of counter demonstrators, killing a woman in the process.

During the press conference, Trump defended a procession that included torch-carrying white nationalists who chanted “blood and soil” and “Jews will not replace us,” by reducing them to “people protesting very quietly the taking down of statue of Robert E. Lee.”

Following his remarks, the President received backlash for his comments, especially online where the public sounded off on his press conference. Some of his most vocal detractors on the Internet were high-profile celebrities who used their platform to not only critique the President but to show support for communities who were marginalized by his stance.
