Politico notes that some of the Trump supporters who beat up protesters are now wailing that it’s not their fault:
A white nationalist leader accused of assaulting a young African-American woman at a Donald Trump campaign rally filed a countersuit on Monday claiming the president directed him and other supporters to remove protesters.
Matthew Heimbach claims in his federal court filing that he “acted pursuant to the directives and requests of Donald J. Trump and Donald J. Trump for President” and that, if he’s found liable for damages, “any liability must be shifted to one or both of them.”
Too bad, buddy. Americans take on moral responsibility for themselves. You knew beating her up was a crime.
Maybe you should sue your parents.
