Susan Bro, Heather Heyer’s Mom, Won’t Speak To Donald Trump – HuffPost

Susan Bro, whose daughter Heather Heyer was killed by a car at a white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, last weekend, says she wont be speaking to President Donald Trump.

I have not [spoken to Trump], and now I will not, Bro said on ABCs Good Morning America Friday.

Bro said the White House tried to reach out to her multiple times the day of her daughters funeral, and she simply missed the calls.But after seeing video of Trumps Tuesday press conference, during which he defended white supremacists and railed against counterprotesters, Bro said she doesnt wish to speak to him.

I hadnt really watched the news until last night, and Im not talking to the president now, she said. Im sorry. After what he said about my child, and, its not that I saw somebody elses tweets about him, I saw an actual clip of him at a press conference equating the protesters like Ms. Heyer with the KKK and the white supremacists.

During hisremarks Tuesday, Trump argued both sides in Charlottesville were responsible for violence.

You had a group on one side who was bad, and you had a group on the other side that was also very violent, and nobody wants to say that, but Ill say it right now, Trump said before also commenting that there were very fine people on both sides.

Bro said shes not forgiving Trump for the remarks.

You cant wash this one away by shaking my hand and saying Im sorry, Bro said.
