Mulvaney, speaking on CBS "Face the Nation" on Sunday pushed back on the idea that "every time something bad happens ... folks who don't like Donald Trump, blame it on Donald Trump." On "Fox News Sunday" Mulvaney said: " The President is not a white supremacist . His implication that people who criticize Trump for such behavior are effectively accusing him of inciting horrific violence himself, blurs the argument in order to shield the President. The President's attacks sparked a response from McCain's friend, Sen. Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, who is usually a strong Trump supporter. The Radical Left Democrats, working closely with their beloved partner, the Fake News Media, is using every trick in the book to SILENCE a majority of our Country," Trump wrote on Twitter.
