On Anniversary of Charlottesville, White Supremacist Rally in D.C. Fizzles
--------------------------------------------------------------------------

In Washington, a white supremacist rally outside the White House largely
fizzled on Sunday when just over two dozen people showed up for the
Unite the Right protest. They were vastly outnumbered by counter
protesters, journalists and police officers. Sunday's Unite the Right
rally came a year after the deadly white supremacist protest in
Charlottesville. President Trump marked the anniversary of
Charlottesville by writing on Twitter, "I condemn all types of racism."
Shortly after the deadly Charlottesville protest last year, Trump said
there were "very fine people on both sides."
