Donald Trump's silence after the clashes caused by white supremacists against protesters in Charlottesville, Virginia, has brought him a series of criticisms. The president of the United States has avoided giving a forceful statement condemning the aggressors.

“We must all be a unit and condemn any kind of hatred. There is no place for this kind of violence in America. We are going to come together as if we were one, Trump wrote on his Twitter account.

However, he was subsequently pressured by the press, during a conference in New Jersey, to take a more energetic position against the attackers, which did not happen.

"We condemn in the strongest possible terms this blatant display of hatred, bigotry and violence - on many sides, on many sides," said the commander-in-chief. “It has been happening for a long time in our country. It is not Donald Trump. It is not Barack Obama. It's been going on for a long time."

The pronouncements of the Latin union before these vague declarations were immediate.

Jennifer López uploaded a video to her Instagram account with the text "I have a message for all white and Nazi supremacists."

For her part, Eva Longoria also used this social network to give a deep message, with the image of a red heart.

“I constantly ask myself, what else can I do to help this country? To help Americans who suffer every day. My heart breaks when I see what happened in Charlottesville.”

María Elena Salinas described the acts as "internal terrorism".

Our editorial director, Armando Correa, also expressed his outrage in this regard.

"The new America … Populism = Nationalism = Racism = Trumpism," he wrote.

So far, Donald Trump has only given messages of condolences to those who have been injured and even lost their lives during this attack, but he continues without condemning the members of the white supremacy who started the attacks.
