Trump is not welcomed in Pittsburg https://thehill.com/homenews/administration/413558-jewish-leaders-say-trumps-not-welcome-in-pittsburgh-until-he
A group of Jewish leaders told President Trump that he is no longer welcome in Pittsburgh until he denounces white nationalism following the shooting at a synagogue there over the weekend.
Eleven members of the Pittsburgh affiliate of Bend the Arc: A Jewish Partnership for Justice penned a letter to Trump following the Saturday shooting at the Tree of Life Synagogue.
Our Jewish community is not the only group you have targeted, the group wrote. You have also deliberately undermined the safety of people of color, Muslims, LGBTQ people, and people with disabilities. Yesterdays massacre is not the first act of terror you incited against a minority group in our country.
Trump was fiercely criticized after he failed to condemn white supremacy and asserted that there is blame on both sides after last years white supremacist rally in Charlottesville, Va.

I hope he stays far away. His presence would do nothing but add insult to injury.

TrumPutin will never denounce white nationalism (even if someone fully explains it to him) and will never stop targeting and endangering minorities. He has gained cheers by doing the opposite and will not give them up.
