Twitter Users Hail Woman In 'White Power' Video Who Stood Up To Trump Supporters

06/29/2020 04:14 am ET

By Ed Mazza

A Florida woman is winning fans on social media for a brief appearance in President Donald Trump’s “white power” video in which she called out both the president and his supporters.

On Sunday, Trump tweeted footage of his supporters in a retirement community known as The Villages ― who he called “great people” ― including one who shouted the racist phrase. Trump later deleted the video and the White House claimed he didn’t hear the “white power” shout.

But Twitter users noticed that not everyone in the clip was a Trump fan. A woman named Sharon Sandler was seen in the video yelling at the president’s supporters and offering a steady stream of expletives at a parade of golf carts with pro-Trump signs and banners.

. . .

“This is a brain-washed cult here and our country is going down the drain,” she told the website. “We have a pervert, a lying piece of garbage for president, and we need to get rid of him.

They both gave the drones an earful.
Good for them both!
And, they weren't alone.
The video I saw looked about 50:50.
Unrest in the Villages?
