Q: Have you talked to Trump directly yet? - Heather Heyer's mom: "I have not, & now I will not"

Q: Have you talked to President Trump directly yet?

Heather Heyer's mom, Susan Bro: "I have not, and now I will not."


"i hadn't really watched the news until last night, and I'm not talking to the President now, I'm sorry, after what he said about my child"

"I saw an actual clip of him at a press conference equating the protestors like 'Miss Heyer' with the KKK and the white supremacists."

"You can't wash this one away by shaking my hand and saying I'm sorry."

this grieving mother to provide cover for his hateful remarks. He is despicable. I'm glad that Mrs. Bro saw his Trump Tower unhinged remarks before she talked to him.
