A day after President Donald Trump said both sides were responsible for the violence in Charlottesville which saw one person killed, Vice President Mike Pence said he stands with the president.

“What happened in Charlottesville was a tragedy. And the president has been clear on this tragedy and so have I,” Pence said at a press conference in Chile where he is visiting as part of a Latin American tour.
