RICHMOND Former Virginia attorney general Ken Cuccinelli II on Monday found himself trending on Twitter, and not in a good way, after telling CNN political commentator Symone Sanders to shut up on TV.
The remark came during a heated discussion about President Trumps response to deadly violence that erupted over the weekend at a white supremacist rally in Charlottesville.
Sanders was critical of Trump for not calling out rally participants as white supremacists, neo-Nazis and Klansmen, blaming the omission on the influence of white supremacist sympathizers in the White House, including chief strategist Stephen K. Bannon.
Cuccinelli, a Republican though hardly a Trump cheerleader, took issue with efforts to smear the administration.
