WASHINGTON (Reuters) - President Donald Trump said on Wednesday the "Proud Boys," an organization identified as a hate group, should "stand down" and let law enforcement take the lead, following comments he made in the first presidential debate that were viewed as emboldening the group.
"I don't know who the Proud Boys are," the Republican president told reporters at the White House before leaving for a campaign event. "They have to stand down. Let law enforcement do their work."
