Lindsey Horvath, the mayor of West Hollywood, California says Donald Trump is not welcome in her city because she claims Trump has “used hate speech.”
In an interview on “CNN Newsroom With Brooke Baldwin” Tuesday, Horvath said, “the way that Donald Trump has used hate speech, his violent tactics and systemically targeting people for their religion, for their country of origin, for their gender, is not the kind of behavior, not the kind of language that we want in our community.” (RELATED: Thousands Sign Petition Demanding Deportation Of Trump’s Star From Hollywood Walk Of Fame)
Horvath claimed, “West Hollywood is a very diverse community, we’re over 40 percent LGBT. We have Russian-speaking immigrants, some of whom were concentration camp survivors. We’re the first declared pro-choice city in America. We created the first transgender advisory board. Our city is very diverse. We’re very open. We’re very welcoming. And that’s the kind of community we want to continue to be.”
Baldwin followed up asking Horvath if as mayor, she had the authority to ban Trump from entering her city, to which the mayor replied, “Not everyone who comes to the state needs to apply for the permit and we’re not greeting Mr. Trump at the border with our sheriff’s department.”
“This isn’t about free speech, this is about hate speech. We don’t want violent tactics, the kind of violent tactics that Mr. Trump himself has encouraged and his supports continue to use.”
