Mother of Charlottesville victim Heather Heyer says she is 'not talking' to Trump

Mother of Charlottesville victim Heather Heyer revealed on Friday morning she is "not talking" to President Trump after he criticized "two sides" for the violent protests that broke out in Virginia last Saturday.

Thirty-two-year-old Heyer was killed last Saturday when a car plowed into a group of counterprotesters opposing the "Unite the Right" rally. Heyer's mother, Susan Bro, strayed from directly speaking to Trump's rhetoric in response to Saturday's events during her memorial service on Wednesday, but did not hold back during a Friday morning appearance on "Good Morning America."

"I'm not talking to the President now," Bro said on Friday. "I'm sorry. After what he said about my child, and it's not that I saw somebody else's tweets about him. I saw an actual clip of him at a press conference equating the protesters like Ms. (Heather) Heyer with the KKK and the white supremacists."

Trump tweeted about Heyer on the day of her memorial service, referring to her as a "truly special young woman."

"Memorial service today for beautiful and incredible Heather Heyer, a truly special young woman," Trump tweeted. "She will be long remembered by all!"

Trump opened himself up to criticism when he repeated his "both sides" response to Charlottesville during a Tuesday press conference -- a statement that was met with rebuke from Democrats and Republicans alike. While he tweeted about Heyer on Wednesday, the president was criticized for not directly calling the family -- but Bro revealed there has been attempted and successful engagement between her and the White House.

"At first I just missed his calls. The call -- the first call looked like actually came during the funeral. I didn't even see that message," Bro said. "There were three more frantic messages from press secretaries throughout the day and I didn't know why that would have been on Wednesday, and I was home recovering from the exhaustion of the funeral and, so I thought well, I'll get to him later and then I had more meetings to establish her foundation, so I hadn't really watched the news until last night."

James Alex Fields Jr. of Ohio has been charged with second-degree murder in the case of Heyer's death.
