Villages-News.com, an independent news source serving the community, covered the controversy, beginning with the video that Trump tweeted and continuing with a story about the tweet and another one about Villagers for Trump distancing itself from the man, "who was identified by multiple media sources as a retired Miami-Dade County firefighter." It noted that he yelled the phrase “at Democratic protesters who labeled the parade participants as 'Nazi lovers' and 'cult' members. The protesters also shouted '(expletive deleted) Trump'.”
Villages News also published several letters to the editor, including one from Gary Segal of Pine Ridge, who wrote, "I very much enjoyed the video, but I was wondering why there was no mention of the parade in The Villages Daily Sun, especially the part where several drivers and passengers were yelling, 'White Power!' I think that might be newsworthy."
The Villages Daily Sun has not responded to The Rural Blog's request for comment.
