EXCERPT:

MCAULIFFE: "I think so. I issued a statement to that effect yesterday. This is my first interview after what happened on Saturday here in Charlottesville. I thought [it's] important that I speak to the citizens of the commonwealth. So I've spent the last five days traveling all over Virginia talking about healing and reconciliation and how we move forward together. But I did issue a statement last night, that's why -- one reason I want to talk to you Charlie is they need to come down. They’re divisive symbols."
