Pastor Darrell Scott, president of the National Diversity Coalition for Trump, agreed with the president on there being violent intentions from far-left groups at the Charlottesville protests.

Pastor Scott told MSNBC's Katy Tur on Tuesday that he believed many people were giving the counter-protesters "a pass" when it came to some of their own having violent intentions.

"They came with the intent to incite violence," Scott said. "They were walking down the street with pepper spray and they were walking down the street with homemade flamethrowers."

"Let's not act like they did not know with the intent to shut that protest down by whatever means necessary."
