    WASHINGTON – President Donald Trump criticized a proposed Black Lives
    Matter mural to be painted outside Trump Tower as a "symbol of hate"
    Wednesday while denouncing New York City Mayor Bill de Blasio, who ordered
    the phrase painted outside Trump's longtime office.

    De Blasio said he ordered the mural – the words "Black Lives Matter"
    painted in bright letters – to be placed right in front of Trump Tower for
    a reason.

    "We’re going to take this moment in history and amplify it by taking the ‘Black Lives Matter’ symbolism and putting it all over this city,
    including right in front of Trump Tower,” the mayor told MSNBC on
    Wednesday.

    Trump responded by attacking the mayor for the mural and his plan to cut
    up to $1 billion from the New York City police budget.

    The president did not mention that the Black Lives Matter mural is slated
    to be right outside Trump Tower. Trump ruled his real estate and media
    empire from the glass skyscraper that opened in 1983. Trump Tower also
    served as the home base for his television show, "The Apprentice," as well
    as his 2016 presidential campaign.

    De Blasio said painting Black Lives Matter on Fifth Avenue is designed in
    part to send a message to Trump.

    "It's an important message to the whole nation, and obviously we want the president to hear it because he's never shown respect for those three
    words," de Blasio said on MSNBC. "When he hears 'Black Lives Matter,' he presents a horrible, negative reality of something that doesn't exist and
    he misses the underlying meaning that we're saying we have to honor the
    role of African Americans in our history and in our society."

    Trump and aides have described some supporters of Black Lives Matter as vandals. They cite property damage and some violence during nationwide
    protests of police brutality, particularly after the May 25 death of
    George Floyd at the hands of officers in Minneapolis.

    White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany said Trump does believe that "black lives matter," but he condemns the anti-police chants made by some members of the Black Lives Matter organization

    Supporters of Black Lives Matter said Trump is trying to lump an entire
    group of people with the few who grew violent at some of the protests.
    They said Trump is simply trying to appeal to white racists who are part
    of his political base.

    "The man who spent the entire morning tweeting about preserving the legacy
    of the confederacy and its inextricable link to slavery thinks declaring
    that Black people have the right to live and be treated fairly is
    hateful," tweeted Bishop Talbert Swan, a pastor and radio host. "This is America."

    Rick Tyler, an anti-Trump Republican strategist, called the Black Lives
    Matter tweet "unhinged" – and probably not the last time we hear from
    Trump on the subject.

    "Let’s see how he reacts when they paint it in front of Trump Tower,"
    Tyler said.

    The phrase "Black Lives Matter," written in massive 50-foot yellow
    letters, was painted on Washington, D.C., street just north of the White
    House in early June. Similar tributes can now be seen on streets across
    the U.S.
