Signer blamed President Trump for playing on our worst prejudices

The mayor wants to blame President Trump for the violence in his city on Saturday. This was after he called off the police and refused to offer protection to protesters he did not agree with.

Mayor Signer wrote a book praising James Madison who owned over a hundred slaves and the creator of the Three-Fifths Compromise.

Amazon’s review of a book on James Madison written by Mayor Signer, Charlottesville, VA reads: “Michael Signer takes a fresh look at the life of our fourth president. His focus is on Madison before he turned thirty-six, the years in which he did his most enduring work: battling with Patrick Henry—the most charismatic politician in revolutionary America, whose political philosophy and ruthless tactics eerily foreshadowed those of today’s Tea Party—over religious freedom; introducing his framework for a strong central government; becoming the intellectual godfather of the Constitution; and providing a crucial role at Virginia’s convention to ratify the Constitution in 1788, when the nation’s future hung in the balance. Signer’s young James Madison is a role model for the leaders so badly needed today.”
