Over the objections of the mayor and the governor, Trump went ahead with a visit to Kenosha Wisconsin. He hasn't visited Portland, Oregon which has seen larger protests-- but then again, Oregon isn't a battleground state for the upcoming election.
During his visit Trump didn't visit Jacob Blake's family or even mention Jacob's name. He seemed more interested in property damage made by BLM protesters than the human toll levied by Trump supporter Kyle Rittenhouse, who actually killed people.
Trump was so callous, he shockingly compared the cop shooting Blake in the back seven times to a golfer who chokes and misses a 3-foot putt.
He also lied about the federal government sending in the national guard-- the troops were authorized by the Wisconsin governor and were under the state's command the entire time.
Trump claimed his goal for visiting Kenosha was to unite people, but when asked if there is systemic racism, he instead attacked protesters.
