While wrapping up the rally on Friday, Trump was questioned about his thoughts on Jacob Blake’s shooting and if the shooting was justified. He says, “I’m looking into it very strongly. I’ll be getting reports and I’ll certainly let you know pretty soon. But It was not a good sight. I didn’t like the sight of it certainly. And I think most people would agree with that,”

The president also plans to visit Kenosha on Tuesday and will meet with law enforcement to discuss the damage due to recent protests. There were no confirmed reports of Trump’s plans to meet with Blake’s family.

During his speech at the Republican National Convention, he opposed the looting and rioting in “Democrat-run cities” which also included Portland, Seattle, and others. Amid the violence surrounding the protests, the National Guard was deployed to lessen tensions among protestors and right-wing supporters.

Amid the protests, a deadly shooting broke out which killed two protestors and 17-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse was arrested on homicide charges. He faces a life sentence in prison if convicted for the acts.
