During his speech on Saturday night, President Trump expressed the joy he felt when he sees police officers pushing and fighting against protestors in reference to the aftermath of George Floyd’s death. He says, “Wasn’t that beautiful in Minneapolis? They came in, these soldiers wore the most expensive helmets in the history of mankind…they have more computers, they have everything. They could look at somebody and they’re gone.”
He continues to add how protestors use rocks and other items to counterattack against police officers since they are not allowed to use tear gas or pepper spray but noted how “beautiful” it was for the National Guard to push themselves against protestors.
“But you’re not allowed to guard yourself with tear gas, pepper spray which is 100 percent are effective. So they just march forward and the whole thing was over. It was like over, right? I don’t know! There’s something about that. When you watched everybody getting pushed around, there’s something very beautiful about it. I don’t care about what anyways.”

President Trump also mentioned Governor Gretchen Whitmer and the kidnapping plot, claiming she blamed him for encouraging the suspects while his supporters chanted “Lock her up! Lock her up!” Whitmer clapped back at Trump and said his speech is a prime example of endangering her and her family’s safety in Michigan.
This is exactly the rhetoric that has put me, my family, and other government officials’ lives in danger while we try to save the lives of our fellow Americans. It needs to stop. https://t.co/EWkNQx3Ppx
