"What do you think they [protesters] want?" Harris Faulkner of Fox News asked the president. "What do you think they need, right now, from you?"

 

Here was Trump's answer, verbatim:

"Protesters for different reasons. You're protesting also because, you know, they just didn't know. I've watch - I watched very closely. Why are you here? They really weren't able to say, but they were there for a reason, perhaps.

"But a lot of them really were there because they're following the crowd. A lot of them were there because what we witnessed was a terrible thing. What we saw was a terrible thing. And we've seen it over the years. We haven't, you know, this was one horrible example, but you've seen other terrible examples. You know that better than anybody who would know it. And I know it. I've seen it, too. I've seen it before I was president. I've seen it. I think it's a shame. I think it's a disgrace. And it's got to stop."

That is all a very fair assesment. I'm all about talking about the DNC's choices to cancel primaries and shove Kamala. Not having the foresight to plan a contender the moment biden got elected in 2020.

I'm not here to defend Biden, im more pointing out the insane political miscalculation of the left-wing media, to joing the right wing media, and comeplete derail the conversation about the elections ISSUES, only to discuss bidens age and mental abilities. Now we've got a 79 year old mad man destroying the country so ya, lets forget biden and focus on the DNC.
