Trump linked George Floyd’s death protests to Radical Left and Antifa
US President Donald Trump alleged the radical left and Antifa for the recent unrest across America after the death of a Black man, George Floyd. He said, “Don’t lay the blame on others”! Trump used his Twitter account to repeatedly call into question the concepts and causes of protesters. President insisted that there were organized groups have nothing to do with George Floyd but pushing the protests, including anti-fascist groups. On Friday night, the White House went into partial lockdown at one point due to nearby demonstrators. Trump has now dismissed (professionally managed) so-called protesters, who had little to do with the memory of George Floyd. He tweeted, “Tonight, I understand, is MAGA NIGHT AT THE WHITE HOUSE???”
The claim from the US President came as the Governor of Minnesota already claimed protests over the death of George Floyd had been hijacked by extremists, domestic terrorists, and supposedly some foreign forces. Tim Walz said, “The situation in Minneapolis is no longer in any way about the murder of George Floyd. It is about attacking civil society, instilling fear, and disrupting our great cities”. Point to be noted that these claims follow a night of widespread looting and arson in Minneapolis and nearby St Paul during local curfews. It is important that reporters also asked about rumors that white supremacists were secretly
Reporters also asked about rumors that white supremacists were secretly penetrating Black Lives Matter protests and instigating violence. Walz said, “My suspicions and what I’ve seen on this, yes. It gets worse than that. The cartels, who are wondering if there was a break in their drug transmissions, are trying to take advantage of the chaos. That’s why this situation is on a federal level”. President Trump said American people are still experiencing various challenges, but showed his hoped that all crisis in the country will come to an end very soon.
