Joe Biden responds to Trump's batshit crazy statement regarding Mr. Floyd:

Joe Biden: "George Floyd's last words, 'I can't breathe, I can't breathe,' have echoed all across this nation...For the president to try to put any other words in the mouth of George Floyd I frankly think is despicable." https://abcn.ws/2MAlzGd

Donald Trump invoking George Floyd to rally around the economy shows, once again, that he lacks the part of his brain associated with being a human. I'm not even talking about empathy at this point. Just a basic understanding of being a person.
