Will Donald Trump say anything about the shooting of Jacob Blake?

Three members of his family are speaking tonight. Will they mention it?

Will any of the Republican speakers bring it up tonight?

Knowing Trump, he will only bring it up if he is persuaded it is to his political benefit.

At the same time, they want to point their fingers at someone else for the riots and social unrest caused by police brutality. They refuse to look in the mirror.

Or by his party of Sycophants. They could care less for the sufferings of others, unless they can benefit politically.

This shooting is just another inconvenience to Trump as he tries to crack down wirh force to show is is a tough guy, while throwing even more gasoline into the racial fire.
