Two days after Donald Trump, his Democratic rival, Joe Biden, is also visiting the city of Kenosha. The officers who shot Jacob Blake “should at least be charged,” Biden said.
Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden has spoken out in favor of two counts of police violence against black Americans that have plagued the country. It is about the shooting of a policeman on the back of Jacob Blake in the city of Kenosha and the case of Breonna Taylor, who was killed in a police operation at his home.
“I think they should at least be charged,” Biden said of the police officers in response to a related question Wednesday. Procedures must make their way through the judicial system, he also stressed.
It was the first time in months that Biden had asked reporters questions. Therefore, his answers attracted more attention than his speech on the education system in the crown crisis, which he gave earlier.
Biden plans to go to Kenosha on Thursday, two days after President Donald Trump. He wants to be a positive influence, Biden said. In Kenosha there were protests and riots after the shooting in Blake. Trump had met there Tuesday with representatives of the security authorities and businessmen affected by the unrest. There was no meeting with Blake’s family, who survived the seven shots with serious injuries.
Election campaign from home
Biden defended his previous strategy of campaigning primarily online from his place of residence. “I want to set a good example,” Biden said, referring to the dangers of major events in the crown crisis. Trump has repeatedly appeared in front of his supporters in various cities in recent days. Television images showed that many were not wearing masks.
Biden said he and Trump spoke about the crown crisis in March. He told Trump what, in his opinion, needed to be done to safely relax protective measures, Biden said. “He was very polite, he listened, he said he would think about it and that was it.”
