Two days after President Donald Trump made the trip, Democratic nominee Joe Biden and his wife Jill Biden will travel to Kenosha, Wisconsin, on Thursday.
The Biden campaign said the former vice president would hold a community meeting in Kenosha to “heal Americans and address the challenges we face.” After that, J and Jill Biden will both make a ‘local stop’.
Biden hinted after a speech in Pittsburgh on Monday that he was considering moving to Wisconsin City, where Jacob Blake’s police firing weeks ago has led to protests, riots and unrest.
Biden’s campaign has already reached out to Jacob Blake’s family and he plans to meet with them when he travels to Kenosha with his wife, Jill Biden, on Thursday, the Black family told Dailymail.com.
“Biden had contact with the family,” said Blake’s uncle, Jason Blake. ‘They have had a phone conversation with my brother. I am sure they will make a way to meet my family. ‘
He added, “We want someone from the White House to unite the whole country.”
Biden will visit Kenosha, Wisconsin on Thursday for a ‘community meeting’. During his visit to Pittsburgh on Monday, he hinted at a trip to Wisconsin.
President Trump visited Kenosha on Tuesday where he surveyed storm damage and held a roundtable discussion with law enforcement and local officials.
“We believe Biden is trying to unite all Americans. I am thankful to be able to meet him. What I am asking from him is what we are going to ask someone else – that there should be laws and regulations to protect the safety and well-being of African Americans and that there is an economic opportunity to build our own communities. ‘
“We appreciate the way their campaign is going,” he added.
Trump did not meet with the Black family during his visit to Kenosha on Tuesday, nor did he mention the name of the paralyzed black man.
Instead he damaged the property and held a roundtable discussion with law enforcement and local officials.
There, he called the riots ‘domestic terrorists’ and suggested that there is a systemic problem between law enforcement and the black community in America, with white police officers refusing to believe that armed Nidemens shoot black people or are ‘bad apples’.
“The majority of police officers are honorable, courageous and dedicated public servants,” Trump said.
‘They are incredible, yet many politicians ignore their sacrifices and ignore African-American, Hispanic-American victims,’ the president said, referring to victims of crimes of color, not unarmed and firing officers who have inspired. Weeks of Black Live Matter protests.
When asked specifically about the shooting of Blake, Trump replied, ‘I feel horrible for anyone who goes through it.’ He added that it is a ‘complex subject’.
“You have suffocating people,” Trump explained, referring to police officers.
‘And if they make the wrong decision one way or the other, they’re either dead or they’re in big trouble,’ Trump continued. And people have to understand that. They sometimes suffocate. And that is a very difficult situation. ‘
The president suggested that the police involved in the shooting and killing of unarmed black people were part of some ‘bad apples’.
Trump reaffirmed a reporter’s question about whether he believes systemic racism exists, a key theme of the Black Lives Matter movement.
Trump said, ‘You’re just going back to the opposite subject. ‘We should talk about the kind of violence we’ve seen in Portland and here and elsewhere, it’s tremendous violence.’
Trump said, ‘This is all this.
He ridiculed the idea that most Black Lives Matter protests have been peaceful, and he pointed to the drowning he just saw.
“I’ve been hearing about peaceful protests … and then I’m coming to an area like this and this city is on fire,” Trump said. ‘Then and this is not a peaceful protest,’ he later added.
State and local officials told Trump not to come to Kenosha if his appearance was more confrontational – but Wisconsin is a major swing state in the November presidential election.
