(205,161 posts)I don't think that Joe - or any of us - could say in public what we really thought of Trump's ridiculous and hateful statement - though for public consumption, "despicable" was a excellent choice of words.

(63,221 posts)How dare he dishonor the memory of a dead man by using his name to tout his faux accomplishments. It is beyond sickening. Anyone who wasn't disgusted by that has something seriously wrong with them.
I feel so sorry for George Floyd's family. I can't imagine their outrage in having their loved one's name used in such a cheap, sickening political stunt. It is unforgivable.

(205,161 posts)To have suffered such an unnecessary and devastating loss has to be overwhelming, but to hear the likes of Trump dismiss it in such a way on a national forum is truly unspeakable. The word "despicable" is appropriate.

Donald J. Trump should be very very very worried.
