President Donald Trump talks with John Rode of Rode’s Camera Shop as he speaks with business owners during a tour of an area damaged. Trump never mentioned Blake's name nor spoke with his family, brushing past the shooting and calling attention instead to the street violence that he blamed on liberal politicians. He expressed more empathy for police officers, saying that they have a "tough job" and that occasionally some simply "choke" when put under "tremendous pressure" in carrying out their duties.
