Sep 4, 20200:39Now PlayingWisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul says he thinks former Vice President Joe Biden can help heal Kenosha, Wisconsin in ways that President Donald Trump's stop in the city did not.
The Democratic presidential candidate is expected to meet with the family of Jacob Blake, the Black man who was shot seven times in the back on Aug. 23 by a white police officer as authorities tried to arrest Blake. He remains hospitalized.
Before Trump's visit to the southeastern Wisconsin earlier this week, Kaul accused the president of wanting to "benefit from chaos and violence happening during this administration."
The Democrat Kaul says Biden's visit Thursday provides an opportunity to "help heal the community, to bring people together, to support people who are protesting peacefully and calling for the change they want to see." He says Trump was not interested in that when he met with law enforcement officials and business owners affected by the violence.
Trump did not meet with members of Jacob Blake's family. Trump has also not publicly condemned 17-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse, charged with fatally shooting two demonstrators last week. Trump implied that Rittenhouse only shot the men after he tripped and they attacked him, even though the first fatal shooting happened before Rittenhouse ran away and fell.
Kaul says, "When you make excuses for people who are involved in that kind of violence, whether it's vigilante violence or white supremacist violence or any other kind of violence or destruction, we need clear condemnations of that from our leaders."
