    Just when you think Trump can't go any lower, he manages to prove you wrong. His claim that George Floyd will "hopefully be looking down and thinking what a great day it is because unemployment has fallen" just beggars belief and makes you wonder about Trump's mental state.
    On the plus side, at last Joe Biden has said something worthwhile by replying "George Floyd's last words, 'I can't breathe, I can't breathe,' have echoed all across this nation...For the president to try to put any other words in the mouth of George Floyd I frankly think is despicable."

    Looks like the whole thing has now turned into a "look how much of an 'educated' non-racist I now am" competition. If this incident had been framed as those in power kneeling on the necks of the rest of us (rather than it being all about skin colour again), we might actually begin to make some progress. Change the drug laws, change the gun laws, put an end to homelessness etc. but all we're going to get is British comedians apologizing for taking the pee out of black celebrities on some *** tv show made over 20 years ago and footballers displaying slogans on t-shirts after they score, so they can feel they are making a difference whilst in reality, nothing changes. It's pathetic.

    Trump's speech was cringeworthy beyond belief.
