Having missed the chance to respond effectively to the coronavirus, Donald Trump faced another crisis in the shocking killing of black man George Floyd and the violent protests that subsequently broke out in Minneapolis. | ANALYSIS

on the grounds it was "glorifying violence" - the first time it had taken such action against a political leader.

At a White House event a few hours later, he got the tone right. "I understand the hurt, I understand the pain," he said. But within hours he was back on Twitter, promoting partisan and divisive messages such as: "In Democrat cities you can get arrested for opening a business, but not for looting one."

...Trump has no control over the judicial system, your Trump hate is exposed, again.

Keep it up 👍🏻 journalism like this will ensure he gets four more

The Mayor of Minneapolis is responsible for the criminal police officers and the handling of the riot. Blaming a 3 year President not 40+ years of poor Democratic Mayors is lazy and misleading.

The looting, rioting and burning of stores is being done with careful planning by white men (racists) wearing black. Loads of loose bricks are being left strategically in place for others to come along later and use. These bricks and rocks dont just happen to be there.

fake news 🥱

I wish the age reports what matters here in Oz. Things like economy, jobs, innovations, export/import, stats before vs now, GDP percentages of mining, renewable, construction, small business, China trade etc… But they go shit on Trump instead. Irrelevance and ignorance at best.

It is not hard to choose China or American !

This is horribly unfair,subjective,clickbait WAS thugs who hijacked the peaceful protests.DTs initial speeches also condemned this.Scomo should be taking a leaf out of his playbook4dealing with China& theCCP menace in OUR country&universities.💪

aint nice having ur country stirred into chaos right, paying for past sins perhaps...

“When the looting starts, the shooting starts”. That’s his level of involvement and contribution.

America, what a disgrace that country is. From the top to the streets.

And here come all the racists!

He’ll not manage this either. He’s totally incompetent

Pure media spin. Wasn't he one of the first leaders to ban flights from China, against WHO recommendations?

The Age .... about 7

Man the age just blame everything on trump. Minessota is a blue state, and mineapolis is a blue city, with democarat governor, democrat mayor, 2 democrat senators. Mineapolis police force do not answer to US president, they are reporting to the city mayor.

Trump must go. dumptrump

Its the State Governors that have the responsibility, Trump can do very little except provide funding if asked. Same as with ScoMo who only has 8 megalomaniac twits to deal with and Trump has 51.

Most stupid of takes

He literally condemned it and got DOJ/FBI involved. Ask the states majors and governors why they didn't send police in to stop it?

Donald is 'Making America Great Again' .. you ask China and the black Americans ..

Democrat Mayor, Democrat Governor ... but it's Trump's fault. The Age is shit.

Not long now and the Pravda on the Yarra will blame WW2 on Trump. Moonbats on steroids.

AUS journalists chortle at USA. But AUS will never achieve great things by obsessing about Trump. Meanwhile:

He was born to soil himself at every possible opportunity. He is the living embodiment of corrupt American exceptionalism.
