George Floyd's family spoke to both U.S. President Donald Trump and former vice-president Joe Biden this week following Floyd's death in Minneapolis, Minn.
"He didn't give me an opportunity to even speak," Floyd said. "It was hard. I was trying to talk to him, but he just kept, like, pushing me off, like 'I don't want to hear what you're talking about.' "I asked vice-president Biden -- I never had to beg a man before -- but I asked him, could he please, please get justice for my brother," Floyd said.
Yeah ok liberal
😂😂😂
Typical Trump wanting to hear himself talk, he really isn't the least bit sincere. Just so he can tell the media ' I did call the family to express my condolences'
In other news the media in Canada does not give Trudeau tough questions or force him to answer questions direct.
Lying Democrate
Awww is exhibiting level 8 tds today. What’s the matter, some of your peers in the us media are antifa?
Not sure if you noticed, he’s kinda busy.
He should of spoken :(
Fake news CTV!
Ahhh ctv. Shouldn't you be reporting the outrage of protesters ignoring social distancing measures and calling them idiots?
So what is the president suppose to call the families of ever murder victim in America.he’d been on the phone 24/7. There was a murder the murderer is in custody and awaiting trial ! So move on
Well, here is the problem, MSNBC's Al Sharpton. George's brother, Philonise Floyd is most likely experiencing the stages of grief and is now angry about his brother's death. Trump called to express the nation's deepest condolences and most heartfelt sympathies.
If he was Chinese or Russian; would he even get a call from the president of his country? 🤔
Please keep Trump away from any communication device.
I’ll share Trumps sentiment ....
Why is this classed as news?
So another words CTV and CNN asked him to say it because you know how the game is
I hope he knows the conversation was likely recorded and it can be proven that he’s lying if he is
Fakenews
Politicians are despicable people. Lets not forget Trudeau's back face mockery JustinTrudeau
I’m not surprised by that. A true leader is open to dialogue. A weak leader isn’t.
Malik Obama, ' i'm voting for Trump'
Just a check mark for Trump. He doesn't actually care. His Twitter feed is all the evidence you need.
Sometimes the listening is more important than speaking.
Trump is nothing but trash
It was for PR only and I’m sorry he got ropped in.
Putting another log on the fire 😡
LIAR !!
So ?
Not surprising
His family will be getting a multi-million dollar settlement for his death.
A lot of fake ass accounts in the responses, 3 followers and suddenly politically charged... hmmmm Report em all
When The President of the United States phones you. You don't complain. THIS IS GARBAGE
Canada's MSM Fanning the Flames of Division and Hate. while CanadianPM has been cowardofthecottage for 90 days with no questionns asked. DefundCTV
If he did n’t do something illegal, how could he be crushed in the neck?
Heres a white guy same exact situation as George Floyd.. Dies just like George Floyd.. But in this POLICE GO FREE... No riots. Not burning down innocent community small businesses and the media doesn't give a sh!t because they want their race war.
CTVNationalNews What is your point CTVNationalNews ? Why are you encouraging division? Shame on you!
Another ctv story trying to promote racism
Compassion and Empathy. His brothers death is being played out all over the world on video.
Trump does not care about this death, only about using this opportunity to ensure votes for himself.
Conservatism will perpetuate chaos in America.
Doubt it.
He got a call from President of the United States. Most people would say thank you.
Al Sharpton called...wanted a donation
Who cares. You're lucky you got a phone call at all
What do you expect from a narcissist.
I’d be surprised if Trump was actually compassionate.
Of course he didnt.
Don't be surprise
He's lucky Trump even called him. The guy should stop making the death of his brother political.
Hey ccpnews , any word on ppl robbing stores and almost murdering in his brothers name?
Well, that isnt racism, thats Donald Trump.......
Bullshit!
Not surprised. The POTUS likes to hear himself speak.
CTV you outta be ashamed of yourselves. You are not news. You are left wing activists disguised as journalists. You are the enemy of the people. EnemyOfThePeople
Ctv promotes violence
It's all about Trump, you and your brother are just another avenue for him to spread his bs
I don’t believe him.
After 3 years of Trump being President, and seeing stories like this every 20 minutes, I'm still not sure. Does CTV hate Trump?
Um, look in the mirror you ain’t his favorite flavor.
Did he also talk to: Democrat Mayor Democrat Governor? Or perhaps the Democrat Senator? I’m sure Mr Floyd would like to ask her a few questions.
Does he think President has time to listen to him? President Trump has to think about how to destroy Chinese virus? Finally kick out WHO and next steps to destroy China! This man should call Sleepy Joe, Crazy Hiliary and Nonsense Barrack to complaint! Stop disturb Trump.
Because he doesn’t care
My 2nd niece’s cousin, her friends uncle’s Dad heard from her Dad’s neighbor Dog Barked at the interview, barking no no no, to his mother’s sister.
I didn’t realize trump even had to talk to him, people are killed everyday with out a phone call from the president. But nothing is ever good enough for victim culture
Sounds about right!
Trump only made that call because he had to. Purely PR & no, he doesn't care. All he cares about us his polling numbers.
So disrespectful, but it’s trump so what can you expect
A PR stunt for The Donald 😡
Not right to kill a guy for fake $20 dollar bill which ended up being real b/c put in machine backwards but did see whole video of Floyd resisting arrest while in cruiser and getting out fighting b4 being put down in knee to neck choke hold.
I'm new here. Let's follow each other🥺
Sir, you expected anything different. Sorry for your loss
Not surprising
ctv cnn where is the recording of these phone calls? I sure as hell would be recording a call from the president?! Let’s hear how terrible trump was. Hear say doesn’t help his followers, they will say it’s fake! Start reporting with evidence to back things up for once?
From CNN omg You just now prove that you guys were all in this to take out a man that the people elect
Trump is a horrible human. What a liar Trump is!! Despicable! 😡
Oh CTV! You’re too incompetent as editorialists to be distracted just long enough to see that a point of view that doesn’t involve President Trump actually exists. Too bad you trust a leftist broadcaster so horrible that their ratings are being demolished by the Food Network!
Pathetic leftist CTV paroting another anti Trump piece from Fake News CNN. Canadians need more than another version of CBC. Unfortunately the Liberal hacks at CTV don’t care about balanced journalism.
Such lies. The whole thing is staged. MSMIsTheEnemyOfThePeople
What is that tweet supposed to say? I talked but didn't speak
CTVNationalNews How surprising...Don did all the talking. Then the man had to listen to an arrogant POTUS with the intellect of a 12 year old discuss his brother's murder by a cop.
The media is the enemy of the people.
Ok so maybe excessive force was used but the guy had done something wrong enough to be arrested for in the first place and was resisting arrest. Oh wait, so black people do no wrong but white people all do wrong? Now let’s talk racism! OR ....we could all grow the hell up!!!!
Doubt it
So that would be talked at by Trump. Talking to the President does imply you actually got to speak.
YourMorning 💔
What, you didn't expect to speak did you. It's all about him, he only called because that's what a good President would do, but he's a self-center person who only thinks of himself. That's why you didn't get the chance to speak, vote him out in November.
It’s All About Him!! ... He wants Everyone to know He Made ‘The Call’! Compassion .. None!
Because he’s a brutal human
Fakenews
You are a sellout, Trump is the last person in the universe you want to call.
You should be reporting on the rioters destroying cities in the US, but instead, you guys keep gaslighting. I wonder why CTV is pushing this narrative? CTV is an enemy of the people
Im surprised he even let you in the same room as him, this is trumps normal practice of racism,
Because he really does not care
= FakeNews
Trump is void of empathy he was doing something that he has no idea how to do. And for the people who are saying that the brother is making it up he was on Camera saying that Trump wouldn’t let him speak that’s nothing surprising.
That's beauces he doesn't care what u have to say, he just made sure the everyone knows he called. He's a prick out of control
You guys are part of the problem !! Stop please !!
That’s just time management for 🍊. He knew he wasn’t going to listen to what Floyd’s brother said anyways.
Definition of irony. Telling people you spoke to the president then telling them the president didn’t let you speak 😂😂😂
Why am I not surprised?
Malik Obama, .....I’m Voting Trump
why did you include William Barr’s quote in this video. There are many witnesses saying a lot of the vandalism and violence is also being instigated by white nationalists to stir the pot.
From CNN..................enough said
Try real Canadian news.
So you had the opportunity to have realDonaldTrump speak AT you. JusticeForGeorgeFloyd this just proves how little respect he holds for Americans.
He spoke with Biden too but Biden doesn't remember.
Not what he said on Fox news! You are a trash magazine, not a news outlet!
Leave it to media to inject a flavor of hate to every story
Picking up stories from your southern affiliate CNN? I will take a pass on your version of the truth.
Whatever man
Meanwhile in Canada brazen daytime shootings is ignored by PMJT and progressives. Those lives don't matter as they dont meet their divisive politics agenda.
Personal opinion Trump doesn't care. He could not care less. Arrogance is bliss....
He’s calling for the death penalty for 4 cops. His brother died resisting arrest. Sad but true.
And?
