It appears Donald Trump has zero interest in addressing the controversial ICE shootings. Rather than discuss the actions of those agents in the high-profile death of Renee Nicole Good, among others, Trump has other things on his mind. That caught the attention of many online with one person on X alleging that “He can’t even stay on topic.” They go on to say that Donald stands for nothing and nobody.
In an interview on Wednesday, Donald said that he hates talking about ICE while seemingly expressing disgust that his administration is getting such bad publicity for two deaths. Alex Pretti was shot and killed by agents as well in St. Paul. Instead, the President wondered why no one is talking about all the murderers taken out of the US.
Donald Trump didn’t want to talk about ICE with NBC News
Deflecting attention seemed to be the President’s tactic when pressed about ICE this week. In an exclusive interview with NBC News, Donald said, “I hate even talking about ICE. 2 people out of tens of thousands, and you get bad publicity.” Journalist Tom Llamas was quick to tell Trump that it was two Americans who were killed.
Donald didn’t answer that but instead gave a bizarre response: “We’ve been very tough on the waters.” That seems to address US military strikes that are supposedly knocking out drug boats.
Many public figures have voiced their displeasure with that immigration patrol agency. Jeopardy! host Ken Jennings said that he’d like to see the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) disbanded along with ICE. He says that would bring him great satisfaction.
There have been protests in St. Paul following the controversial killings. Notable journalist Don Lemon was arrested last week after speaking out against the government’s actions on that matter.
TELL US – DO YOU THINK THE PRESIDENT IS TRYING TO DEFLECT ATTENTION AWAY FROM THE ICE SHOOTINGS?
