President Donald Trump countered the media’s phony victimization narrative in an interview with CBS News by pointing out that more white people are killed every year by police than black people.
CBS’s Catherine Herridge on Tuesday asked Trump the ridiculous question: “Why are African Americans still dying at the hands of law enforcement in this country?”
Trump responded saying: “And so are white people. So are white people. What a terrible question to ask. So are white people. More white people, by the way. More white people.”
