Representative Maxine Waters spoke to FOX 11 on Friday, right after the arrest of former Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin for the death of George Floyd. As expected, she criticized the response of President Donald Trump to the incident.

“The president had some kind of press conference, where he said all the wrong things. But we know who he is now and all we want to tell him is stay out of our way, because we’re going to get justice. We’re sick and tired of our people getting killed. It’s too many of them dying needlessly. We just want him to get out of the way and leave us alone,” the old politician said. But the President’s reaction to the incident could not have been any better. On Friday, he revealed that he was able to talk to George Floyd’s family and that they were still grieving. He also called them “terrific people.” “I just expressed my sorrow. That was a horrible thing to witness.” The President added that it “looked like there was no excuse for it.” He had asked the Department of Justice to expedite the investigation of what had happened.

While agreeing that Floyd’s death at the hands of police officers was unjust, the President condemned the rioting that is happening in the name of protests. While protesters who flooded the streets of Minneapolis initially called for the arrest of the police officers involved in the incident, it soon descended into rioting and looting. Fires were started all throughout the city as small businesses and homes were torched and looted.

Leftists have come out defending the rioters and the looters saying that anyone saying anything against them is against giving George Floyd justice. But conservatives have condemned the killing and are just as outraged over the police brutality.
