WASHINGTON - Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden and running mate Kamala Harris launched a two-pronged attack on Thursday against Donald Trump, saying the president is fuelling unrest over police brutality and racial injustice and has failed to protect Americans.
A white 17-year-old was detained on murder charges connected to the protesters' slayings, and Mr Trump announced he was sending federal forces to Kenosha to"restore law and order". "The violence we're witnessing is happening under Donald Trump. Not me," Mr Biden said, adding that Mr Trump - who has yet to publicly address Blake's shooting - is turning a blind eye to the crisis.
Ms Harris said she would"always defend" peaceful protesters but they should not be confused"with those looting and committing acts of violence." Ms Harris also went after Mr Trump for his handling of the coronavirus pandemic, saying the president showed"reckless disregard" by failing to take decisive action.
