MSNBC hosts Willie Geist and Jonathan Lemire accused Donald Trump of 'making it political' when he attended the funeral of NYPD officer Jonathan Diller.
Monday while performing a traffic stop on an illegally parked car. The suspected shooter, Guy Rivera, 34, had been arrested 21 times before the incident and is now facing murder charges.
“After meeting with Officer Diller’s family, who invited Trump to the service, Trump spoke to reporters outside describing the officer’s death as a horrible thing and calling for a return to law and order,” Geist said on.
“But of course, because he’s Donald Trump, he’s making it political,” Lemire said. “Look, his aides were very clear yesterday that they liked this split screen of President Biden being at Radio City Music Hall with two other presidents for a big-dollar glitzy fundraiser, while Donald Trump was out in Queens and then Long Island meeting with the family of a slain officer.
