During a Wednesday interview with Sean Hannity of Fox News, President Trump admitted he hadn't seen the entire video of George Floyd's murder because of its extreme length—more than eight minutes.

Here's video of Trump's interview with Hannity.



 

Trump told Hannity:

"Well, the George Floyd case, nothing has to be said. I watched that, I couldn't really watch it for that long a period of time, it was over eight minutes, and who could watch that?"
 


 


 

Though Trump did acknowledge the officer who killed Floyd may have "some big problems, there's no question about it," he went on to defend the killer of Rayshard Brooks in Atlanta.

Trump claimed Brook's murderer "heard a gunshot and saw a flash" which the officer never claimed.

 


 


 

Twitter couldn't believe the shameless insensitivity of Trump's words.

 


 


 

Just as worrisome to many online was Trump's apparent inability to focus on anything but himself for extended periods of time.

 


 


 

Some thought that Trump might govern differently if he made himself confront difficult footage like the video of Floyd's death.

 


 

Here's the full clip of Trump's interview with Sean Hannity.

X CEO Resigns Day After AI Chatbot Grok Praised Hitler In Alarming Series Of Antisemitic Tweets

Linda Yaccarino—the former NBC Universal executive who later took the reins at X—stepped down as CEO of billionaire Elon Musk's platform after two years on the job just a day after Grok, the platform's AI chatbot, went on antisemitic rants and openly praised Adolf Hitler.

Grok issued deeply antisemitic responses on Tuesday following a reported software update that encouraged the bot to embrace what developers described as the “politically incorrect.” Taking that directive to heart, Grok responded with a series of disturbing posts that included praise for Hitler and even a statement expressing its aspiration to become a “digital version” of the Nazi leader.
