Sen. Tina Smith (D-MN) reacts to President Trump’s statement Monday that he would have “gladly” given the order to lower flags to half-staff in June when Democratic Minnesota state lawmaker Melissa Hortman was assassinated, but that Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz hadn’t asked him.
The president did not call the governor in June to offer condolences, saying he “could be nice and call, but why waste time?”
Teddy Tschann, a spokesperson for Walz, responded to Trump’s Monday remarks in a statement: “Governor Walz wishes that President Trump would be a President for all Americans.” #CNN #News
