Blake Family Speaks Out After Trump Does Not Meet With Them In Kenosha - The Last Word - MSNBC



Jacob Blake Sr., father of Jacob Blake, tells Lawrence O’Donnell that he has no message for Trump because he’s only concerned about saving his son’s life, not politics, but he describes how his hour-long conversation with Biden and Harris comforted him and his family: “It was almost like l was talking to a family member.” Blake family attorney Benjamin Crump also joins.

It’s just not the time right now. They keep saying that their concern is for Jacobs recovery right now. The reporters don’t seem to get the message.

I think some day they might want to weigh-in politically, and most likely they’ll be on our side, but right now they’ve made it clear that they don’t want to take sides.
