What a president should say in this moment, "We are going through a stressful and scary period in which our health, our economy, and our lives are at risk. These risks are much higher for some Americans compared to others."
"To those Americans who feel afraid at this moment know this: the color of your skin will not be your destiny or your death sentence. All Americans will be healthy again, all Americans will be back to work, rebuilding our economy."
"And, All Americans will be treated with dignity before the government and the law. There will be no more deaths at the hands of lawless police officers. There will be justice."
"Today, I've sent in the National Guard to bring the lawless to justice and my administration will fight racism, wherever it arises."

Trump won't say any of that.
