Trump to meet police, businesses in Kenosha while surveying protest damage - White House

Washington, Aug 31 (Sputnik) - US President Donald Trump plans to visit Kenosha, Wisconsin on Tuesday to meet with law enforcement officers and business owners who suffered during last week’s protests, White House spokesperson Kayleigh McEnany told reporters.
Kenosha, home to some 100,000 people, came last week as latest focal point for the Black Lives Matter movement after policemen shot and severally wounded Jacob Blake, a local African American man.
"Currently the plans are to meet with law enforcement and some business owners and to survey the damage," McEnany said when asked during a briefing if a meeting with Blake’s family is on the president’s agenda. "The President wants to visit hurting Americans. He shows up just like he showed up this weekend in Louisiana and Texas in response to hurricane Laura. So he wants to show up in the city that is hurting."
