One of America's last two presidents knows how to act humanely. The other is Joe Biden.
At his State of the Union address, Joe Biden tried — and failed — to 'say her name.' He botched Laken Riley's name, twice, by calling her "Lincoln Riley" (a college football coach, by the way) and then downplayed the significance of her death. He even apologized for calling the inhumane animal who bashed in Riley's head while she was jogging near the University of Georgia an "illegal."
Tonight, former President Donald Trump not only said Laken Riley's name correctly, but he gave Joe Biden a lesson on how to be humane towards a grieving family. Trump demanded justice for the 22-year-old nursing student, who was slain by a Venezuelan migrant named Jose Ibarra whom the Biden administration refused to deport.
Trump delivered a strong statement on behalf of Laken Riley in front of a Rome, Georgia campaign rally and with Riley's parents in attendance.
“Laken Riley would be alive today if Joe Biden had not willfully and maliciously eviscerated the borders of the United States and set loose thousands and thousands of dangerous criminals into our country," Trump said.
"To her family tonight, I promise you, I will demand justice for Laken," he said as the crowd applauded. "Justice for Laken," he emphatically repeated.
Donald Trump also comforted Laken Riley's family.
