This video obtained by cbs news shows what appears to be the started of the confrontation between george floyd and Minneapolis Police officers.

Reporter he was a stark contrast on memorial day, President Trump without a mask. His november opponent, former vce president joe biden, wearing one.

Biden can wear mask, but he was standing outside with his wife, perfect condition, perfect weather. Theyre inside, they dont wear masks. So i thought it was very unusual that he had one on. Reporter the former Vice President hit back this afternoon. Hes a fool. Hes a fool to talk that way. I mean, every doctor in the world is saying you should wear mask when youre in a crowd.
