Minnesota governor says Trump's Minneapolis tweets are 'just not helpful'

President Trump isn't helping the situation in Minnesota with his tweets, the state's governor says. Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) spoke in a news conference on Friday amid the ongoing protests in Minneapolis over the death of George Floyd, a black man who died Monday after a white police officer kneeled on his neck for several minutes.

"It's just not helpful," Walz said when asked for his reaction to Trump's tweets.
