President Donald Trump said Monday he will discuss ideas for revamping police tactics in response to protests over the killing of George Floyd, even as he criticized Democrats for activists’ calls to defund the police.
Neither Trump nor anyone in his administration proposed specific changes to police behavior on Monday and the White House rejected a central provision of a sweeping police-reform bill introduced by congressional Democrats.
