(CNN) Despite protesters around the nation chanting "Black Lives Matter," President Donald Trump has yet to praise the movement or even say those words in his horrific response to the killing of George Floyd and the protests that have followed. In response, Harris, a California Democrat, tweeted to Trump, "Keep George Floyd's name out of your mouth until you can say Black Lives Matter." During the 2016 campaign,Trump repeatedly slammed Black Lives Matter. For example, in 2015 while on Fox News, Trump stated about the movement, "I think they're trouble. He then blasted Democrats for "catering" to the group and for some "apologizing because they say 'white lives matter' and 'all lives matter.'"
