I have zero idea when the presser will derail, but it will be derailed, as President Dick ad-lib’s his prepared remarks, and as the President Moron takes questions from the media.
Here are some likely questions to be asked.
As you now are aware the peaceful protests in Minneapolis have turned into riots escalating over night. One escalation caught on tape was the arrest of Omar Jimenez, CNN reporter, during his live broadcast.

In the course of clearing the streets and restoring order at Lake Street and Snelling Avenue, four people were arrested by State Patrol troopers, including three members of a CNN crew. The three were released once they were confirmed to be members of the media.
