Trump tells Ingraham some officers 'choke' during shootings, saying 'They miss a 3-foot putt'

While discussing the shooting of Jacob Blake with Fox News ahead of his visit to Kenosha, Wisconsin, President Donald Trump said some police officers who shoot unarmed suspects "choke," as if missing a 3-foot putt in golf, a comment that drew social media criticism and mockery.

Blake, a Black man, was shot seven times in the back by an officer as he tried to enter a vehicle in an incident caught on video. The shooting sparked a new wave of protests around the country against police brutality and racial discrimination.

While discussing the situation in Kenosha during a White House news briefing on Monday, Trump said sometimes an officer "makes a mistake" or "chokes" under pressure.
