Days after a Minnesota state lawmaker was killed and another injured in a "politically motivated assassination," President Donald Trump said on Tuesday that he would not call the state's governor, eschewing a traditional presidential response to tragedies.

President Donald Trump said Tuesday that he he won’t call Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz after the targeted shootings of two state lawmakers because it would “waste time.” One of the lawmakers and her husband were killed.

In the wake of Saturday’s shootings in Minnesota, Gov. Tim Walz has heard from current American leaders (Vice President JD Vance), former American leaders (Joe Biden) and even a foreign leader (Ontario Premier Doug Ford).
