In a striking on-air moment, President Donald Trump shared a dramatic behind-the-scenes story during an interview on FOX News, recounting a phone call he says came at the height of the BLM riots. According to Trump, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz personally called the White House and urgently asked Trump to release a public statement calling Walz “a friend,” claiming he feared backlash from Trump supporters carrying American flags. The anecdote, told with Trump’s trademark bluntness, painted a vivid picture of political panic during a chaotic period and immediately sparked strong reactions across social media and conservative circles.
