Michael Bradley Slams Donald Trump: 'We Have a President Who Is Completely Empty'

Longtime U.S. men's national team captain Michael Bradley sharply criticized President Donald Trump during a conference call with reporters Thursday.

When asked about the nation's current political climate and widespread protests in the wake of the killing of George Floyd—a 46-year-old black man who was killed in Minneapolis last week after being violently apprehended by police–Bradley said Trump has provided "no leadership."

"We have a president who is completely empty. There isn't a moral bone in his body," Bradley said, via the Canadian Press.

"There's no leadership. There's no leadership from the president, there's no leadership from the Republican senators who have sat back and been totally complicit in everything he's done for the last 3 1/2 years.
