WATCH: Democrats Say Trump Responsible for Violence in Democrat-Run Cities

Multiple Democrats on Sunday said President Donald Trump was responsible for inciting violence in Democrat-run cities.

Biden deputy campaign manager Kate Bedingfield said Trump has "been trying to incite violence this entire summer."

"He has at every opportunity tried to fan the flames here and that is the reason we're living in Donald Trump's America," Bedingfield said on Fox News Sunday.

Looting and violent protests have plagued major American cities in recent months following the killing of George Floyd. In response, Trump has repeatedly called for "law and order" and offered federal support to cities that are struggling with riots. Some local Democratic leaders, however, have refused federal assistance—Portland mayor Ted Wheeler, whose city has faced violent protests for more than three months, turned down Trump's offer of federal support on Friday. The mayor previously said that he plans to let the violence "burn itself out."
