“Her parents are great people. They lost an angel,” Trump said. “They lost a person they loved more than anybody else. She was the top in her class and everything she ever did. She wanted to be a nurse and maybe would have ended up being a doctor. Her friends were there too. They said, ‘We were not as good as her.’ She was like this perfect person and a good person. Her parents are very good people. I spent time with them. I met with her sister, who’s beautiful also, inside and out. These are people that can’t believe what happened.”

Trump slammed Biden, too, for showing the Riley family “no compassion” in the wake of Laken’s murder.

“They’ve been shown no compassion from Biden other than he called out the name with the wrong name,” Trump said. “He only called it out because Marjorie Taylor Greene shamed him. It’s like he picked up the pin to try to read it and he didn’t read it very well. These are people who can’t believe what happened to them and can’t believe what he’s doing. They’ll never be the same.”
