Portland attack: Trump urged to speak up over killings

US President Donald Trump is under pressure to address the killing of two men who had tried to stop a man abusing a Muslim teenager and her friend.

Mr Trump has not yet responded to the deaths of Taliesin Namkai-Meche and Ricky Best in Portland on Friday.
A reporter's tweet to Mr Trump for comment has been liked 14,000 times and another reporter's open letter has been shared 100,000 times on Facebook.
On Sunday Mr Trump accused the media of "disparaging" his social media output.
"The Fake News Media works hard at disparaging & demeaning my use of social media because they don't want America to hear the real story!" he tweeted.
Mr Namkai Meche and Mr Best were killed after they intervened when a man launched a verbal tirade against two teenagers on a train, one wearing a hijab.
A third man, Micah David-Cole Fletcher, was severely injured.
Tributes to the dead men have already been paid by other politicians, including Portland's mayor, Oregon governor Kate Brown and former presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, who described their deaths as "heartbreaking".
President Trump has tweeted since the attack about the "success" of his trip to the Middle East and Europe, plans for tax cuts and healthcare, and his criticism of the media.
On Monday he tweeted
a tribute to members of the armed forces who had been killed on active service for US Memorial Day.
