Trump Tear-gasses Protestors for Photo Op in Front of Episcopal Church

June 02, 2020 By: El Jefe Category: Trump's Meltdown

As we talked about earlier, Trump posed with an unread Bible in front of St. John’s Chapel this evening.  He did that after directing DC police and military to gas peaceful protestors so he could pose for the cameras.

Fuck you, Don.

  1. Why isn’t anyone asking about that $20 dollar bill?
    Was he really trying to pass it or did he not know it was counterfeit? Was it counterfeit? Whatever, it is so horrify a murder that we have to watch over and over and over.

  2. And without the knowledge, much less the permission, of the priest. You go, Bunker Boy.

  3. Trump also brought in seven truckloads of national guard troops, and plenty of police so he could get a photo op as he returned from the church, walking between two lengthy lines of law enforcement officers. Fox News can then show Trump’s tough on protestors (and use their viewers short term memory loss to advantage, and erase that unfortunate cowering in the basement incident last night from their minds)

  4. That’s him showing Governors and mayors how to dominate. Banana republic style. Or China.

  5. He probably has wet dreams about Tiananmen Square.

    So now we see what Drumpf’s Make America Great promise has
    become. America is no longer a democracy, it has become what
    Bone Spurs always wanted: an autocracy under martial law.
    As if the deaths of 100,000 Americans to COVID-19 and due to
    Trump’s refusal to do his job were not enough, he’s using the military against US citizens peacefully protesting police brutality.

    Why did the chicken cross the road?

    To pose for a blasphemous photo op at St. John’s Episcopal Church

  8. And he tossed the bible into a trash can when he left.

    I really have no idea if that’s true or not but it sure seems fitting, and if he gets to spout any damn lie he wants to then I guess I can too.

  9. To me it looks like nothing more than the pathetic stunt of a 4th-5th grader giving a book report on a book he’s never read. As if holding up the book in front of the class is the same as having read and understood it.

    I sat and watched while they pushed peaceful protesters out of the area and then 45 walked across to the church he has actually only once- they day of his inauguration and posed with a book he has never read (remember “2 Corinthians’?). Our country is in peril and my heart bleeds for how far we have fallen. This – this is what happens when people vote for a reality tv personality (he was never a star) and other people just don’t vote!!

    #BunkerBoy has certainly learned how to weaponize racism for his own benefit. If the country has to burn for him to “win,” that’s just too damn bad.

  12. He’s his own worst enemy. He knows he’s done for. Hence, changing his legal home address from New York to Florida, hoping for shileding from the Republican governor. It doesn’t work that way and he just can’t get it.

    Scumbag Don’s core competence is playing the media. Gotta hand it to him – cowering in his bunker with the lights off disappeared just like that.

    And a tip of the hat to that New York City newspaper in Pravda Square. Well played.

    14
  14. What will be the tipping point?

    How much must we endure before he is gone?

    VOTE DEMOCRATIC!

    15
  15. The Bishop was livid and we are furious at the debasement of a beloved historic church.

    Are we sure that book he’s holding was a bible, and not just his copy of Mein Kampf?

    WaPo reports his majesty had a long talk with Vlad again this weekend. Getting a few more pointers, I guess!

  18. He knows his biggest remaining support are the pathetically gullible Evangelicals. Folks out there in Oklahoma will be moved to tears by his stunt. They think God put hi there; he is using them like an old rag

    More like toilet paper. But they haven’t figured that out yet.

  20. El Lagarto @17:
    Good point. They’re probably interchangeable, with a few passages bookmarked and highlighted, just in case f**king trump drops one or the other and it falls open to certain pages.
    The Strong Man is Mightiest Alone, or the Sermon on the Mount.
    Same difference.

  21. that was really a copy of moby dick….. its time to impeach!!!!

    If he’d or his Covidiot followers had ever heard of/ read the Sermon on the Mount, George Floyd , Eric Garner, and so many others, would still be alive and our democracy would not be in ashes.
