A few days ago cowardly criminal Fuhrer Trump had a case of buk-buk-buk-buk-bone spurs and hid in the White House bunker for fear that they might hurt him.\u00a0 He had expected to cover it up, but someone leaked it to the press, and before he knew it, people all over the country were laughing at him.\u00a0 The last times he felt that humiliated is when the existence of the pee-pee tape, became public and when people learned that Stormy spanked him.\u00a0 He needed to put on a show to appear heroic.<\/span><\/p>\n

After a weekend of protests that led all the way to his own front yard and forced him to briefly retreat to a bunker beneath the White House, President Trump arrived in the Oval Office on Monday agitated over the television images, annoyed that anyone would think he was hiding and eager for action.<\/p>\n

He wanted to send the military into American ci<\/strong>ties, an idea that provoked a heated, voices-raised fight among his advisers. But by the end of the day, urged on by his daughter Ivanka Trump, he came up with a more personal way of demonstrating toughness \u2014 he would march across Lafayette Square to a church damaged by fire the night before.<\/p>\n

The only problem: A plan developed earlier in the day to expand the security perimeter around the White House had not been carried out. When Attorney General William P. Barr strode out of the White House gates for a personal inspection early Monday evening, he discovered that protesters were still on the northern edge of the square. For the president to make it to St. John\u2019s Church, they would have to be cleared out. Mr. Barr gave the order to disperse them.<\/p>\n

What ensued was a burst of violence unlike any seen in the shadow of the White House in generations. As he prepared for his surprise march to the church, Mr. Trump first went before cameras in the Rose Garden to declare himself \u201cyour president of law and order\u201d but also \u201can ally of all peaceful protesters,\u201d even as peaceful protesters just a block away and clergy members on the church patio were routed by smoke and flash grenades and some form of chemical spray deployed by shield-bearing riot officers and mounted police<\/strong>\u2026\u00a0 [emphasis added<\/em>]<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
