One might even say, like a dominant boss. President Trump walked from the White House across Lafayette Park to St John’s Church which was set on fire by protesters Sunday night. Trump held up a Bible in front of the church. He was joined by daughter Ivanka and several other administration officials. As one can imagine, some in the media were not happy.
I almost can’t believe what I’m seeing. POTUS just walked out the front door of the White House and into Lafayette Square – the epicenter of the DC protests – to visit historic St. John’s Church, which was set on fire last night. pic.twitter.com/XueoF2RC6z

This is strength.
President Trump is NOT hiding in his basement, like Joe Biden.
Don’t let the mainstream media lie to you.

Taking heed of Trump’s urging for police to dominate rioting protesters, police used force to push back angry protesters who refused to disperse to make way for the President.
