1 Jun 2020 Jahr - Trump gassed protesters for photo-op outside a church

Beschreibung:

As Donald Trump told the nation he would protect peaceful protesters in a speech at the White House's Rose Garden on Monday, police officers roughly 100 yards to the north unloaded tear gas, rubber bullets and flash bangs to disperse peaceful protesters by Lafayette Square in Washington, DC, so the president could walk to St John's Episcopal Church for a photo op.
