Pres. Trump says he is mobilizing ‘heavily armed’ military to stop protests in DC | ABC News

BREAKING: Addressing a nation on edge, Pres. Trump called himself the “law and order” president, and said he is mobilizing “heavily armed” military to stop continued protests in Washington, D.C. over the death of George Floyd.

Before Pres. Trump spoke, what appeared to be gas was used to disperse peaceful protesters in Lafayette Park near St. John’s Church, which was briefly set on fire last night. Trump then walked across Pennsylvania Ave. to appear before cameras at the church, holding a Bible. abcn.ws/3drsPzV
