Former President Donald Trump wanted to "shoot" demonstrators protesting the May 2020 police killing of George Floyd, according to a forthcoming book written by former Secretary of Defense Mark Esper.

In June 2020, Trump became increasingly frustrated with the fury ignited by the death of Floyd while in custody of the Minneapolis police, Esper wrote in the book, "A Sacred Oath: Memoirs of a Secretary of Defense During Extraordinary Times," which is slated for release on May 10.

Esper should be shot. At dawn, tomorrow, hopefully.
His stint at DOD hastened the downgrading of our Military.
Thanks, Mark Esper, you traitor!

Raise your hand if you’ve felt the same way.

Maybe Trump suggested shooting rioters. Didn’t give the order though. According to the media, Ashli Babbett was killed and they don’t care.

Stops rioting and looting every time it’s tried. See Kent State.


Just so you know, the Kent State shootings caused strikes, protests and riots on campuses across the country. 450 schools were closed down due to student strikes. A mob of 100,000 protested and rioted in DC; Nixon bugged out to Camp David.

Technically correct long as one’s mindful of regime changes occurring from such tactics. I too remember it well, my HS closed.
