BobbyLongNews he did it!

No he was paying respect to the church

Absolutely shocked at the events this evening. Trump what's he going to do next, run peaceful protesters over with tanks. The man is evil and the people around him propping up what seems to be a dictatorship are no better. Sickening

Sounds like more media hype.

RENT!

' Accused' good god call it out he set the police and army on American citizens without provocation just for a photo op. He's thretened martial law if he doesn't get his own way that people put up and shut up 🤬

He did it because he didn’t like people laughing about the fact that he was tweeting from a bunker.

Lies Lies Lies wakeupUK TheGreatAwakeningWorldwide

We need a healer President.

If true this is sick! By all means tear gas those idiots behaving violently and/or looting, but leave peaceful protesters the f**k alone! Some people *are* showing respect for George Floyd, and must be allowed to peacefully do so.

What’s this “accused” BS? It happened. Why can’t you say so?

Accused? We all saw it live on TV

Trump is the American up and coming Slobovan Milosevic.

It was live on CNN.

Not accused. Had....

A prop.

Accused? It was on live TV. Jesus wept.

Stop already

Because it is TRUE!

One of the most powerful, moving displays by any world leader in the 21st century God bless Donald Trump 🙏🇬🇧🇺🇲

It’s law and order time. Enough of this nonsense

You mean - Trump tear-gassed peaceful protesters 'for a photo-op' at nearby church

I can see the oil painting now.

Wait till he’s craving a burger.

Sod off

More than an accusation guys. We Americans watched it unfold live on television. IT HAPPENED!
