Trump is the Law and Order President (Trump Week)
He Has Drifted Away From The Constitution. The host for this episode is Tim Apicella. The guests for this episode are Cynthia Sinclair and Stephanie Dalton.
Attorney William Barr ordered hundreds of peaceful protester in front of the White House cleared out with the help of tear gas, pepper pellets, mounted police and the National Guard.
Trump’s words that protesters were “Thugs” set the stage as to how the protesters would be treated. Trump’s speech in the Rose Garden declared himself as the law and order president, copying a political maneuver from President Nixon.
This statement gave rise to the idea that the president could order in the military to prevent any violence seen in the streets in multiple cities, with or without permission from the governors of that state. In this case he and Attorney General Barr used the National Guard to clear out protesters in from of St. Johns Church for Trump’s bible photo op.
Given that the military is not to be used to address protests in the street, four former chairman of the Joint Chief of Staff have called the president out on his call to action.
