Yeah, I'm kind of wondering if perhaps this was a great time to give Trump his millions of people in WDC in his "honor" thing. Remember how sparse his inauguration crowds were?
I might consider a driving trip to WDC to give Trump a nice big peaceful protesting crowd. I'm sure he would be proud of the numbers of people who flooded WDC just for him.

Trumpty Dumpty promised a wall. Trumpty Dumpty had a great fall. All of Trump's minions and all of Trump's men... Will not get Trumpty elected again. (I'm really hoping to change that "will" to a "could" come November 3rd.)

Barr is on Face the Nation claiming the protesters last Monday in Lafayette park were being 'violent' and throwing things (despite eye witnesses who said they weren't).
He also claimed no tear gas was used, and no chemicals were used, claiming pepper spray is NOT an irritating chemical. (WTF) Also, you can see in the video of the event that there was smoke bombs bursting among the protesters, what was that, if not tear gas?
Not a peaceful protest because Friday/Saturday/Sunday there were some violent protestors, so therefore what happened Monday was justified. Also, what the forces were trying to do was just 'expand the perimeter' around the white house - absolutely a total coincidence that it happened right before Trump wanted to waddle over to the church for his photo op (and his Jewish daughter pulling someone else's Bible out of her designer handbag).
Barr also insisted Esper agreed that sending in the military to enforce the peace was legal for Trump to do, and something he may need to do - Face the Nation replayed Esper saying he did not think that should be done right after.
DH got so furious at Barr he had to go out and stand in the middle of the front lawn and breath deeply.

Could he huff and puff and blow that baby gate around the White House down for the good of the country? Just askin'. And your DH sounds like my DH. And mine voted for that tiny-minded, tantrum-throwing twit. Said that compared to voting for Nixon, it was by far the worst thing he'd ever done in terms of throwing away a vote and now deeply regrets it.

Mine is plotting where he will move if trump gets re- elected. He’s retired, I am not, but I really think he might move somewhere without me until 2024. Maybe your DH and mine could be roommates in whatever non-US territory they can find.

My active duty during Vietnam was in Pa. I'm not going back.
