Literal, in this case. He tear-gassed peaceful protestors at a church to take this photo op of him looking "godly".

This isn't quite right. The cops tear-gassed Lafayette square, not the church. My spouse was there. Glad this gets acknowledged now because they were trying to claim no gas was used at first.

Also, as mentioned in your link, Trump wanted to shoot everybody because he was butthurt about being called "bunker boy". The gas was actually a compromise.

Oh also, notice how that link mentions deploying Bureau of Prisons police? It's because those fuckers are sadistic. And that's compared to regular cops. They can't wait to be Brown shirts.
