President Trump spent Monday further fanning the flames of confrontation between protesters and police. And some Republicans are urging the president to extinguish them
Casting himself as the "law and order" president, Trump said he would use the federal government to fight back against what he deemed "domestic terrorism.” Police forces dispersed a crowd of peaceful protesters outside the White House with tear gas minutes before Washington's 7 p.m. curfew. Trump said he would dispatch thousands of “heavily-armed” soldiers to enforce the curfew.
Trump demands loyalty from Republicans and has dressed down those who have criticized his tone too sharply. So many are sticking with him or staying away from the topic altogether. “Some people love the president, some people don't. And I don't think we're ever going to resolve that,” Cornyn said. “It would be good for him to address the nation.”
