America is in trouble. Cities are burning. Millions have lost their jobs. 100,000 have died from a virus. Leadership has vanished from the White House. And the president hides in a bunker tweeting to his fans. pic.twitter.com/JoeUwcswZ2

The president and his family have been shaken by the size and venom of the crowds.

Trump has told advisers he worries about his safety, while both privately and publicly praising the work of the Secret Service. https://t.co/3O8TvUz4GQ

As protesters drew closer to the White House on Friday night, a tense scene played out inside the complex, as officials pulled Trump into to the underground bunker. The president & his family were rattled by their experience, according to several advisers.https://t.co/mxh3AKEHqS

On September 11th 2001, as New York & Washington were under attack, Dick Cheney was taken to the White House’s PEOC (Presidential Emergency Operations Center, the bunker deep underground).

Trump taken to WH underground bunker as cars burn and protesters smash glass outside White House. Bunker was famously used when Secret Service feared a plane was trying to crash into White House, and rushed VP Cheney to safety. @seungminkim https://t.co/HrlZuy4ZhW

"The violence instigated and carried out by Antifa and other similar groups in connection with the rioting is domestic terrorism and will be treated accordingly," AG William Barr said: https://t.co/8EUuy8Ik4a

AG Barr: it appears the violence is planned, organized, and driven by anarchic and left extremist groups, far left extremist groups using Antifa like tactics… it is a federal crime to cross state lines or to use interstate facilities to incite or participate in violent rioting pic.twitter.com/vZFz4kV9Xp

Trump and advisers calculated that he shouldn’t speak to the nation because he had nothing to say, no tangible policy or action to announce, nor did he feel an urgent motivation to try to bring people together. So he let his tweets speak for themselves. https://t.co/JjcIC8oxiD

Obvious he knows there are similar ilk in the crowd. We're being played. The Antifa meme is a cover for Trump's Nazi agitators in the crowd. Shows Barr and O'Brien are part of the conspiracy. I think the hub is the GRU. Russians admit they had people there. https://t.co/sF6Ip6oO8f

Let's be crystal clear:

1. #ANTIFA = Anti-fascist

2. Domestic terrorism is overwhelmingly carried out by the RIGHT, not the left.

— Peter Daou (@peterdaou) May 31, 2020

We will learn who is responsible for vandalism, violence & arson as arrests mount. Barr claims far left extremists are doing it but offers no evidence. It’s a sign he knows white supremacists & Russia are involved & is covering for them. This feels like a last ditch op for Trump.
