Trump mobilizing forces this morning to find those who threw paint on a statue in Manhattan.

Trump is tougher on protesters throwing paint on a statue than he is on Russians who are conspiring to murder our soldiers.

We are tracking down the two Anarchists who threw paint on the magnificent George Washington Statue in Manhattan. We have them on tape. They will be prosecuted and face 10 years in Prison based on the Monuments and Statues Act. Turn yourselves in now!

Over 130,000 dead from COVID-19, some 40 million people unemployed, economy in shambles, our troops have Russian bounties on their heads, and this buffoon is worried about a couple of dudes who threw some paint. Reality is stranger than fiction.

As ridiculous as that sounds, that is what it would take for Trump to be engaged in force protection. Turn yourself in now.

By the way, this is a great way to have statues trashed all over the country.
