Former President Donald Trump wanted to "shoot" demonstrators protesting the May 2020 police killing of George Floyd, according to a forthcoming book written by former Secretary of Defense Mark Esper.
In June 2020, Trump became increasingly frustrated with the fury ignited by the death of Floyd while in custody of the Minneapolis police, Esper wrote in the book, "A Sacred Oath: Memoirs of a Secretary of Defense During Extraordinary Times," which is slated for release on May 10.

Another book writer ran an alternate version of this story a few years ago. “Trump wants to shoot migrants at the southern border in he legs.” Trump said he is tough but not that tough. The press has gone crazy, fake news.

The media CAN NOT stop him as hard as they have tried Trump is genuine they do not have ONE STINKING genuine person on their side there is NOTHING they can do to stop Trump the people are with him NO MATTER WHAT!!!
Trump's Pentagon chief quashed idea to send 250,000 troops to Mexico border

WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump's defense secretary thought the idea was outrageous.
In spring 2020, Mark Esper, the Defense secretary, was alarmed to learn of an idea under discussion at a top military command and at the Department of Homeland Security to send as many as 250,000 troops — more than half the active U.S. Army, and a sixth of all American forces — to the southern border...It is not clear whether it was officials in Homeland Security or the Pentagon who concluded that a quarter of a million troops would be required....
...Around the same time that officials considered the huge deployment to the U.S. side of the border with Mexico, Trump also pressed his top aides to send forces into Mexico itself to hunt drug cartels, much like U.S. commandos have tracked and killed terrorists in Afghanistan or Pakistan, the officials said.
Trump hesitated only after aides suggested that to most of the world, military raids inside Mexico could look like the United States was committing an act of war...
What decent person didn’t want to see the demise of those commie protesters?
They should have shot a few.
They were happy enough to shoot Ashli Babbitt just for being there and supporting Trump.
I don’t disagree, but does shooting protesters sound like a good idea in the US? They tried that at Kent State. It did not work well. Anyone over 60 years old remembers that.
The 2.5 billion dollars in damages say different.
Hyperbole much?
My city isn’t in smoking ruins. A vast majority of the cities in this country are not in ruins.
You watch too much news. Get out. Look around.
Really,
We can express anger with words... because the thought crimes thugs of the democrat party are NOT in control of our country yes.
Dunno ‘bout “protestors” but if President Trump wanted to lay waste to the rioters burning and looting, I would back him up on it.
Shoot demonstrators, as was done by the jerk in the Capitol building Jan. 6, and was called for by Senator Linda Graham?
And Rittenhouse was found innocent. Need we say more?
And another book from an American traitor who publishes the accusations without proof to line his pockets.
If they were committing felonies, especially setting fires, it is within the law, that they can and should be shot. Shooting a female Air Force vet because she stuck her head through a broken window seemed all fine and dandy with the media though.
But he also said that at some point, most of the people you think you can trust, will stab you in the back. And he was right.
Trump FIRED this POS.
A SACRED OATH!, WHAT A JOKE!
RIOTERS need to be shot. PROTESTORS do not loot and burn stores or attack police and bystanders; rioters do.
