Trump is building his image library for the campaign. Strong man. “Defender of the law." "Defender of the faith.” Demagogue.

I almost can’t believe what I’m seeing. POTUS just walked out the front door of the White House and into Lafayette Square - the epicenter of the DC protests - to visit historic St. John’s Church, which was set on fire last night.

Today Texas had the fewest #COVID19 fatalities since March 30th.
We also had the fewest Texans testing positive for COVID in the past 6 weeks.
And, we have the 2nd most recoveries from COVID in America.

Portland: A man tried to help the man carrying a US flag who was getting beaten on the ground at yesterday’s antifa/BLM riot. They chased him away and kicked him in the face when he was unconscious on the ground: #Antifa #BlackLivesMatter

The rioters aren’t listening, they have no respect, and they aren’t slowing down on their own. These are criminals and many are violent.

National Guard, law enforcement, Mayors, community leaders, and others need to shut this all down right now.

Strong words by @realDonaldTrump to fill the breach of Mayors/Govs who need to do more to restore order.

Peaceful protests can be beautiful & profoundly American & are constitutionally protected.

Rioting is another story. Looting, arson, physical violence, etc. must end NOW!

I look forward to every "fact checker" in the media giving @JoeBiden 4 big Pinocchios for this whopper of a lie that he called for a nationwide lockdown in January.

Joe Biden just lied to a church full of black community leaders about 'his' coronavirus recommendations in January. Says 45-60 thousand people would be alive today if President Trump listened to him.

Joe Biden is vowing to address institutional racism in his first 100 days in office if he’s elected, as he seeks to elevate his voice in the exploding national debate over racism and police brutality.

The President of the United States @realDonaldTrump has just walked from the White House to St John’s Church where rioters set fire last night. It’s a triumphant moment of hope over fear.

The desecration of St. John’s church by an angry mob was an act of cowardice. President Trump standing before it and holding a Bible is an act of courageous leadership. Let’s honor #GeorgeFloyd by peacefully standing up against injustice and loving one another as God loves us.

This is a flat out lie.
The President spoke at length about George Floyd, the protests, and the rioting in nationally televised remarks on Saturday.
This tweet should be deleted.

Trump gave his first televised statement on the George Floyd protests today.
Before he spoke, federal police violently broke up a peaceful protest near the White House, tear-gassing a group of ~1,000 demonstrators and then firing rubber bullets at them.

So Twitter partners with the #FakeNews media to censor @realDonaldTrump but they leave @JoeBiden & Communist Chinese propaganda alone.
We always knew Silicon Valley would pull out all the stops to fight Trump.

Did the highlighted actually happen ?

AIUI a peaceful protest was violently dispersed. The pastor of the church was opposed both to that action and President Trump's visit.
 
Did the highlighted actually happen ?
It apparently happened the previous night, or maybe the night before.

ETA: The Guardian says

The unprovoked action cleared the way for Trump to cross the street and visit St John’s church, which since 1816 has been the “Church of the Presidents”, and where a fire burned in the basement amid unrest on Sunday night.
