On this episode of the Sup, Amanda and Alise start the show with a conversation about how the president chose to address this crisis yesterday, including a conference call where he told state leaders to do whatever it takes to “dominate” protesters. They discuss Trump’s first public statement where he spewed nonsense on the need for “law and order” and threatened to send in the US military to violently disperse “mobs” across the country. Next, they react to his photo op at a DC church and how, shortly after, the bishop of that church denounced the president’s actions. Plus, they talk about groups of armed vigilantes instigating tense standoffs with peaceful protesters. Finally, they close the show with details about two independent autopsy reports that both deemed George Floyd’s death a homicide.
