President Donald Trump criticized Washington, D. C.’s police department and called for arrests after officers stood by as the District’s only outdoor confederate statue was torn down and defiled by protesters right outside their headquarters.
Calling the actions “a disgrace to our country,” Trump blasted the Metropolitan Police Department on Twitter for their inaction as approximately 100 protesters gathered in Judiciary Square on Friday night around 11 p.m. to pull down a statue of Brigadier General Albert Pike, according to The Hill.
