Senate Republicans keep quiet on Trump's comments on George Floyd protests
"As we speak, I am dispatching thousands and thousands of heavily armed soldiers, military personnel and law enforcement officers to stop the rioting, looting, vandalism, assaults, and the wanton destruction of property," Trump said Monday."We will end it now."
It is unclear if McConnell was suggesting sending in the military to back up officers. A McConnell aid declined to elaborate when asked for more information about the comment. In the days since, Trump tweeted that if protesters breached the White House fence they would be greeted by"vicious dogs" and"ominous weapons."
Scott is the only black Republican serving in the U.S. Senate.
