HuffPost
Trump was taken to the White House bunker during protests last year over the police killing of George Floyd.
According to a new book by a senior White House reporter, a furious Donald Trump told aides in May 2020 that whoever leaked information to the press about his stay in the White House bunker had committed treason and should be executed. Trump, his wife, Melania, and son Barron were taken briefly to the underground presidential bunker during unrest outside the White House in the week following the Minneapolis police killing of George Floyd, according to CNN, citing excerpts from the new book by Wall Street Journal reporter Michael Bender titled “Frankly, We Did Win This Election: The Inside Story of How Trump Lost.” The story about the bunker stay quickly made its way to the press at the time. The following week, Trump claimed he was just “inspecting” the bunker.More Related News
