President Trump is once again receiving backlash after pressing send on a tweet, this time suggesting a 75-year-old protester, who was shoved by police in Buffalo, N.Y., "could be an ANTIFA provocateur." “Buffalo protester shoved by Police could be an ANTIFA provocateur,” Trump began in a tweet on Tuesday.
He continued: “75 year old Martin Gugino was pushed away after appearing to scan police communications in order to black out the equipment. @OANN I watched, he fell harder than was pushed.
Was aiming scanner. Could be a set up?” Trump’s tweet referenced a video shared on social media of the incident, which showed officers pushing the elderly man, who then fell to the ground and started bleeding on the sidewalk.
