President Trump on Saturday hit out at vandals who have been tearing down statues of Confederate leaders and historical figures who once owned slaves amid protests triggered by the police-involved death of George Floyd.

‘The unhinged left-wing mob is trying to vandalize our history, desecrate our monuments – our beautiful monuments – tear down our statues and punish, cancel and persecute anyone who does not conform to their demands for absolute and total control.
We’re not conforming,’ Trump told cheering supporters in Tulsa.

The president made the comments a day after anti-racism protesters ripped down statues of Ulysses S. Grant and Francis Scott Key in San Francisco.

Also on Saturday, SWAT team officers arrested an armed man seen suspiciously recording people with his cell phone while on the roof of a building overlooking a statue of Robert E. Lee in Virginia.

In San Francisco’s Golden Gate Park along the Pacific Ocean, protesters sprayed red paint and wrote ‘slave owner’ on pedestals before using ropes to bring down the statues and drag them down grassy slopes amid cheers and applause.
