(CNN)As protesters gathered outside the White House Friday night in Washington, DC, President Donald Trump was briefly taken to the underground bunker for a period of time, according to a White House official and a law enforcement source.

The President was there for a little under an hour before being brought upstairs. It's unclear if first lady Melania Trump and Barron Trump were also taken down with him.
Trump has repeatedly praised the Secret Service for its handling of the protests outside the White House Friday night in the wake of George Floyd's death last week in Minneapolis.
The New York Times first reported Trump was taken to the presidential bunker.

1. fucking drama queen...

he probably loved it...

[DENVERPOPS]

41. Yes!

It makes him feel so self important. Pissing all of us off with his unrelenting tweets, and then running and hiding behind the secret service agent's skirts...........

I have never felt more sorry for the Secret Service agents, at least the ones that aren't bigotted Trumphumpers if there are any.....
Could you imagine those poor guys being coached into "taking a bullet" for this guy? At this point, they have to be severely conflicted

[TheCowsCameHome]

2. All alone binge-watching Stormy Daniels videos, most likely.

[democrank]

3. Perhaps that's where his handlers keep the "vicious dogs"

[DesertRat]

28. and the "ominous weapons"

[Scarsdale]

47. Does McDonald's deliver?

He can't last too long without fast food, and diet coke.

[DesertRat]

53. He'll send a lackey out for hamburders

[Scarsdale]

55. That was Chris Christie's

old job, when he was stuck like glue to tRump. There is no way to demean these gop clowns, is there?

[Dopers_Greed]

4. I'm surprised he could make it back up the stairs

#MorbidObesity

[Grokenstein]

30. Well, the article says "being brought upstairs"...

...maybe they installed a freight elevator.

[milestogo]

37. ...

[Scarsdale]

48. I wonder if he has a

custom built Hover-round, with well cushioned seats, a drink holder and a tray? There is likely a ramp for him, too.

[EarlG]

5. Wtf...

“It's unclear if first lady Melania Trump and Barron Trump were also taken down with him.”

I can just picture Trump barging his way into the elevator yelling “Outta my way! Leave the woman and child!”

[sandensea]

17. That's our dear leader alright

Reminds me of a well-known anecdote about Idi Amin (the former head of state whom Trump arguably most resembles).

When the Israeli Defense Forces famously stormed the airport at Entebbe in 1976, to free the mostly Jewish passengers held hostage there, Amin was in bed (in a threesome, it was said).

When an adjutant came in to inform him of the incident, he reportedly hid in a closet - for fear that it was actually a coup in progress.

[Nevilledog]

40. Or.... He might have trampled them escaping to the bunker

[Scarsdale]

49. When asked if Maleria and

Barron should be brought to the bunker tRump asked "Who?" Then he wanted to know "Where is Ivanka, I need Ivanka with me"

[Nevilledog]

63. *snort*

[DENVERPOPS]

42. Double huge LOL

It is hard to make me laugh anymore, but EG, you did it!!!!!!!!!

Damn good thing I wasn't eating or drinking anything or my desk top screen would be supremely pissed at you right now.......

[BlueMTexpat]

43. This ...

[NCDem47]

6. Such a He-Man!

15. The yellow-bellied orange oaf

[cstanleytech]

32. Well what do you expect from Admiral Bonespurs?

[AZ8theist]

59. Sorry, it's "Cadet", not Admiral. He's too stupid for promotion.....

[cstanleytech]

64. Ahh but its self promotion which we all know he loves so much.

[AZ8theist]

68. You mean like this:

[chowder66]

7. I don't buy it. This is a political ploy to try to garner sympathy.

[George II]

8. The Fhrerbunker:

[Orrex]

9. Who's the idiot who let him out of the bunker?

[Stallion]

16. Giggle

[Bayard]

58. Okay, that earned a belly laugh!

[Orrex]

66. My wife suggested that they close the hatch and push a dresser over it.

[Harker]

10. I've long been saying that the bunker scene is nigh.

Well overdue, by now.

[Ingersollman]

51. One

straight out of "Downfall", I would assume you mean.

[Harker]

52. Yes.

He'd have to settle for Stephen Miller as Eva, and Barr for Blondi.

[47of74]

11. Yeah his hero also hid out in a bunker...

[Hiawatha Pete]

18. You beat me to it while I was searching for a meme!

[Hiawatha Pete]

12. Just like his hero

[47of74]

21. I'm working #BunkerBitch into my rotation

Of course I still like Orange Fuckopotomus more.

[Hiawatha Pete]

22. ROFL!

Love em both!

[DesertRat]

29. lol

13. to brush up on whining

with a copy of Mein Kampf

[GoneOffShore]

65. 'Ivanka, call the preacher! It's time!'

[tclambert]

14. I finally see the need to build a wall

around that bunker with Trump inside.

Nah, the Secret Service guys are too smart. Trump may not be able to figure out how to beat a wall, but the Secret Service agents would breach it in no time.

[leftieNanner]

19. Why couldn't they have just left him down there

Until January 20, 2021.

[Ligyron]

20. Should have left him down there, the wuss.

Hell, it was probably his idea.

"HELP, wimper, mewl... Protect your fearless leader! Get back up there and keep those vicious dogs out of the WH!! Defend it to the last man.

I'll be down here bravely defending ... uh, my image. oh. and when you get back up there, send down some cheeseburgers.

...and fries too".

[SeattleVet]

23. Couldn't get him to swallow the black capsule?

Maybe if they tell him it's hydroxychloroquine...

[LudwigPastorius]

24. Hope they've got a couple of pallets of Depends down there.

I'm sure Brave Donald was pissing himself.

[DesertRat]

25. No mention of Melania and Barron

Any other leader with a minor child would be talking about how this affects them. But he acts as though he doesn't exist.

[EarthFirst]

26. I don't believe it...

Nothing can be trusted from this administration.

This information was planted to the media to feed his narrative on the rioting he’s fomenting and the extreme use of force he’s advocating for.

Just more theatrics for his ego and entice the Boogaloos.

[Doodley]

27. This was his "MAGA night at the White House!"

[Skittles]

31. too bad they can't leave him there

[mwooldri]

33. Whereas Joe Biden was where exactly?

Yup, engaging with protesters.

We know who the real leader is. Problem the 45th President of the United States of America thinks he's playing one on TV - I'd prefer Keifer Sutherland as president at this point if we're to have a TV presidency.

[Lord Ludd]

34. "taken to underground bunker"

Bullshit. The Coward-in-Chief took off for the bunker himself when the first protester showed up outside the WH & immediately locked the door behind him.

[Drum]

35. Snowflake ❄️

[llmart]

36. +1

You took my post!

Such a snowflake.

[Yo_Mama_Been_Loggin]

38. The Fuehrer bunker?

[Mickju]

39. I hope he was shitting in his pants.

[BlueMTexpat]

44. Much of this thread is

DUZY-worthy!

Thanks for the chuckles!

If only someone took a photo of him huddling in the bunker!

[mahatmakanejeeves]

45. Tonight, once again, Trump asked himself "WWHD?" -- What Would Hitler Do? So he's in a bunker.

46. Holed up like the rabid animal that he is. He's no president. He's a coward.

[BillyBobBrilliant]

50. Too bad he didn't take Eva...er

Melania with him to reenact the scene from WWII Germany

[DesertRat]

54. Where is Eva, err Melania, and their child?

[marie999]

56. Trumps family also went into the bunker.

On another note, I would strongly suggest that the protesters don't breach the fence around the WH because the Secret Service would use lethal force. If just a couple of protesters entered the grounds, they would be arrested. If the Secret Service felt overwhelmed it would be a bloodbath.

57. "This pampered pansy of a man"

Many thanks to The Rude Pundit (5/29/2020) for this perfect description of trump.

[Bayard]

60. Hmmm......

Well, he's one up on Obama for that one.

[ut oh]

61. C.O.W.A.R.D.

That's the word for it....

Agent Orange probably turned off the lights and left his wife and child in the WH.

[Blue_Tires]

62. America has no leader....

[yellowcanine]

67. Was Eva Braun there with him?
