CNN just doubled down on quoting him that he said "dominate the protesters" instead of being a "dominating force".
"Dominate the protesters" has a baked-in unjustified force angle to it. Like running over the innocent protesters, rather than being there to give RIOTERS the impression that it's not worth their time rioting.
This. Holy fuck their spin is insane. Everything with them is as fake as they are. A "photo op". Nothing has meaning anymore because they shit all over everything and pretend they're not the ones who did the shitting but the other one.
