TBH if he wants to distract people from his shittiness then poking the bear that lead to worldwide protests and riots is not the play. Trump's previous admin teargassed crowds of people in front of the white house over the BLM protests sparked by the death of George Floyd. This is like him waving a sign saying "Just storm the premises already, I want to be mauled by a mob."
