Stephen Colbert has given President Donald Trump’s attack on protesters a new nickname. 

This week ― the 31st anniversary of the Chinese government’s crackdown on pro-democracy protesters in the Tiananmen Square massacre ― Trump had peaceful protesters forced out of Lafayette Square near the White House with teargas and flashbacks. Or, as Colbert called the operation in Washington: “Tiny Man Square.” 

Colbert also called Trump “full of crap” for claiming the protesters were “violent people in many cases” and “a lot of bad people.”
