President Donald Trump on Wednesday denied multiple news reports that he took refuge for his personal safety in an underground White House bunker during intense protests last Friday night outside the building over George Floyd’s death, claiming he only visited the bunker during the day for “a short inspection.”

“It was a false report. I wasn’t down [in the bunker],“on Friday evening, Trump said on Fox News Radio host Brian Kilmeade’s show.

“I went down during the day and I was there for a tiny, little short period of time and it was much more for an inspection, there was no problem during the day,” the president said.
