Original Note:
President Trump did not order the tear gassing of protesters. DC metropolitan police were the ones who deployed the gas. In fact, the other federal officers were surprised of this because they were told specifically not to use tear gas. https://www.npr.org/local/305/2021/06/10/1005114189/report-d-c-police-responsible-for-tear-gas-use-during-lafayette-park-clearing
