Protesters had been moved aside for Trump's display, and Milley would later apologize for attending, saying his presence gave the impression that the military was operating against Trump's opponents.
"As many of you saw, the result of the photograph of me at Lafayette Square last week. That sparked a national debate about the role of the military in civil society," Milley said at the time. "I should not have been there. My presence in that moment and in that environment created a perception of the military involved in domestic politics."
