Did he do that?
One of the few things that winds up being included in all four gospels.
The version in John is the best, though
I don’t know why, but this came to mind(way cooler,honestly):
Check out his cross
You bet your ass he did.

I guess I could read John to understand the context.
He's mad that people are selling stuff in the temple when it should be holy (and commercial activity is NOT holy)
It wasn't just commercial activity. Money changers were charging a fee to buy shekels which people could use to buy an animal to sacrifice at the temple. Jesus was mad because the idea of inserting yourself as a middleman to extort money from people seeking salvation was basically blasphemy.
Also lots of "well, you're animal isn't really pure enough. But you're in luck because we happen to have a few High Priest Certified^tm^ animals right over here. We'll just take yours on trade and you can pay the difference!" (then resell the perfectly good sacrificial animal to the next poor pilgrim who comes along)
