I bought have gold panda mollies, two platties, and two red dwarf gourami. My gold panda mollies are kind of bullying all the other fish in the tank. It's a 20 gallon tank. Any tips on how to make it stop?

fish are not children, you can not control their behavior,
 
if you recently purchased these fish i would recommend waiting at least a week to see if they calm down,
 
after that you can decide what you want to do with them
 
Maybe you could add more hiding spaces like caves and add more plants. Some mollies can be quite rude. One of mine killed my platy. Like Mikey said, there is no way to force the fish to change behavior, but you can give the other fish more cover.
 
We had one molly in particular who bullied our other fish, admittedly we did only have 3 males, and when we added some more fish he calmed down alot
