I’ve never actually seen it.
I have no choice but to watch it now.

So what does Trump gain by the empty threats? Exactly what do they accomplish?

And mind you my frustration also comes after Trump’s first supreme court pick made the same perverted decision today that any justice appointed by Hillary Clinton would have made. So his alleged wisdom has some serious catching up to do. And empty threats for no apparent reason are not helping.

What killed Bush was he flew to Louisiana and apologized for being a loser.

Every day this goes on there are new Trump voters, the choice becomes starker.

Soros and the deep state were counting on the optics of a federal crackdown. Now they’re all standing up to their necks in sht with no relief in sight.

Please announce when Luis Marquez is in custody. He lives in Portland, was in CHAZ on Saturday promoting revolt. That's a federal felony. Dearly needs to be hooked up, and in Leavenworth for a few dozen years.

Perhaps they will give him a bath, and pull all his remaining rotten teeth.

Trump's laying the blame on those responsible. He's calling their bluff. He's turning the tables on the blame Trump strategy.

Now they are in a box. They are responsible. If anyone gets hurt or killed, it's on Dem Govs and Mayors.

Voters are seeing what's happening. You need something this powerful to get groupthinkers to reassess their assumptions and break free of the correct thinking police.

“- - behind the scenes are federal agents from various federal agencies quietly arresting those involved.”

Interesting you mentioned that. A couple weeks ago when Minneapolis was at the height of it’s uproar I was traveling west on US 2 in ND. I met cop car after cop car and sometimes a convoy of cop cars. All kinds. All heading east towards the Minnesota war zone.

Or home being comforted by her wife.

Stuff it! POTUS is playing this perfectly. He’s setting them up for the blame.

Durkan’s career is over. Her dream to be Governor and then the next Hillary Clinton has gone up in smoke.

Enfeebled pleas to DO SOMETHING are exactly what these stupid leftists want. They want POTUS to execute a crackdown so their fake news can blast to the world that Trump sent in fascist agents to commit brutality against ‘peaceful protesters’. They are deliberately provoking this to happen but their plan is backfiring because the Seattle public is getting fed up and the nation is learning the reality.

Durkan is already in a battle with high ranking Seattle police officials who see rapes and looting taking place inside this crime scene while the Mayor calls it a block party and whispers a stand down order. Progressives are self-destructing.

POTUS is getting and repeating the names in the national and world news and reemphasizing how incompetent the local politicians are. He’s branding them with accurate negative descriptors. This has to be done to leak through the media barricade of news to the nation and to the world. Once the reality leaks through, the public will be praying POTUS sends in a rescue force, then POTUS is good to go.

If the Mayor and the dumbass Governor don’t get it under control, the emerging public backlash will continue to grow and will welcome federal agents hitting the streets of Seattle. This is how it will play out.

FNC reporter on the ground in CHOP says Trump is lying about the situation, its overwhelmingly peaceful with very isolated violence.

They didn’t want to be an “autonomous zone” any more, because they don’t want to try to be self-sufficient.

Those that know history know that fascists put up a show to persuade onlookers and the world outside that all is calm and orderly.

But locals like me know differently.

Two days ago:

“Seattle police chief and mayor at loggerheads over handling of George Floyd protests, autonomous area”

He is calling out their inaction.As soon as the murders and rapes and stealing starts...he will say...I told them to do something about it. When you can blow the place to smithereens with a MOAB...there is no reason to do it so quickly.

Is Trump a Dylan fan?

Idiot wind
Blowing every time you move your mouth
Blowing down the backroads heading south
Idiot wind
Blowing every time you move your teeth
You’re an idiot, babe
It’s a wonder that you still know how to breathe

What’s the upside of the President stepping on the anarchists in Seattle? One drop of blood and he will be vilified 24/7...while the residents are getting fed up and the world gets to see how the Left operates if he does nothing but keep it in the forefront of the news.

::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::

No. By threatening to go in, Trump has acknowledged that he knows this is a dangerous situation and people are getting hurt and property destroyed. Yet he does nothing except make threats. Him letting it go on makes him complicit.

I think there is some extreme rationalizing going on here with these other theories that somehow Trump is winning over voters by acknowledging there’s a problem, saying he will do something about it, and then doing nothing. It might make a little sense if Trump used this as a teaching moment in civics and explained about states rights vs. the federal government and that votes have consequences. But that is not what he ever does. He does not teach. He just throws out verbal anger and my opinion is that it makes him look bad and absolutely does not win him votes. But it certainly may be losing him votes.

And a fair reply would be, “You also said you were going to do something about it and you didn’t. And this was not the first time.”
