The only real shot we've got is to let the left run wild for a bit, and thereby discredit themselves with the majority of the country that still hasn't lost their minds. Maybe the suburbanites who think it is trendy to voice support for BLM will start to reconsider when they realize the movement isn't quite what they think.
Leftist radicals smashing stores, and toppling statues of Washington and Grant, adds to vote total we will need in November.

Agreed, this could be a case of not interrupting your enemy when they are making a mistake. I’m not sure what will happen at the voting booth however. Generally though, when the people see the mob and what the mob will do, they will side with law and order every time.
