We’re only a few days into the anti-riot crackdowns in Los Angeles by various armed government enforcers and already there are lives at stake.
No, not the lives of the hundreds of protesters out on the streets across America’s second-largest city, but the political lives – or at least longevity – of some of the highest-profile personalities to emerge during president Trump’s second turn in the White House.
SNIP
But the most consequential political life at stake here is that of Donald Trump himself – whose ultra-adversarial, bully-like tactics have yet to be tested as they are right now in California.
There has never been anything quite like the anti-ICE protests during either of Trump’s terms. The Women’s Marches and BLM protests of his first administration may have, at times, turned rowdy and chaotic – but their violence was never directed at the White House like it is right now. This moment is different. Very different.

The LA riots could destroy Gavin Newsom’s presidency, they mean!...............
Destroyed (deliberately) by MSM cesspits like the Telegraph. Treat them like CNN, all lies until proven otherwise.
It does show, tho, that the riots are deliberate, aimed towards defaming DJT.
Let LA burn, so long as the Korean shopkeepers get plenty of ammo.
You have no idea how hard I try to avoid this daily British tabloid crap.
Rioters burning and destroying things on American soil while flying the Mexican flag is not going to help your cause David Kaufman (D)! If anything you’ll raise Trump’s popularity even more.
Disgusting commentary from the UK that is rapidly swirling the bowl.
There are so many euphemisms for law and order lately. Here’s another for the list: “ultra-adversarial, bully-like tactics”
Attempted murder is not a protest. This will be a fine moment for Trump’s Presidency.
thanks for the sacrifice
That's right
They’re trying to replay 2020. Find out who is financing it and directing it and ‘fix the glitch’.
To a British cowardly Nancyboy, sure, anyone taking action is terrible. Of course, England no longer exists. It is an Afrikkan mooselimb country now.
Meanwhile, Greta is preaching anti-Jewish rhetoric....Why doesn’t her own country reign her in?
Unprecedented? What about when the president sent the army to drive out the WWI veterans from DC when they camped out on the Mall in an effort to get their promised benefits. You know like MacArthur who became a general in WWII. Although it did not help Hoover!
A message to David Kaufman:
When you get slapped, you’ll take it and like it. You filthy worm have not seen anything yet. Much more pain is headed your way. /spit
I’d like to spit some Beechnut in that masked dude’s eye...
Why can’t they riot at Maxine Waters house?
One of the smart, and overdue, features of the President’s order is to arrest anyone in masks. I don’t think anyone can plausibly say that masks are needed for warmth in LA in the summer.
As an aside, a commentator spoke of Mayor Bass sitting by as her city burned to the ground; I would have to add “(again). “
My memory is a bit hazy but didn’t the Dem Convention Riots in 1968 help elect Nixon? With the rest of the country watching the Dems expose their true selves in LA maybe this will help the R’s in the midTerms.
They’re already giddy.
Try a neutron bomb. Cheesh. Why the stupid wrong tactics on this?
