President Trump has taken to tweeting “LAW & ORDER!” — no doubt a reflection of his aides’ advice that law and order has been a strong card for Republicans (although they might have imagined some messaging less hysterical than “LAW & ORDER!”). Trump bangs that drum loudly, insisting that a radical mob is roaming the country, coming not just for statues but also for your house and children. It is an issue that he certainly wants to highlight, but for a number of reasons, he very likely is helping Democrats to claim the issue of public order and domestic tranquility.
The Post-ABC News poll finds: Biden has a 20-point advantage on who is more trusted to deal with the coronavirus outbreak, a 25-point advantage on race relations and a nine-point advantage on crime and safety.

Most important, Trump personally does not embody law and order. Among the most chaotic presidents and the most contemptuous of courts, he makes clear that his objective is not calm but accretion of power, untrammeled power. (“I have an Article II, where I have the right to do whatever I want.”) His rants do not convey someone able to exert calm and order; he cannot even control himself. As a matter of policy, he seeks to destroy democratic institutions, bend the military to his political ends and “dominate” the streets. He associates with and frees from punishment convicted felons. This is not the calm, cool and collected protector of tranquility, but rather an instigator who foments conflict and encourages violence.

It’s like people saying that socialism hasn’t been tried.
Ms. Rubin, drugs are bad, mkay?
And yes Spewit, you do read Free Republic, as you mentioned them as a source for your news, reading the right pane. Screw you Hugh. I apologize for saying it.
Why doesn’t this idiot along with other CONservatives in the media like Nicole Wallace and Steve Schmidt just admit they’re Democrats and have been paid well to infiltrate and disrupt the GOP as much as they can?
