Burned-out stores, a torched parking lot and National Guardsmen walking the streets - these are the scenes of Kenosha that Donald Trump will use as the backdrop for a campaign event as he visits Wisconsin today.
The president is expected to hammer home his 'law and order' campaign message when he arrives around 1pm EST, meeting with members of local law enforcement and surveying damage caused by three days of rioting sparked by the police shooting of Jacob Blake.
While the city is still counting the cost of the disturbance, the mayor has requested $30million in state aid to help repair the damage.
Trump insisted on coming to the state despite the objections of both Democratic governor Tony Evers and city mayor John Antaramian, amid 'concerns' that his presence will set back efforts to restore calm.
Large parts of Kenosha's uptown neighborhood - where many of the city's black and Hispanic residents live - were damaged or destroyed by rioters between August 23, the day of Blake's shooting, and August 25, when two protesters were shot dead.

Just run the video with the words “Vote Democrat” overlaid
I think the real damage far exceeds the $30 million estimate.
Just an aside: I hate pop ups. Even set to stop them the browser just lets them through.
God bless DJT.
I think it is a very good idea for Trump to do this. It draws attention to what happened, it shows the people of Kenosha that he cares, and it is a perfect stage to hammer the law and order message. The Kenosha riots have ended.
I pray DJT wears a “vest” on the visit. The rats are looking for any opp to take DJT out.
The Secret Service had better be on the ball during this visit.
Protest-torn Kenosha

After all of this, If DJT doesn’t win WI, there’s something definitely wrong.
The rent-a-mob agency is sending a message that this can happen anywhere unless you play by their ever changing rules.
Corporations who contribute to this type of mayhem ought to be fined a six-fold amount for damage repair.
I hope they don’t suck DJT into bailing them out.
It was hard to tell if some of the images were of the same buildings and same car lots, but it looked like at least a dozen businesses were destroyed - perhaps many more - and at least 40 or 50 cars. But the extent of rioting has been wildly exaggerated by Trump and conservative media. /s
John Solomon’s ‘Just the News’ is unusable due to autoplay vids. Safari and Apple won’t let me turn them off.
Why won’t someone say it out loud?
The riots are being put on by professional, neo-marxist operatives. The riots are not protests over the deaths of Black males.
The riots were planned and implemented at a very high level. Not “grassroots.” We may never know their names. They are radicals dedicated to the destruction of this country and replacing it by a repressive, totalitarian state.
It is financed by soros and others. bammy has some part in the planning. The democrat party is aware of this and has universally agreed to support the rioters and to never stop them or prosecute them.
How do I know? I know. Here are a few clues: the media crows in unison “George Floyd riots.” “Peaceful protests.” All democrat mayors and governors give moral and material support. This is an election year, after the democrats did an impeachment, and artificially inflated an epidemic.
“Corporations who contribute to this type of mayhem ought to be fined a six-fold amount for damage repair.”
The President ought to Tweet a suggestion like that. That would set them spinning.
Note that there are few Blacks participating in the riots, burning, destruction, assaults and murder. This was not done as an angry reaction to a killing by a cop. It’s being done by paid anarchists.
Trump has serious brass balls
Campaign Event!? No, Leadership event! He's visiting a disaster area.
Have you also noticed the few Blacks in the rent-a-mobs we see streamed are mostly there for opportunistic reasons such as looting when the Antifa mob breaks and enters?
