SILENT MAJORITY: Poll Shows American Voters Support Use of Military, National Guard in Riots
Breitbart ^ | June 02 2020 | ALLUM BOKHAR

Posted on 06/02/2020 12:38:36 PM PDT by knighthawk

A new poll by Morning Consult found that large majorities of American voters, including a majority of Democrat supporters, back use of the National Guard to address the riots and protests tearing apart cities around the nation. A smaller majority of Americans supports using the military.

The poll backs up the President’s claim that a “silent majority” is on his side in cracking down on the unrest.

71 percent of polled American voters said they support the use of the National Guard to supplement city police forces in addressing “protests and demonstrations” (the poll did not use the word “riots”) in American cities.

I’m sure the elites in the Rat Media Complex are shocked and saddened by this poll.

At least half of them have sh@t themselves over this, LMAO.

This will ultimately be yet another exploding cigar for the dems. Again, they think they’ve latched on to a can’t-miss strategy for wrecking America, which, in their heads, means getting rid of President Trump.

As always, they have overshot the runway. All Americans other than a bunch of stupid children will be thrilled when the President sends in the Marines. He will come out of this looking, again, like the strong and decisive leader that he is.

Sane America was already in no mood to have their lives disrupted further.

Let us first free the hands of the citizenry and call on them to defend themselves, their property, and their cities.

And no, CNN, that 71% does not equal “all the white people”.

Wearing a badge doesn’t give one special rights or make them beyond reproach. Calling out police who did nothing to intervene as property was being stolen and destroyed and individuals assaulted is not the same as hating all cops. Some officers displayed moral cowardice and dereliction of duty and their inactions only serve to emboldened the rioters.

What riots?
How about these peaceful demonstrations ?

I see no talk of riots on MSNBC or CNN.

They talk about ‘angry protesters’

What a great video! True patriots defending their town.

Of course, the Left will call them vigilantes.

But patriots know the truth.

Amazing how quickly it changed from day one when it was limited to Minneapolis and people saw no issue with looting their own target, but when it comes close to the city or Home suddenly they want it stopped. Strange how that happens.

Some AC130s would solve this problem in short order.
