“Is Trump just all talk on this and no walk?”

Read the Constitution. This is a state matter not a federal matter. The local authorities and state government have sufficient resources to deal with the situation.

It is a liberal mindset that the President has to be involved in local affairs or comment on local issues. Insurrection at the local level should be handled by local authorities. If they are impotent, or unwilling, the voters can vote them out of office. If the local voters continue to make poor selections (Chicago for example) they pay the price.

It was a federal matter in the 60s - have they rewritten the Constitution since then?

This is the beginning of a Communist revolution so obviously the Fed Gov needs to stand down? Stand down while the country burns and people are killed all because governors are part of the revolution or at least sympathetic?

Are you nutz?

I think Trump was making the mayor and governor respond, ie show their hand.

When they take over 100 city blocks? An entire city? An entire metropolitan area? A few counties? A State?
