The Washington and Seattle left socialist democrats haven’t experienced enough pain and suffering yet. They are not ready to understand, to face the problems they themselves have created. President Trump knows that they need more time. He’s treating them like the immature teenagers they really are,

It’s rather beautiful. They can’t blame Pres. Trump for not doing something because they already preemptively rejected his offer of help. So now, they own the situation. A situation of their own making. It can be pointed out in every campaign event that this smoking disaster is fruit of how the Left governs.

Last Friday, you were arguing that the president had no authority to send in the National Guard. Now the president himself is saying he can do it anytime you wants. Read the article.

You’re welcome.

In normal times, like back in the 1950s when everyone loved our country, our Flag, God, respected rule of law... yes. Go in and flatten the domestic terrorists with batons, and crack skulls.

Today... different story. Since the democrats and the media HATE this country, Trump has to tippy-toe around using force until AFTER the election. Hopefully Trump will become the equivalent of an A10 Warthog on November 4th.

His mistake was issuing the threat in the first place.

Agreed. He said “If you don’t do it, I will.“

When you issue a threat to use force, you better be prepared to act on it.

—————————-

Stop and think if the president threatened to use force as a dare to get state and local officials to act as they should have; perhaps knowing they wouldn’t.

Certainly the president could’ve sent in the army to stop that rebellion. That would have been exactly what these anarchists would have wanted. It would’ve played into their hands.

Indeed they would. I was just thinking about how Joe is running a historically terrible campaign. It’s only the “ Hidin’ Biden “ strategy. That’s it.. Nothing more. I feel much more comfortable against him than I did with Hillary.
It will be a landslide if Trump just doesn’t eff it up.

It all comes down to the VP pick. People will be more excited about the VP than Biden.

Most of these feral creatures don’t have parents. Those that do, the parents are paying for the spray paint, gasoline, and bricks.

“All true but it is primarily a state responsibility to restore order in Seattle. The governor needs to request assistance from the federal government.”

It is up to the local government to restore order. If the government of Seattle does not restore order they should be voted out of office by the local residents.

If the local government is so corrupt voting does not work you should consider moving to a Red State.

I afraid in about two years we will not be a United States anymore so it might be best to start preparing to move your family to a friendly state.

"How does a guy like that get the money and vehicles he has? Who supports this POS?"

I would bet on China (and Iran and Venezuela). If the US crushes dissent within our borders they have a green light to run tanks into Hong Kong... Trump is smart to give them a few blocks to win the strategic war.

“And if it’s so great to sit back and do noting as Western Civilization and the law is torn down, why did he say this:”

Don’t be so foolish. President Trump can act at any time to put down this insurrection. But as a tactical matter the communist/Left/BLM/(fascist)antifa would love nothing better than another KentState (before your time).

It is way mo betta to leave them to stew and let the rest of the country see what is in store if it kneels to their Maxist demands.

This too weak. The National Guard should be federalized and maybe een Washington should be occupied ad treated as a conquered province. This is not 4d chess; it is fecklessness.

Yup. Too bad so many here do not understand actions have consequences beyond tomorrow.

Indeed they will... No matter who it is.
Joe has 30% enthusiasm and that’s quite helpful no matter how much people hate Trump.
The only thing less popular than Biden right now are Congress, the Fake News, and Covid.

said, "“right now, I think it’s great sitting back and watching this catastrophe.” -— I hope he didn’t say this.

I doubt he said it that way. I've looked can't find it. Which suggests it's not the way he worded it
Trump loves to Troll the left
Here is Christian Datoc (Same reporter) taking with this with Commander Guy Snodgrass a couple days ago on the same issue

I wish the folks way back when had thought it through when they thought bringing folks from Africa over here to be slaves was a good idea.

The commie-dems are hoping that Trump will declare marshal law so they can use it against him in the Nov election.

Yeah.

Better to go full-on to subdue 3 square blocks of some 3rd rate hippy dumpster fire, in a small neighborhood, because most people here just want to see them get their butts kicked.

They’re going to demand action. They’re not going to get action. Maybe THEN they’ll realize the Democrats are NOT on their side and NOT keep voting them into office decade after decade.

I disagree with the last part. They’re not going to get action. Maybe THEN they’ll realize the Democrats are NOT on their side BUT THEY WILL keep voting them into office. They are Democrats after all.
