When Mayor Jenny Durkan (D-Seattle) finally sent police in to clear up the Capitol Hill Autonomous Zone (CHAZ) Occupied Protest (CHOP) — perhaps better referred to as “Antifastan” (no offense to Central Asian countries) — she only acted because President Donald Trump was about to do so if she delayed. The president himself confirmed a rumor to that effect on Sean Hannity’s show Thursday night. Trump said he forced Durkan’s hand to restore law and order after antifa militants had seized territory in Seattle.
“I had a source that told me, I was not able to confirm it, that one of the reasons that the Seattle mayor finally acted is that they were given notice that if they didn’t act that you were going to. Is there any truth to that?” Hannity asked.
“A hundred percent,” Trump replied. “We were going in, we were going in very soon, we let them know that. And they, all of a sudden, they didn’t want that. So they went in before we got there.”
“But we were going in very shortly, very soon, and we would have taken the CHOP, they call it, CHOP. We would have taken it back very easily,” the president added. “But they went in and, frankly, the people just gave up, they were tired, they had it for a very long period of time.”
Later on in the interview, Trump added, “We were all set to go into Seattle. Quite frankly, I looked forward to it.”
Antifa and Black Lives Matter militants seized six blocks of Seattle in early June, dubbing the area an “autonomous zone,” CHAZ. They set up signs telling visitors they were “leaving the United States.” In doing so, they arguably acted like the Paris Commune of 1871, a historical rebellion

And here I thought she went in because they went to hert house the night before.
Now what about the 40-day On-going occupation and destruction of Portland, Oregon?
That’s the word on the street — she was okay with it all until it affected her personally.
That was my understanding, too. It got personal at her house.
Illegal to shut down hostage taking and stokhomian syndrome nonsense in Seattle? These terrorists would have brought fuel to burn it all down fight club style
Never let that happen.
so....does that mean he’s regained control of Esper and Milley?
Did she say that between tokes?
Why can’t Trump just to take credit for what he wisely DID DO (wait it out, let the Leftist idiots collapse of their own vacuity and criminality, discredit their movement, avoid giving them martyrs)? His response as presented here makes him look like the kind of jerk who says, “I was going to leap into the ring and whip Mike Tyson. He’s really lucky you guys held me back.”
Living in WA state, it drives them nuts everytime Trump speaks, Inslee is having a press conference almost daily to answer Trumps directives. Inslee is trying to stir up liberal base against conservative, his polling is very bad and he might actually be beat this election.
We HAVE to beat him and I hope it happens in the primary- that he’s not in the top two. If he’s re-elected, we’re doomed.
It deprives the left of the claim that he didn’t care about people, wouldn’t send anyone in, uncaring elitist billionaire, etc., etc.
In Portland, the cops only go after conservative protesters.
Now what about the 40-day On-going occupation and destruction of Portland, Oregon?
Think of Trump as a stage magician. A magician is a master at getting his audience to look at the wrong things.
Trump is aided by very good instincts. I was very surprised when Trump came out early in support of hydroxychloroquine. To me this appeared to be a needlessly risky move. I saw the French “study” as being extremely weak and overhyped. The attacks on Trump are now being revealed as political, unjustified, and corrupt.
I bet Jeb is still trying to convince people that he is not “low energy”.
Consider Biden. Does Joe get into this CHOP topic? Does he claim that he would have gone in, thus agreeing with what Trump said? Or does he claim that he would not have gone in as Trump did not? Or does Biden just ignore this insurrection and lawlessness? You tell me.
It’s becoming more and more clear that the big city mayors and blue state governors are complicit with the rioters.
Trump has not done a number on biden’s crimes.. is he saving it for a debate? if Durham does not get that out before the election... the dirt on biden, hillary and barry should be out and talked about to the people..
No, not everyone knows what has been going on for 4 years. NO, not everyone knows who and what barry and biden are and what hillary did.. they don’t know about china.. nor biden’s son...they have been told it’s all Trump who is the bad one. Hearing the media they have access to.. “he must have done something”.. and that makes me speak up...
Trump and the republicans who have showed a bit of help.. had better tell the voters who biden is..
I look at this scenario...I look at what is going on for november...and I can not believing what I am seeing. Biden is not fit for anything...let alone the oval office. and yet the democratic party is running him as their candidate. I am saying this... they are up to something..they are not going to go the distance with a man who is not all there... debate or no debate.. they are up to something..
Nice of her not caring at all at other peoples' houses and businesses. It's all about her.
