He is correct however when they come to your neighborhood and police dont show up for days then you have no choice. Riots are terrorism and you have a right to defend yourself against terrorists. Avoid it if you can but eventually you won’t be able to avoid it when they bring it to you

Yeah, it is past time. He has played a little bit of politics in this thing. He could have ended it a long time ago. We are now getting to the point where the Democrats need to beg him, because they have lost control. They have seriously screwed up. The President was probably a little surprised at just how far the Democrats were willing to go. It is shocking. They are willing to pull down our entire society.

Best line form yesterdays press conference I thought was:

[President Trump] ...but I have to see the people that did such a good job for me and were meeting with numerous people and we have tremendous support in the state of Wisconsin so I promised them when it all gets taken care of we'll come.

[deep state mouthpiece] There are concerns though that could exacerbate tensions and increase violence do you give any consideration to that.

[President Trump] Well it could also increase enthusiasm and it could increase love and respect for our country. …and that’s why I'm going cause they did a fantastic job.

Talk about getting paddled with the truth.

Same with the Dempanic.

He needs to throw both things at their feet and lay total blame on the RATs for both the RAT-terrorists destroying the cities, and for the RAT false alarm scare tactics, shutting down the US economy for half a year (over fewer than ten thousand actual CV deaths)

Time for him to get "real pissed off".

Let the left own this. After the election, Trump will “have more flexibility” to deal with this the right way...

He is right that's what the Dems want!

I'm not so sure. You can't keep refusing to engage just because that will somehow make the other side mad. That's bullsh*t.

“He is right that’s what the Dems want!”

Many of those confrontational types are are probably faux Trump supporters and agitators paid by the left to make trouble.

The riots and the virus hoax seem to be unraveling without him directly pushing. That’s fine. Millions of women are ALL IN on the virus. Reason will not budge them. It will take time and the steady flow of the truth coming out. It’s already happening. Of course the hoax will get a new bump in the coming weeks with new fake numbers, but it’s losing steam.

If he quells the riots, he gets credit for it. If he doesn’t, everyone know that they are happening in Democrat cities. This latest talking point they are trying is their most dishonest yet, which is really saying something.

“Yep. Wait until AFTER the election.”

That’s what was said in 2016 and no law enforcement happened in 2017, 2018, 2019, or 2020.

“The President wants Law and Order. Government has a few legitimate roles. Stopping rioting in the streets and maintaining order are a couple of them.”

Then why hasn’t Trump done that? To try to win an election??

We are in a global, silent war being waged on multiple fronts. We can’t let one lunatic distract us from the crticial outcome—victory for We the American People and for all the other freedom-loving peoples of the entire world. The world is watching.

These are different times than those. Things like this have to reach what I call “Critical mass”. I suspect it will after the election. I also believe it will be more obvious as election day nears.

Exactly.

If trump is the clear winner on election night, but mail in ballots after the fact put Biden over the top, accepting that is “kicking the football”.

There are a few possibilities. He would be right to say that it’s the primary responsibility of local and state authorities. That’s true. Democrat mayors and governors are letting their cities and states collapse.

He would also be right to point out that the feds do have some constitutional limitations, though that argument is weaker. Antifa and BLM have funding and organization. Jabba the Barr could undo their money in no time. End the money, end the riots. It would also be really easy for the feds to get BLM leaders to start saying a bunch of antisemitic stuff (again), which would also cause the money to dry up (again).

The President might be playing some politics while letting his opponents wreck themselves. That would be pretty cynical, but that’s the way things are.

I think the President is probably a little surprised at just how far the Democrats are willing to go. It’s like a game of chicken that went too far. It isn’t 1968 anymore. Democrat mayors don’t enforce the law. It’s shocking.

It's starting to look like DHS is quietly working on that. Funding and training can be traced all the way to other countries like Syria. There are 1000s of non-profits and "foundations" that funds are routed through to hide the sources. It does take time and they should have started working on it weeks ago but fedgov isn't known for speed in most cases. Word on twitter this morning is that BLM's twitter accounts are being deleted but it's up in the air as far as who's decision it was to do so. Some people are saying twitter trying to hide their(BLM's) tracks; some people saying DHS may have had a little talk with twitter; some people saying that twitter is trying to save themselves because they know the feds are investigating. There are no federal charges for people smashing windows, looting, burning etc so they're going after the supply line because that's interstate and hopefully that will lead them to the people funding things which is also in their jurisdiction.
