A coalition of activists around the country has shifted gears after polls closed on Election Day to take to the streets to ensure every vote is counted in the presidential election that’s included a record number of mail-in ballots amid the coronavirus pandemic.
The goal so far is to show a massive presence in the streets should President Trump fail to concede or challenge the election results in the event of a victory for Democratic candidate Joe Biden.
Various groups led by Black Lives Matter and Shutdown DC have conducted training sessions for months leading up to this moment, and cities including Washington, D.C., New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, Seattle and Portland have seen minor bouts of unrest overnight.

The unique blend of politics and law.
The more violent these protests are, and they most certainly will be, the more likely we win the PR war.
What would happen if Trump called his supporters to the streets? Has anyone considered that?
Fix bayonets
Time to kick this thing off
This is a classic gang tactic.
Rob you and then threaten to beat you if you object.
Yeah go ahead marxists burn the place down. We have been anticipating this for a while so let’s get it over with.
You boys come by the house, ya hear.
First, those funding and organizing these rioters, to include the politicians and the MSM. Then deal with the rioters themselves.
I think it’s time that our side start rioting. It apparently works much better than playing by the rules.
Bring it on losers
“What would happen if Trump called his supporters to the streets? Has anyone considered that?”
Regardless of the outcome (which I think will be a Trump win), some smart and serious people had better start thinking of how we split this country up as peacefully as possible. Otherwise, it will be very ugly. Not splitting is not an option.
If BLM wants to burn democrat cities, who am I to argue?
Stay armed, folks. Keep your head out of your phone - situational awareness is your friend.
Hitler and the Nazis came to power under similar circumstances.
I would try some other options first. do things which directly take on the centralizing power of Fed.gov, which the Left controls.
Ugly is the only path forward that will work. Too many on the left don’t listen to anything else.
Calm down.
Trump’s supporters don’t need to ‘be on the streets’. Let everything that happens out there be on the Leftists.
Most of the ‘activists’ and ‘BLM’ people have probably never even read the Constitution, nor do they understand how the election process is supposed to work. All they’re doing is what brainwashers - and those who pay their walking-around money - have fed them.
They’re mostly mindless. Why would anyone think it useful to be ‘on the streets’ with them?
(And President Trump would NEVER suggest anything of the sort.)
Naive.
We’ll be waitin’ fer ya!
OH NOES PROTESTS..like we havent seen this crap for 4 months now, who cares, let the morons protest
So, are you suggesting Civil War?
Are you educated enough to understand the horrible, needless devastation of the last one that we had?
And do you have no faith at all in the Man that we elected four years ago?
It’s a bad look for the only protests to be conducted by the left. If they are going to do this, the right needs to get involved in its own way.
