Like it or not, Trump will be the core around which the anti-BLM/Antifa resistance coalesces, because, really, there's no one else in that position.

How about taking a moment to think about it from another point of view?
What you're seeing on television is footage of many Americans who are saying exactly that: Enough is enough. Enough police violence. Enough hostility and violence directed at black citizens.
.
While we are trying to clean house, why don’t we also fix the violent crimes, drug issues, and thug culture depicted in many wrap songs, where violence against cops has been glorified. Living in a big city, the reality of this entire situation is, you never see a news story about a home invasion and it’s a couple of white dudes.
Fix that problem, and these other issues probably go away.
Gone with the Wind has been pulled from airing and is now #1 on Amazon. There you go, the people vote with their wallets!
That's why is so foolish to try to ban something. Lots of people have to see what they're being protected from and decide for themselves. In 1999 in Oklahoma City, nobody ever heard of the movie, "The Tin Drum" until a Christian Right idiot wanted it banned from the library, because he thought it had child porn in it, but at worse it was only in an off camera scene.

No.
The leftist paradigm is to blame, shame, and create victims. The left tells blacks that they need to be taken care of by the government, that the system is rigged against them, that whites/Asians/Hispanics are to blame, that America is unjust and so forth.
Trump (not Republicans, but Trump) is doing something different. It's a radical approach. Under Trump, blacks have had the lowest unemployment EVER. The wage gap between blacks and whites is at historic lows. Trump signed prison reform, correcting unequal policies put in place under Clinton. Trump created opportunity zones. He signed a $360 million grant to HBCU's. Worth noting is that Obama did none of these things.
Trump's approach is that there is no reason why blacks can't participate in US economic growth. The idea is that helping blacks out of poverty is the single best way to help the black community.
Meanwhile, Trump is the only politician I can think of denouncing looters and rioters and unwilling to give into the mob mentality.
What exactly do you find objectionable about any of the above?
Massive amounts of some of America’s largest cities were destroyed within a few week period.
This spectacular feat was not accomplished by a few rogue “bad apples”
These cities perished at the hands of thousands upon thousands of domestic terrorists known as democrats.
Own it. Deal with it. This is your fault.
But why didn't Republicans do anything about it to prevent the lawlessness that has been going on? Do you not know Republicans were totally in control during the first two years of Trump?
If you want to do something about it yourself, then vote 3d party. If 3rd parties get more than 10% of the presidential vote in Nov., it will send a message to the two major parties that it's time to clean up their acts.
Being anger is a definite problem. But mostly for your second grade language arts teacher.
But I thought that it was the Right who has bad math, logic, and emotional control?
But now its the left's anger and "enough is enough" self justification for violence that is rooted in a lack of emotional control, bad math, and bad logic that is to blame.
You should make up your mind.
I think you're talking out of both sides of your mouth. I pointed out that normal people are saying enough is enough to Racism which you basically say is bad this, this bad that. It's attitudes like this are why people are so angry that some are rioting.

I will be voting for trump to make absolutely sure that biden and most importantly, his affirmative action VP are kept out of the White House.
Republicans couldn’t have done anything to stop the unhinged democrat mob short of killing them, which isn’t really an option as we are still hopeful for a civilized, structured society going forward.
