As opposed to the Republicans who in large numbers refuse to wear masks, to simply be a decent human being and wear the damned thing as a courtesy to the people around them who may not share their views? That represents the party of good?
They have done the impossible, taken a world wide crisis and turned it into a political weapon. And as a result of their selfish attitude more Americans will be hurt from this behavior than in the riots.
First of all, please re-read my post.
I said, chaz is one example how far Democratic politicians can go to destroy the country. That is why I won't vote for a Democratic POLITICIAN.
I live in California, a LARGE numbers of people who refuse to wear masks are Democrats. So I don't know what your point is bringing up the masks.

I work with a LOT of Democrats and POC.
80-90% of them don't wear masks or pay any serious attention to social distancing.
How would you stop the rioting? Have the police open fire with live ammunition using the crowd for target practice?
You cannot possibly be that dense in real life and still figure out how the internet works.
There are many methods of riot control that can be employed that don't involve shooting people with live ammo.
And Dem politicians could start by publicly denouncing the riots and calling for an end to the protests that are just enabling the violence to continue.
But they won't even do that...... they parrot the false BLM narrative that is now openly Marxist.
Democrats are going to learn the hard way that the enemy of their enemy is NOT their friend.
You need better reading comprehension and reasoning skills.
I said:
"most people on the left didn't, and wouldn't, participate in riots."
"many/most people on the left disapprove of rioters."
"rioters don't represent "the left" anymore than, say, racists represent the right."
In other words, these rioters might be "leftists" as you call them (though I'm betting most of these thugs know little about politics and probably don't vote), but not all leftists are rioters. You actually need me to clarify that?
Let's put it another way: the vast majority of people who commit violence against men, against women, against children, against animals, and the vast majority of people who participate in civic destruction...are men.
Does that mean the vast majority of men commit violence and are destructive? By your logic, the answered to that question is "yes."
Really? Show me the left-wing leadership that "disapproves" of the rioters. Show me Democratic leadership that has condemned and disavowed the BLM racists and the Pantifa communists. Show me the ones calling for them to be tossed in prison for rioting, looting and burning. Show me the Democrats that have shown solidarity for the police officers slaughtered by these animals in the last month. Show me the Democrats that have stood up for ANY of their victims. Show me the leftist celebrities donating and supporting the victims, rather than the savages. Show me the media condemning the savages yanking people out of their vehicles and assaulting them.
If any of the left actually do oppose these thugs-they are too cowardly to come out and say so and condemn them. In fact the opposite is true-many have come out in support of the rioters. To the point that some fools put on their little cultural appropriation scarfs and took a knee on the floor of the capital to support them. Hell, most of these cowards haven't even condemned Jussie Wallace for his racist hate crime hoax.
Independent here. Are we supposed to pretend that Donald J. Trump is not an incumbent and all of this is not happening under his watch? Could it be that his impotent leadership and scorched earth tactics are part of the problem? Oh wait, no we're supposed to believe that nothing is ever Trump's fault and after 3 years of chaos and undermining institutions, he's suddenly the law & order candidate.

"Independent"? Like Jussie Smollet or Louis Farrakhan Independent
So, the Rioters, Looters, Communist, and the Anarchist burning down businesses and attacking police are Trumps doing? These very same police that were the hero's of the Left 2 months ago "on the front line of the Corona Virus, are now all the enemies. I'll take the pettyTrump over the new Democrat Socialists and Democrat Anarchist.
Democrat cities, with Democrat Mayors, city councils, and Democrat installed Police Chiefs are where Black men and women are being killed by the police, and where the Riots are occurring, not Trump lands.
With Statues Gone, Pigeons Forced To Poop On Rioters
Quote:
Yes! Down with racism--AHHHHH!!!!" screamed one rioter just after pulling down a statue of Christopher Columbus. The pigeons immediately turned on him, with a squadron of the birds divebombing him to unload hundreds of pounds worth of excrement. "Run!!!"
Rioters frantically tried to put the statues back up as they were attacked by the feral flocks. "Put Christopher back! Quick!" cried one Antifa group as they were swarmed by a whole fleet of pigeon bombers. But try as they might, their weak liberal arms could not lift the statue and they were forced to flee the scene.
