As in this article, I think a lot of these riots are carried out by the right, not the left, after all, it's the right that benefits from the violence. I've read it here many times that the violence is helping Trump. https://www.wsls.com/news/virginia/2...GHzR8p9RFM6JhM
It’s true, the strategy is to make Trump look like the law and order candidate. But the problem is his storm troopers are making the situation work.
Judging by his handling of the pandemic, things didn't have to be this bad. It is bad because he spent his time downplaying it.
Actually, he acted much earlier than other leaders. While Trump was shutting down flights from CHina, Pelosi was celebrating in Chinatown and calling Trump a racist for stopping the China flights.
There’s a lot in that excellent article, but as the writer points out, the unapologetic antisemitism on the left soon will yield to the most blatant Jew-hate since Nazi Germany. And it’s being kicked off by blacks on the left.
It is amazing the degree of disgusting bigotry the left accepts - as long as it’s against the Jews, and when spewed by blacks. We’ve seen it in recent days especially as one black celebrity after another spews his venom - with barely a slap on the wrist - but the most telling is that leader of the Philadelphia NAACP, who, after posting the most nasty Jew-hating meme, not only refuses to step down from his post, but refuses to apologize to the Jews!
There has been a call by Jewish groups for this “leader” against racism to step down after his show of racism (against Jews), but what we really need is BLACK groups to stand up and say, “if we want whites to treat blacks as equals, rather than inferior, we cannot then turn around and mock and taunt another minority as being inferior.”
The Democratic Party has always been the place where bigots can go, and use government to promote and act upon their racist, bigoted views.
Never said I was one, but I listen to the specialists while the president (who definitely isn't one), is throwing his specialist under the bus.
I and everyone I know have practiced what this administration has stated from the beginning. First isolation (work from home if possible, no crowds, etc) , then social distancing, masks, gloves, sanitizing. And luckily not a single one of us has become infected. We even managed to sell a house, purchase another and moved in through all this.
Obviously your results must have been different. Hindsight always being 20/20 , things could have been different. Full lock down of the boarder except for expats back in mid January. and issuing stay at home orders in March. I think we still would have ended up where we are at though.
Things were calming down until Trump sent in the troops. Now it’s flaring up again. The harder those troops push, the harder protesters will push back. Nobody wins.
Actually, he acted much earlier than other leaders. While Trump was shutting down flights from CHina, Pelosi was celebrating in Chinatown and calling Trump a racist for stopping the China flights.
Trump was president and not Pelosi. Trump did shut down flights from China, a month after he got the virus intel. Meanwhile, nationals were still traveling into the country.
I tried to read it, but no "astute political commentator" writes, "Trump Derangement Syndrome" so I stopped there.
Yes, anyone who cites a non-existent (i.e. phony) psychological condition to make their case is not to be taken seriously. The whole rant was nothing but crackpot alt. right boilerplate anyway.
