Oh yeah......it's your credibility going down in flames.
there was credibility? When all one does is parrot the talking-point-du-jour, credibility went thataway. At some point yesterday, every topic became "Trump will try to stay in power even when he loses".
The Portland protestors and rioters are free philosophically to burn books and flags all they want. It is their right, just like peaceful assembly. I support all legal exercise of your rights. Of course, it's illegal to start a fire like that in Portland, but that's for local cops to enforce their laws.
Now, how the activity is perceived today or by voters in November, who knows.
The Nordic countries have democratically chosen to pay for universal health care and lifetime retirement through some of the highest taxes in the free world, paid by their reliance on an extensive free market capitalist system. They have also democratically chosen to limit immigration due to the fiscal burden imposed by their welfare state.
And they don't have the massive defensive budgets and welfare state that we do either, not to mention the billions we spend in foreign aid.
Good luck trying to get everyday Christians to see that this marxist movement is trying to erase Christianity. Churches are barely talking about it to their congregations.
I tried to get my pastor to address it and he told me it was a 'distraction.' Right...a distraction. They are burning churches, tearing down statues, burning Bibles, and every other day there is an article attacking Christianity for being a repository of 'white supremacy.' It's not that I wanted him to preach a sermon on it. But let's at least say the obvious out loud.
If this was happening to mosques or the Koran, it would be all over the news. And Christianity would be uniting against religious persecution. As they should, because an attack on one religion is an attack on all religions.

Here's the thing, millions and millions of people on the left side are biting their tongue and looking the other way because of how triggered they are by Donald Trump. They are letting all this slide because they're so scared of giving any minute advantage whatsoever to Trump. I don't think they understand the damage they're doing, but be that as it may, if Biden wins and they continue the behavior after the election, they will be complicit (if they aren't already) in the destruction of everything they hold dear
More peaceful protests since fed backed off in Portland. If this is the worst people can find now, it's impossible to dispute the fact it was the feds causing rioting.
How can you deny reality? There was 50+ nights of violence, destruction, and riots. When the city and state couldn’t or wouldn’t put a stop to this, the federal government intervened to protect federal property. As someone who lives less than 1.5 miles from where all this is happening, I support this intervention.
No one can truthfully claim that there was no violence, rioting, or destruction before Trump’s intervention. You are either a liar or ignorant if you deny that was happening. And neither category reflects well on you.
