Of course you'd have to assume that no one really supports violence (except perhaps those who engage in it,or who plan or fund it to further their own agendas), when some refuse to see it for what it is, turn a blind eye to the reality, sugar coat it into a euphemism that doesn't come close to describing the reality, that is tacit support and encouragement of the rioting.

Who are you referring to? It seems you still can't produce a quote.

The people rioting and looting know Biden can't win, so the riots will have no impact on the election whatsoever. Democrat politicians may be afraid to condemn the rioting because they think the looters are going to be voting for Biden, but most of the people committing the violence and destruction probably aren't going to vote anyways.

Dims simply don't know how to handle this situation. There is no leadership on the left. The democrat party is fractured, and moving in many different directions simultaneously. They can't even lead their own party. How the hell can they lead America? They can't. We would all have to accept daily riots as a part of American life if democrats take control. It wouldn't just be democrat cities. It would be republican towns too, if Biden is elected. Citizens who defend themselves would be rounded up and sent to the gulag.
yeah and none of this garbage would be happening if the blacks all of a sudden got mad at the whites and killed this country in angry mobs just to let the dems win (other skin colors are left out of the question, looks like more roits on the way for when the Indians (if they still call natives that) decide they are superior like the blacks think they are) horsecrap.

Trump lost the 2020 election in 2018 when the Midterm showed Republican weakness. The midterm flipped 7 states to Democrat and none of the Democrat states were overturned back to the Republican. That is not based on any polling, or pundits.

Wisconsin Tony Evers (D)
Michigan Gretchen Whitmer (D)
Nevada Steve Sisolak (D)
New Mexico Michelle Lujan Grisham (D)
Maine Janet Mills (D)
Illinois JB Pritzker (D)

Plus 40 house seats went Democrat they only needed 23 to take control .

Did Bill Clinton lose the 1996 election when republicans took control in 1994? Did Obama lose the 2012 election when republicans took control in 2010?

Midterms often go opposite of the Presidency.

I'm talking about State Governors not as much of congress although it was noted. Very good chance the GOP will lose seats in the Senate.

You seem to have no knowledge of how the American system of government works. The president of the United States, whether its Obama or Trump, has NO AUTHORITY to control local police departments. Trump cannot call the Chief of Police of Portland, Oregon and tell them what to do. I didn’t blame Obama for the riots in Ferguson, Missouri.
