who says Trump is the only one, or believes he's the ONLY one if that's what he's claiming? Has he claimed he's the one, not Biden, or one of his typical boasts that he's the "only one"?

If Portland or Seattle or MPLS want to run their cities this way, that's their right up to a point. Portland gets about 1.3% of their budget from the Feds. Swear it off, run your city how you want.

well, the R's tried to get a police reform bill to the Senate floor, and the Dems wouldn't allow that...

we've already gotten some prison reform

we're in the process of getting inner-city investment going

Detroit is one. And they welcomed the help. And it's been a huge success. No unrest here, and it's been close a couple of times.

The cities that refused the help, the ones that are in turmoil....well all the unrest is on the Democratic leadership. Period.

So, Obama & Biden were elegant at lying, while Trump is brutal while telling the truth.

yes. he said "uninvited".

how interesting though that you, a Republican, could praise your Dem city leadership. What are you, crazy?

Trump is not a king. We have a thing called the 10th Amendment. That you want the POTUS to overlook that is very concerning.

Most of America (Trump's America) is doing well. The COVID-19 infection and death rates were considerably lower than in democrat-run cities. We are working and productive, with minimal restrictions. There have been minimal protests because we don't have the crime rates experienced in democrat-run cities, thus fewer police interactions. I look around my city and see successful people of all races working, taking care of their families, and enjoying what this community has to offer. Trump's America is prospering.

The reason we are angry is that as Americans, we are concerned for our fellow Americans whose lives are being destroyed by the Marxist uprising, concealed in the BLM Trojan Horse operating in the law free zones of democratic cities.

I don't think it will be tolerated much longer.

Not everyone. The only time I have voted for "R" or "D" was when I voted for Ron Paul, and he was not your typical mainstream Republican. He is the kind of person who would stop the circle known as "insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, but expecting different results."

However, this time people are actually ready to vote the the same exact person and same exact policies hoping it would somehow fix the massive problems we have today.
