1. America doesn't belong to the president.
2. Democrat run cities are refusing to squash the violent protests and riots, and also refuse to accept federal help offered by president Trump to end the riots.
The president runs America, he does not own it. The buck stops at his desk.
The protestors are protesting the violence committed on them by the police.
The riots are not by protestors.
The helpers Trump is sending are creating more violence.
Trump is causing the violence.
We'll I'll try to educate you then. The president does not "run America", he is not a dictator, he does not have totalitarian power. The vast majority of "running America" is done at the state and local levels which is exactly how the constitution set it up.
That's the reason why you get 3rd world nonsense when you've had the wrong kind of Democrats run an area for too long like Seattle or Portland and why you never see that kind of thing in parts of the country with competent leaders at the local and state level.
Do you wonder why America, in the first time in decades, has seen this level of violence? It’s you who have created this level of hate and division. It is you who have not found a way to say the names of Black people killed by police officers even as people in law enforcement have. And it’s you who claimed white supremacists are good people. Your campaign of fear is as anti-democratic as anything that you’ve done to create hate and vitriol in our beautiful country. You’ve tried to divide us more than any other figure in modern history. And now you want me to stop the violence that you helped create.
Of course, donnie bone spurs and his fawners will blame everyone else for the unrest.
The buck never stops with donnie bone spurs.
Let's "drain the swamp" for real in Nov...
BIDEN - HARRIS
I've quit trying to correct your everyday American half-wits who believe the bolded to be true. But for any elected official to not know better is more a reflection on them than on what Trump actually said.
As I'm wont to say, Wheeler is either willfully ignorant or maliciously misleading.
The carnage seems to be escalating. Why is Donald Trump’s America so violent right now?
Don't worry, things will turn around in a couple months. People have seen the burning, looting and murdering occurring and being encouraged and endorsed by Democratic leadership across this country. Long-time Dem strongholds are turning red, especially the mayors and city councils. People had to see with their own eyes the complete disaster of voting for Democratic leadership. We've seen it across the country-Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, Detroit, Flint, Baltimore, and now, once again, New York City, turned into violent, crime infested crapholes under leadership that embraces criminals and thugs. I think most people regret their error now that they have seen the results.
So let's say your car is not running well and a friend offers to fix it. You refuse and a day later the engine blows up. Is it your friend's fault? Of course not, but a liberal would still blame someone else. It's what they do. They are incapable of recognizing the chaos they create and taking responsibility for it.
Keep pushing this "Trump's America" narrative. Nobody believes it, and all of you leftists just make yourselves look foolish.
Trump has pitted the people in our country against each other from day one. It's a great strategy on his part, keep the country occupied with other turmoils because it keeps the focus away from him and his corrupt administration. His latest division is praising the caravans of his supporters in Portland, shooting paintball guns at protesters. It just escalated it. Trump called them great patriots. Sounds like he's supporting vigilant antis. If you don't call that division then I don't know what to tell you. When has any other president done that.

Dream on. Police are going to continue to shoot minorities and too often kill them. Therefore, protests and riots will continue every time that happens. It's not a problem easily solved in blue or red cities. Interesting how protests seldom break out when the police kill a white person. I guess whites felt what that person did after being stopped by the police deserved it.
Most Democrat cities have been declining for 50 years or more with race riots some years. Yet, the Democrat mayors don't usually get voted out.
I haven't heard the police chief or the mayor in the red city of Oklahoma City condemn the protests, even after a few of them turn violent against the police.
