    We've seen clips, of cops beating protestors of course, scattered across news organizations. But the reality is, cities across the country are being destroyed. If you follow the action on Twitter, you can really grasp how devastating the destruction has been.

    This is national news, but theres hardly any national live coverage.

    Most of the information I've seen has come across social media.

    City Hall in Nashville was burned. This is war, and it's time to recognize that.

    The videos I’ve seen show blacks, and ONLY blacks, looting stores. Floyd’s legacy will be he gave his life so oppressed people who have no idea who he is got free TVs, booze and hair extensions.

    Obama was able to defuse the situation after Travon was killed.

    Trump is MIA in Florida.

    This is what happens when you elect a Drama Queen as President. Trump brings out the worst in all sides of everything.

    I seem to remember lots of riots under Obama. He started the whole precedent where it is ok to loot and burn with the BS that started in Baltimore. Now these turds think it is ok to loot and burn.

    What does Trump have to do with anything ? It is the idiot liberal leadership in these cities that are letting these people get out of control. Trump should be worrying about foreign affairs and federal issues, not BS thugs.

    I seem to remember businesses burning in Ferguson during the Obama administration. Why didn't he defuse that situation? Was he "MIA" as well? Or do you just like playing the part of the hypocrite?

    Ah so. Another liberal attempt to blame Trump and ignore the liberal Politicians that run the inner cities where the police conduct occurs. Your people run these cites and when the dust settles liberals will own the blame.

    Obama "was able to difuse the situation". ROFL, no, during the Dallas shootings, he stood there stammering with a speech while Dallas leo's were shot and killed.

    They prefer to forget what happened in the 8 year Obama term, we've never forgotten a single incident as it became one of the worst domestic presidencies ever. And while the democrat mayor/governors think they're reduplicating it, the problem is Trump's never said anything like 'If he were my kid."

    What an independent/conservative sees, is the same thing we saw in Ferguson, St. Bernardo and Orlando that led us to support Trump.

    People will be looking back at the mediocre Obama years as "the good old days" when compared to to the last year of Trump.
    Higher unemployment. Skyrocketing debt. Riots. Plague. Toilet paper shortages. Meat shortages. Trade Wars. Trump has been bad luck for America. Elect a clown and you get a circus.

    Well played, lad. Well played. No rebuttals here, we've got crap we need to resolve, ideally with as much peace as possible but knuckleheads in the streets are continuing to threaten innocents.
