    Democrats only, have voted to impeach President Trump. Any intelligent person can see it is a total political attempt at a coup. They are trying to overturn the results of the 2016 election.

    But now----------------------have you noticed what DIDNT happen. Republicans are NOT blocking streets. Republicans are NOT rioting in the streets. Republican are NOT looting stores. Republican are NOT setting fires to buildings.

    Sure a lot different than when democrats have their underlovelies in a wad isnt it?????

    That's because terrorism, violence and intimidation is ingrained in the Democrat party.

    Whether it be mobbing and chasing out republicans from restaurants, shooting Republican senators, threatening friends and staff of the president with jail time or beating up those who wear a MAGA hat. The democrat party leadership and democrat congressmen and women dont see a problem with this because they innately align with terrorism.

    That's because all the republicans who know what's going on know that trump is guilty.

    The people who support Trump have jobs so they are too busy. These folks are Republicans and Democrats who voted for Trump and are waiting for 2020.

    Notice that the leftist allied Mainstream Media is very carefully NOT pointing out that particular difference to the nation? But then again to be fair, any time foam at the brain pan leftist radicals riot and poop on cop cars that same MSM manage to somehow blame it all on the Right; as if it's not actually unhinged leftists agitators doing the rioting and cop cars pooping.

    And every democrat knows that denial and reversal of charges is the way to dodge the facts. Guess what? That is no longer given a shred of cred; using that tactic just reveals the level of character values the left has sunken to.

    The dems have done the equivalent of shatting themselves in the congressional hall, and complaining they smell a Trump-fart. It's long past being funny to anyone else.

    Republicans don't riot, they just threaten all out civil war if Trump is booted out of office. Y'all are hilarious.

    Are you seriously asking why didn’t cities which are democratic strongholds didn’t have protests for Trumps impeachment? They probably did, but at who cares size.

    Put simply BS!!!!!

    Everyone with any intelligence at all know that it is an attempted coup. Democrats simply dont want to accept the collective judgement of the people, and abide by the law from the 2016 election. "Her turn" Hillary LOST fair and square, get over it, be and adult, move on!!!!

    If you do a little research on "democrat run cities", it's not pretty. While places like San Francisco (AKA Pelosiville) are making headlines with sidewalk poop and drug needles as well as budget issues and the nations highest rent, there are a host of cities is serious states of deterioration and financial chaos- under democratic management. Here's an article from Investors Business Daily:

    How Decades Of Democratic Rule Ruined Some Of Our Finest Cities

    [​IMG]

    • 02:53 PM ET 03/09/2016

    Urban Blight: A few days ago, filmmaker Michael Moore tweeted, “Flint has voted for Dems for 84 straight yrs” and wanted to know, “What did it get us?” He’s actually on to something.


    Don’t drink the water in Flint, Mich. Federal and state officials botched a water supply switch there and ended up contaminating the city’s drinking water with lead. It’s a sad and infuriating story that has gone on far too long. It’s not quite a humanitarian crisis -- blessedly, we don’t see many of those in this country -- but it is a mess.


    Of course blame has been liberally tossed around. Republican Gov. Rick Snyder has been sued. Moore wants him arrested. (Obviously there's a limit to Moore's ability to think clearly, and he reached it with his Flint tweet.) Some are convinced that the private sector is the villain, because, after all, isn’t it always? The loopy left even says that the Koch brothers are at fault.


    But let’s backtrack to Moore’s tweet. Flint is indeed a Democratic Party bastion. Don’t its decades of Democratic dominance deserve some of the blame? It’s the city’s "Democratic rulers," Reason magazine’s Robby Soave reminds us, who have "robbed city residents blind to pad the pockets of public sector unions." They’ve also been in charge as Flint has become one the country’s poorest cities (the second poorest, says the Census Bureau, for a city of its size), and a haven for criminals -- it’s the most dangerous city in America, according to Business Insider.


    Flint is not alone, though. America is awash with troubled, dysfunctional cities that have been electing Democratic mayors for decades.


    • Detroit last elected a Republican mayor in 1957. It is now the model of urban failure -- it’s recognized more for its poverty, crime, rot and bankruptcy than the great cars that it turned out into the early 1970s. It is the poorest big city in the nation, with almost 40% of the population living below the poverty line. The website Law Street actually ranks Detroit ahead of Flint as the country's most dangerous city. Either way, it’s clear that both cities have institutionalized crime problems.

    Detroit is also a pit of political corruption. Just in recent years, one mayor, Kwame Kilpatrick, was convicted of corruption and sent to federal prison for 28 years, while building inspectors have been indicted on federal felony bribery charges and a former city council member was investigated in a bribery and kickback scandal.


    • Chicago’s last GOP mayor was elected in 1927. The nation’s third-largest city is home to some of the worst inner-city violence imaginable. More than 2,300 people were shot there last year, and nearly 400 lost their lives to homicides.

    Its finances are just as grim. "Chicago is so broke," IBD contributor Stephen Moore explained months ago, "that its bonds are junk status, and Mayor Rahm Emanuel had to go hat in hand last week to the state capital, Springfield, for bailout money to pay the bills." Things have been rotten enough, Moore said, to send "a record number of people ... fleeing Cook County, home to Chicago." Only a little more than half of the city's pension liabilities are funded.


    • St. Louis has been electing Democratic mayors since 1949. The Gateway to the West has become the gateway for crime. Law Street says that it’s the fourth most dangerous city in the country, Forbes says it’s the second. It had the sixth-highest poverty rate among big cities in 2014.
    • The last GOP mayor of Philadelphia left office in 1952. A few years ago, Moore identified it as a favorite to follow Detroit into bankruptcy.
    • Both Baltimore and Oakland had Republican mayors as late as the 1960s. In the era of Democratic rule, both are now more well known for their crime and poverty problems than for their charm and character.
    • Newark, N.J., hasn't had a GOP mayor in more than a century. It was ranked as the fifth-worst city to live in in 2015. Detroit, of course, was first.

    When Democrats are in control, cities tend to go soft on crime, reward cronies with public funds, establish hostile business environments, heavily tax the most productive citizens and set up fat pensions for their union friends. Simply put, theirs is a Blue State blueprint for disaster.

    I read like half of that before realizing this is completely off topic. I don’t care about how good the cities are run or anything like that. We just care about why republicans aren’t threatening to riot if there are impeachment’s. I guess thanks for proving my point but still?

    A simple indication of the difference between republicans and democrats is the fact republicans do not have a riot organization like ANTIFA. It is the modern day KKK. Both created by democrats.

    sadly for you, Trump did this, no denying it, and he was impeached over it

    no democrat thinks Trump will be removed from office, so your argument falls flat on it's face

    Trump only has himself to blame for being impeached

    The point is the contrast, between what is and is not happening. Where liberals/democrats manage, bad usually outweighs good- and in some places the article highlights, that margin is very wide.
    Where conservatives/republicans manage, the reverse is true. The subject..... what does and does not happen and why. Not off-topic unless you don't want to hear it.

    The OP is about rioting, not city mismanagement. The point is the contrast yes, the contrast between Republicans and Democrats threatening to riot in particular locations, not about who runs their city better. Think why what you said makes no sense given the OP. Impeachment is a federal issue, not a local one. Why would someone riot over impeachment because they don't have clean drinking water or there's crime? It's a reduction to absurdity in of itself. Nice try though.

    People who claimbyhatbthis was strctly pqtisan are ether blind or stupid or both. The Democrat leaders made it a point to oppose impeachment without evidence and only opened impeachment inquiries once evidence was uncovered.

    The Republicans on the other hand don't care if trump is proven to have committed treason. For them it's about controlling then white house. They don't care about guilt or innocence. they will always put party before the law and the country.

    The OP is about- Bad Behavior. About things that cause rioting, decay, social breakdown. All of which- including rioting- are personal attitude and value issues. Things such as you town going to hell because those who manage it do a miserable job, and the resentment and contagious bad attitudes that cultivates in the people who live in such messes result in riots. The alternative view is that all of those people who riot are just immature jackasses doing what such creatures do.

    Think hard on that. We will hope you can make the connection between people who make conditions worse for others, who then become hostile and violent in resentment.

    Yeah okay there that's a stretch to believe. I know the connection, and this theory of yours misses out on an important part-riots are not spontaneous. They come from people with grievances against the government who use political violence as a means of gaining political support. Local leaders see reasons to riot so they do so. They're targeted. They're not the result of bad behavior so much as political gain. Poor people don't riot, people who can afford to riot do. So your theory makes no sense because we're looking at why the GOP hasn't rioted. If anything, they should be more likely to riot if what you're saying is true. Yet we don't see that, which means either "morals" because we all know the GOP would never have members in its ranks that advocate for violence or more likely, the GOP aren't strong enough to even riot in these cities.

    Or, it could be that you just don't see anything that doesn't t support what you say you believe. We are seeing of that these days, and it's doing nothing but muddying the water and making things worse.
