actually like this discussion.

Portland, taking a police station in Seattle, etc. etc. They hated Trump and Trump antagonized them for 4 years. Now the guys that loved Trump and hated people for hating trump are at it. Sadly, it's just the beginning of it from them, and sadly, we shouldn't be surprised.

Trump is the common denominator in all this. He angers the left and fuels the rights. He's helped Extremism take over US politics.

Another big problem is it's only really being condemned by media outlets who don't agree with the side that's doing it. It needs to be condemned by all of them. Rioters are rioters. They're all criminals.
 
Not on them. Their leadership let them down massively. Respect to the guy who came in swinging against 1000 lunatics. Takes guts.

Oh 100% they have been hung out to dry there. Plus in hindsight their lives were needlessly put in danger because white people/Trump fans arnt deemed as violent, which is incredible to anyone who watches or listens to them.

Most common theme running through his cult besides racism, a similar appearance and distinct lack of intelligence is the amount of anger and agression that seems to consume them. Its pure hatred
 
FFS don't resign. Kick the bum out of office!!
Its probably why they are all resigning.

They don't want to stand up to him. They probably know what is expected of them if the 25th amendment is used.

He hired a bunch of yes men and women. It seems strange all of the crap he has pulled and this is their line. They already have lost face so there is nothing they can save about thier reputation by quitting now.
 
Interesting letter sent by Defense secretaries' letter warning Trump was signed by ... Trump planned to use the military tp oversee a re-run of the election.

"Edelman also said comments made by former national security adviser Michael Flynn about the possibility of Trump invoking martial law to rerun the election in battleground states raised concerns.

In a Newsmax interview in mid-December, Flynn detailed what he considered Trump's military options. While Flynn claimed he was not advocating for these options to be exercised, and that constitutional processes must be followed, just weeks earlier he tweeted an organization's press release calling for "limited martial law" to hold a new election".
 
I cannot believe there are 70 million people in America like the berks we've seen at the Capitol. If there are then the world is in big trouble.

So many of Trump's voters must have held their breath while putting an X next to his name - possibly because the value of their house went up by a few thousand dollars in the last four years or their workplace expanded and their salary increased.

The economy is, after all, what it's about.
 
You’re probably right in general Sass, but I was watching CNN last night when Cuomo (who I generally find obnoxious), was asking one of the CNN field reporters who was on the ground yesterday and during BLM to confirm exactly that, and she basically said the police response was similar and that she saw tear gassed and bloodied rioters yesterday in the same fashion as elsewhere. The main difference she said she saw was that the people yesterday couldn’t believe the cops would do that to them. I’ll have to listen to your NPR link when I have some free time later today.

For me right now the unbelievable thing was how unprepared police were for something entirely predictable.
Then that guy is lying. They've said, repeatedly, there was nothing similar between the two responses.
