Statue removal is a winner for the Republican Party

And by winner, I mean if the democrats keep pushing this, the Republicans win.
From a purely political standpoint, disregarding the debate over whether it's right or wrong, rioting in the streets and destruction of public property -- while the media approves and cheers it on -- is a complete turn off for most Americans.
So, keep it up. I hope to see statues torn down from Oxnard to Okeechobee, preferably by masked anarchists with Kill Whitey signs.

I agree. This is very telling as just how radical the left has become. It also leaves a reminder that will seen all over America on a daily basis by way of empty pedestals in public locations.

So is Trump up or down after today?
I say up.
I say up.

That pig climbing up to tie the rope on the statue at Duke was not a good look for them

His base is behind him more than ever after today so IMO he is winning bigly

We may as well put up statues of King George III if we are going to honor American enemies.

I don't think having incidents like these that expose assholes like Richard Spencer are really helping the Republican Party, especially when a guy injures 19 people, kills 1 of them, and it results in 3 deaths total.
If we were Dothraki, then they wouldn't consider this a dull affair, but we're Americans and anyone should be able to speak their mind without fear of violence and death.

It's as stupid as Confederate memorials.
If the alt-right cared about their image then they would shift their focus to Seattle. But they're too focused crying about "muh herituj!".

I'm not discussing right or wrong. Im asking who benefits politically?
I say Republicans, especially Trump, will come out like bandits on this issue.
Your average voter is disgusted by lawlessness and tearing down statues is a complete turnoff.
The people put off by this are quiet and won't talk about it. Probably won't even participate in polls.
But they vote.

None of this shite matters. At the end of the day, it will come down to the Democrats choosing a formidable opponent. If they come out with another crooked Hillary, then Trump wins.

No one on their bench can beat Trump.
Their problem is they have boxed themselves in a corner with identity politics. Biden might could win, but they won't accept a white man.
They hated Kaine even as the VP.

I wouldn't get that confident. Trump did lose the popular vote after all. Beating crooked Hillary was one thing. The Democrats have 3 years to groom someone who doesn't have ethic issues.

Maybe the economy will boom to the point that these basement dwellers will finally become qualified for some type of employment.

All this statue destroying, BLM, ANTIFA, etc... is just deflection from failed liberal social policy over the past 60 years.
Anyone that believes black culture will right itself once all the statues are gone is an idiot.
They'll continue to kill each other, continue to have 70% of births out of marriage, continue high dropout rates and find someone or something else to blame.
Wonder what it will be like when blacks finally realize that most of the fault, outside themselves, lies with white liberals that want to keep them on the dem plantation?

Republicans may never win the popukar vote again.
Who cares? It's irrelevant.
