That's the deviousness of the Left. They did all their dirty work behind the scenes, hired devoted meth head Marxists as their stormtroopers to instigate 'change' in the streets and then told their installed bureaucratic operatives to stand down.

And under the guise of civility and fair play, the GOPe simply allowed it to happen, unchecked.
