Let these protests continue vs a strong show of force?

Most of these states are red in the rural areas so I think if this mayhem continues in these urban areas...which are always blue...that it hurts the Dems during election time. If we can peel away just a fraction of a percentage in swing states due to this mayhem then it helps Trump in November. Lawlessness doesn’t play well with the suburbs.

Let them eat their own.

Am I wrong?

I am going to upvote this. I like the "eat their own philosophy".

It’s either that or CNN showing bodies in the street after the military starts swinging batons and shooting if necessary.

Yes you’re wrong.

I’ll never understand wanting the president to focus on a campaign over the actual job you hired him for in the first place.

BTW: Protests are fine, and even encouraged. I don’t think that’s what you were speaking of though

Agreed. We don’t need to give them any martyrs.

Plus they’re so fricking crazy it has to scare normal people...that I sincerely hope are still out there and want o go about their daily lives.

Cities, yes, DC, no. They need to move that shite out of the nation’s capital.

These are local law enforcement issues. How damning is it to have Dem run cities fall into chaos?

Also, do we really want the president deploying the military? This smells like a trap.

bullshite, Trump said if they don’t stop it, he would.

If Trump doesn’t do anything, he is not only being as weak as the Democrats, he is going back on a promise.

You think people like someone who could stop it but chose not to in order to win political points? bullshite. People respect strength, not acting like a politician, which is what Trump is doing.

Literally every politician does this. Obama even campaigned for others while he was president. It's not unique to Trump, not even close.

Do you want the Federal government to have law enforcement authority over cities?

That’s not a conservative position.

Then Trump shouldn’t have said he would solve it. He is the one who made the promise. If he doesn’t do anything, people are not going to reward him for empty promises.

Him repeatedly saying that was fricking stupid.

However, other than DC what cities are dealing with rioters? Seattle is clearing out the CHAZ after their summer of love turned into the South Side.

If after what you have seen or heard regarding these animals hasn't by now shown you what they are you probably aren't going to get it. Or you just don't want to. ( not meaning you personally) I think that we will soon be entering a phase of diminishing returns in regards to not stopping it. People have said: Look at those criminals. Soon they we be saying: Why hasn't/didn't anyone stopped/stop this? And that anyone will be Trump.Trump could come out of this looking weak and when he says "Law and Order" people will shrug and say sarcastically "Yea right."

We've proven the point. Most people have woken up to the fact that the left is a very very aggressive form of cancer. It's time for some intense chemo to fix it before it grows and destroys everything.

If you wait any longer to treat it, you'll look weak and lose the support of your base while emboldening the marxists.

I agree. There’s about 5 months yet to November - plenty of time for more to be destroyed.

While seeing these communists wreck havoc every night may only help further ensure a GOB re-election, at what cost once it is said and done? Sure I suppose things can be replaced but it won’t be the originals and many won’t be replaced at all - gone forever.
“Pyrrhic Victory” is the term that starts to come to my mind.

I dont think GOB would lose support by “doing what the mayors and governors won’t do if necessary”. I actually think in spite of the predictable hand-wringing and screams of “dictator” by the opposition-vested MSM, you’d see a groundswell of re-energized support for Trump.
