Not really. You know what you are doing.

He didn't take the bait, they wanted a 24/7 news cycle of "muh he's a dictator", and after he is reelected all bets are off.

It's not trump's problem. Mayors and governors want the riots to continue. Those mayors and governors were locally elected by the residents of those Cities and states. So those cities and states got what they voted for.

Trump has been doing what he should do.. he has been offering federal aid, but a lot of governors have wiped their asses with trump's offer.

This includes the media. Was reported on FOX that the riots have cost insurance companies one billion dollars so far. There's definitely more damage than that. A 25,000 dollar cap on policies ain't doodly for a business that has been destroyed. Trump has caught hell for lack of leadership on the virus and the fires from the left and from the media but nothing about the riots. I hope he brings this up in the debate.

On the Republican side I'd thought at least a handful of them would have been urging Trump to do something based on constituents back home telling them to tell Trump enough is enough.

It's perplexing to say the least.


Because he is a conservative and believes in states rights???

because policing is a local and state issue unless they are breaking federal statues which the feds have been investigating and prosecuting?? :dunno:

why would trump do something about a local issue, something that the federal government has no jurisdiction over, when the local and state government have refused help?

either you want a conservative or you dont. If we are talking politics, the worst thing he could do would be to send in the National Guard, as it would just add legitimacy to the cries of him being a dictator. If he plays it like he has, he can simply say that he believes in limited federal powers and support states rights and that it is a local and state issue.

i understand your question now...

the left isn't because they want him to, and saying so would negate their ability to blast him if he actually does send in troops

the right isnt because states rights and they understand the constitution.

One of the globalists’ true motives is to get Trump to set the precedent, so that they can do it to the conservatives when they get power.


Wouldn't the conservatives actually have to riot for them to be able to do it to them?

So, basically you thought this sounded really good but it turns out that you don't know the law.

Gotcha....

If Trump goes in, without permission from the state or cities, then he WILL BE IMPEACHED, and some circuit judge would probably block his order.

You know this, why ask the silly question?

I bet there's a lot that is perplexing to you. Tell me, are you advocating for Trump to take over the entire government of shithole democrat states, or just law enforcement?
