Looting, rioting. We have statues of fricking Christopher Columbus being vandalized and thrown in a Lake.

“Start looting, we start shooting”

Nope

“But, but he’ll be labeled a racist in the middle of an election year”

Yeah. So? He’s already labeled a racist by those that would say it, and he’d be labeled a hero by those that support him.

He’s not upholding the will of his constituents. There is no argument to the contrary. Why?

Why aren’t the states requesting federal assistance?

Pesky little thing called the constitution. Unless requested by the mayor's or governors, he can't mobilize the NG. Wtf you want him to do?

Plus it's better for him to not squash it, the Dems are shitting the bed all over.

Welcome to Civics class. Today we are learning about the difference of power between federal, state, and local government. Take out your text book and turn to page 69.

Pure deflection. He’s not required to wait for that. He can declare a national state of emergency and deploy the military.

Why is he doing nothing but tapping on Twitter?

He should definitely send in troops to start mowing down citizens by the handful.

The locals apparently love this. It's what they vote for. If they want change, it's at the ballot box.

what’s wrong with states making the request ?
We are a nation of states, man.

States can handle this ...until they can’t.

Dunno about you, but if my opposition is shitting the bed I'm not hiring maids to clean their mess up.

Let these deep blue counties and states find out how retarded their ideologies are.

As expected, massive deflection ITT

Anybody care to answer WHY he’s not doing anything? The better question is WHY aren’t you pissed about it? It makes no sense.

He's doing exactly what he should be doing, there's those on the left who have literally said they want him to shut the frick up, and other on the left who are begging him to not "sit on his hands." He knows it's a lose lose

True.

He said "When the looting starts, the shooting starts".

Completely different.
