Because protests are the problem in Trump's view, NOT the killing of black people. Trump is NOT a rational leader and most of the world recognizes this.

Violent protests and disorder and looting  are indeed a problem , not sure how anyone could deny that

Well, with 100,000+ dead Americans from the coronavirus under his failing watch, he already ought to be a shoo-in!  That kind of success, you just can't argue with...

It's kind of like that year Woodstock was held in the midst of a global pandemic. I, myselfwas born in the midst of a global pandemic that happened to target infants.

82 shot, 19 fatally, over Chicago’s most violent weekend of 2020. 

Nothing to do with George Floyd, they just like shooting each other in this city.

Black on black crimes, not a white copper in sight.

The horrible truth is deemed racist by some people.

The Police are there to protect people though , that's the difference

First off, "libs" is a derogatory, loaded term that is borderline trolling. Second, as of this date, all violent rioters, NOT peaceful protesters, who have been arrested have been outsiders hired to incite trouble and looting. When the protesters were white and carrying long arms into state capitols, Trump cheered them on. When they are black or supporting black lives matter, Trump wants to attack them with the military. If you don't see that as an absolute racist reaction, well . . .

Trump is threatening to use the military to stop the violent disorder , nothing to do with race .

Have there been similar mass riot predominantly by Whites that Trump hasn't threatened to use the military ?

Who hired those protestors to riot ?

A little of the left and a little of the right.

"Federal law enforcement officials tell CNN they are aware of organized groups who are seeking to carry out the property destruction and violence, using the cover of the legitimate protests in Minneapolis and elsewhere. Those domestic extremist groups include anarchists, anti-government groups often associated with far-right extremists and white supremacy causes, and far-left extremists who identify with anti-fascist ideology. "

More Journalists Injured Covering George Floyd Protests

By The Associated Press

May 31, 2020

  • LOS ANGELES — The first time officers shot rubber bullets at MSNBC host Ali Velshi and his crew Saturday night in Minneapolis, he was willing to believe that the officials didn’t know they were press. The second time, Velshi said, they knew and shot anyway.

“We put our hands up and yelled, ‘We’re media!’” Velshi said. “They responded, ‘We don’t care!’ and they opened fire a second time.”

More and more proof right wing supremacists are at least partially behind this.

Nobody is hiring anyone.

Yes, but you stated that

"all violent rioters, NOT peaceful protesters, who have been arrested have been outsiders hired to incite trouble and looting."

   and you like above doesn't show that .

There are left extremists as well. It's all sickening, and by the posts defending this as a non-racist protest, it just shows how absolutely divided this whole issue has become.

This is ALL about race. As I just posted, many MAGA whites entered a state capitol building with long arms threatening that government and Trump cheered them on. Now that blacks and people who support blacks are protesting (around the world I might add) Trump is threatening military force against US citizens. If you can't see that as a racist situation, maybe you need to re-evaluate some things.

Was there riots, violence and looting during the state capitol protests ?

What is the possibility that elements of the right wing, basically hijacked the protests, and turned them violent, which then encouraged the rampant looting and rioting. It would not take much with the powder keg environment, the anger towards law enforcement that already existed throughout the US, and the graphic Floyd murder caught on video. The more I consider the possibility, the more it makes sense. It feeds right into trumps agenda. Distract from a massive Covid failure, and a stagnant, do nothing presidency at this point, and make himself look strong and decisive. Could have been sponsored by elements from within the administration, to any of the national security agencies, even the CIA or NSA. Who knows? The protests sure started out peaceful, and quickly degenerated.

 

Makes one wonder. These days in America, I believe anything like this kind of thing is possible. It is then so easy to blame the black man, the people of color, the poor and the others. By casting blame, they do not attempt to fix anything, address the inherent issues, discuss the inherent issues, or make lives better. 

 

Is there anything more cynical, than Trump using force to disperse protestors in front of the White House, to walk across the street to a church, and hold up a bible? As if he was a man of God? Wonders never cease. 

You’re half right, replace right wing with antifa and hey presto.

Clearly many infiltrators amongst the looters already identified as the antifa anarchists.

The media trying desperately to hide this fact under the carpet.
