Yes I do... It stands with all them poor business owners who have had their livelihood destroyed - for many literally a life's work - Gone at the hands of these vandals. I feel for that black mother weeping in what's left of her neighborhood grocery store, wondering where the hell she is going to get food for her kids. I am sorry for the folks caught in front of that mob of malcontents who will never come home, or will live the rest of their lives with dire consequences.
That's who will be saved by a good ol fashioned ass-kicking, paying it forward.
Well, the argument from the Trump-can-do-no-wrong people on this forum is that this was a victory for Trump showing Americans how bad liberal Dems can make of a situation.
The Dems (Durkan and Inslee) certainly created a catastrophe, but sitting back and watching it happen didn't help Trump. In fact, he slid in the polls.
Could it be that many people were irritated with his bluster but no action, and it is now reflected in his worse polling?
There are things the prez can do in these types of situations: he can to the politically expedient thing, or he can do the right thing....which would have been to crush the rioters and anarchists.
Many people's civil rights were violated by CHOP/CHAZ, with the full assent of the mayor of Seattle and the gov. of the state of Washington.
When that happens, the president of the U.S. doesn't have to be invited in, he has to act forcefully.
Trump didn't do that. To say they'd blame him if people were injured/killed by fed. forces denies the reality that he will be heavily criticized by the lefties no matter what he does.
I'm with you....skulls should have been cracked and charges brought against the mayor and the gov. for okaying the whole disaster.
