cities were burned/people were violently attacked because people who didnt obey the law/resisted arrest, or attacked an officer were dealt with..i dont see why that would be controversial?

granted i read up on alot of these cases, and i don't believe death should have been the outcome for any of these cases (especially the floyd case). But you swear people acted as if police just played eeny meeny miney moe and started attacking civilians out of sheer spite or racism.

Normally I agree with this sentiment. But I feel we'd have chaos like we haven't seen in, well, perhaps ever, if something like this was to happen.

this is the problem though, these "leaders" just allowed it to happen. Maybe if the mayors cracked down on this stuff right off the bat, it would have never happened. its like a cancerous tumor, sure we could treat it, or we can just let it grow..

You have no idea what's about to be released on them.

Lololol! This guy, smh. Has us waiting again. This dude has PTSD or something. A former buddy of mine is like this. He was telling me Tom Hanks and his wife were killed by elites, and I just needed to wait to hear about it. This is QAnnon handbook crap.

Antifa isn't an organization, its a hodgepodge of people with a similar goal of halting fascism. Theres no leader, rank, or strategic plan. You can't cease an idea to exist, you dork.

If antifa goes anywhere, its because they feel there isn't a need once the fascists leave the White house.

Which happens in January.

Fascism (noun)
a governmental system led by a dictator having complete power, forcibly suppressing opposition and criticism, regimenting all industry, commerce, etc., and emphasizing an aggressive nationalism and often racism.

Who does THAT sound like? Any answer outside of Trump would be factually incorrect.

He could issue the order, sure. But this issue has already been discussed by military leaders.

The military is not going to decide this election. They have already made it clear that this isn't part of their role. The military will stay neutral. Anything Trump says to the contrary will be disregarded.

They know they can legally disobey an order to interfere in the election process. That's exactly what they will do and Trump knows it.

This is true, but it is the job of law enforcement, not the military.

My main point is he didn’t use the insurrection act then so how could he now?

i never meant this in the election sense, i meant so in the sense of the video that the canadian fella posted about portland chasing down cops and breaking their back windows and such.

unfortunately because of "systemic racism"

law enforcement are not able to do their jobs properly now, their hands are tied. I think the military wouldn't have the same pressure or worries of handling things. And before someone cries racist at me, this has nothing to do with race, no one, race, gender, age, should have been allowed to do any of the things we witnessed over the summer.

why not? he's still the sitting president, clean up whatever else needs to be cleaned up before you leave in January. I think it would actually weigh favorably amongst voters should he run again in 2024. the people that hate him already do, so he'd have no votes to lose, only some to gain.

I know, right? I'll admit I got my biased definition from the deep state, highly liberal, socialist think tank known as....dictionary.com.

https://www.dictionary.com/browse/fascism

Here are more definitions:

Merrriam-Webster
1: a political philosophy, movement, or regime (such as that of the Fascisti) that exalts nation and often race above the individual and that stands for a centralized autocratic government headed by a dictatorial leader, severe economic and social regimentation, and forcible suppression of opposition
2: a tendency toward or actual exercise of strong autocratic or dictatorial control

Wikipedia
Fascism (/ˈfæʃɪzəm/) is a form of far-right, authoritarian ultranationalism characterized by dictatorial power, forcible suppression of opposition and strong regimentation of society and of the economy which came to prominence in early 20th-century Europe.

Somebody was speculating earlier today that Trump has no intention of a 2024 run, but he could benefit if people think he might run. The thought process is something along the lines of when the New York State Attorneys comes for him, and they will, he can say that charging him is interfering with his election chances in 2024.

And again, he can't use the military on US soil against Americans. There's just no way any of the Defense Dept is going to allow that. This was all made clear after he fired Defense Secretary Esper a while back.

This Insurrection Act nonsense is just that - nonsense.

A month left in the White House, what a crazy way to go out. Even his fanbase should balk at this idea.

But eff it right? When you paint 50% of the citizenry as the enemy, who cares about rules and norms.

Texas lawsuit has been denied by the Supreme Court. Alito & Thomas would grant motion for leave but would grant no other relief.

He can use it b/c of the election fraud.

Dammit. Really had high hopes this was going to overturn the election and change the face of America forever.

Maybe next time.

Three cheers to the dumb twats who filed it and backed it.

And the herd of believers holding out hope.

Sorry you're being sold fairy tales by our boy king and his court. Now is maybe a good time to stop sending the slush fund checks. The billionaire doesn't need help to fund his stupid causes.
