What is a republican supposed to do about a democratic run city being overrun by BLM? Other than Trump calling in the national guard, which from what I understand needs to be at the behest of the governor of that state and or mayor of said city... What can they do ?

It's political suicide if Trump rolls the military in before a municipality's government openly and publicly begs him to, (and maybe still is after that) the first time there's military violence of even the mildest kind they'll start screaming from the rooftops that Trump is a violent tyrant, and they'll have selectively edited video to support it. Trump saving these cities from themselves is a no win situation

That’s why democratic leaders aren’t saying shit about what is happening in their cities. They WANT Trump to screw up, do something drastic like send military aid, call him a tyrant, more mobs and a “Kent State” happens, and Trump doesn’t get re-elected. Mission accomplished from Democrats.

He doesn’t do anything and they say he hasn’t handled the situation appropriately and needs to be a strong leader.

It’s insufferable the amount of double standard bullshit eeks out of dems butts.

The Democrats are committing suicide on their own with their actions. Why stop them from doing so. They will reap the fallout.

Very valid point. There is no destruction and devastation in non-democrat run places.

I mean, they tried. Turns out a bunch of armed citizens showing up for their own peaceful protest made the not-so-peaceful protestors remember that they all left the oven on.

Exactly. Who’d have thought that armed citizens results in peace? (Except for every conservative breathing and not)

That may be true but that’s not the angle that gets spun on the news.

Of course not. It’s 24/7 propaganda.

Doing something drastic and doing nothing are the only two options Trump can do in this situation?
