(38,187 posts)The ones doing the trashing and looting and arson and vandalism are agent provocateurs who came in later, closer to nightfall. Check out CNN's tweets on it tonight. Almost all of the replies are pro-Trump people reveling in what the agent provocateurs did earlier at CNN.
I cannot believe so many on DU are falling for it.
