Monday: the GOP/Trump/Putin are going to make the riots a red-state/blue-state thing.

Trump's losing (so far) badly, and they are watching the violence unfold, and working out how to make this all a political advantage.
They don't care about the injuries or the property loss. They only care about winning in November.

And remember, they always react WAY over. So expect some crazy ass laws that will affect our lives and the upcoming election.

Economic collapse and social unrest don't favor the incumbent 99.99% of the time, especially when that person is a failed steak salesman and reality tv game show host.

What's happening now hurts Trump.

That's why he's in hiding.

Expect the Kremlin to cut ties with him by the end of September.

And walking in protest with the people will cause him to demand they stop doing this or face firings, and then he'll demand they incite violence to satisfy his disturbing ego. He'll also have Barr use this to go after opponents , and groups that support them , or just like putin does it in russia.
