Joe gets twisted over his words more often. 

Which is a symptom of a stutterer....and not a symptom(necessarily)of mental decline.

Sure...Of course it is.

Trump's a damn liar, part 10348258:

 

 

Also, Trump chose to not denounce the Kenosha shooter or the roving gangs of Trump supporters riding around in caravans shooting people with paintballs today when asked.

 

He's happy with the violence. He thinks it helps him.

Who'd have ever thought we'd be seeing this in America and the president would turn a blind eye?

Good lord...that is what Portland looks like now.

who says the russians aren't playing both sides on facebook?   they are laughing at how easy it is to pit americans against each other.     and trump is loving it.

I'm done with logic and numbers. Gut feeling is that Trump has the same legitimate sleeper cell working in his favor that he did in 2016: the people who don't talk to pollsters because they typically don't vote, and the people who lie to pollsters because they'd rather not admit their own racism. They're not going to digest a lot of analysis and nuance. They see rioting in the street and decide to rally around law & order.  It's how we got the hugely disliked Richard Nixon and why Trump will likely get reelected. 

My fear as well

The place you start with on this topic though is that both parties have the ability to capitalize on the violence and rioting in the streets. If Democrats don't denounce the rioting and destruction, how does that play for residents of the city whose metro area is being burned?

 

Without bringing all possible nuance into the equation, which rhetoric logically plays better at election time?

This is a really good point.

Hey @BigRedBuster - you'll notice that these overt statements have just started coming from Biden in the last few days - not in the last couple of months (generally speaking).

 

His team has realized that it wasn't playing to be tepid.

Omg....Trump couldn’t figure out what to say. He’s failing.

This is from May. 

 

"Protesting such brutality is right and necessary. It’s an utterly American response,” he said. “But burning down communities and needless destruction is not. Violence that endangers lives is not. Violence that guts and shutters businesses that serve the community is not.”

 

Biden has been consistent through this entire thing. He has been supportive of everyone's right to protest, but against rioting.

I agree.  He is.
