Wow not commenting on the exact nature but if you told me that there was an explosive thrown in the CNN HQ during a riot even a few weeks ago I think we could all agree who we thought it would be.

LMAO

Remind me why there are some red avatars who say Sanchez is a good person?

Because I'm a forum institution and you're just a passer-through.

CNN lied about the protests and subsequently got stormed by the mob they whipped into a frenzy. That's called irony, something that a humorless husk of a poster like you wouldn't understand.

Ah yes CNN caused these riots and not a cop crushing a unarmed black guys neck 🙄

Grassroots and Higgins are going full tiki torch mode I see

Yeah these riots are gonna deliver Trump his re-election just like the King riots helped Bush 41 get re... oh wait. Everyone saying this is gonna be like Nixon in 68 ignore the key difference that Nixon was the candidate for president not the incumbent. Hell if anyone is Nixon here it’s Biden as the former Vice President of the previous administration running on a nostalgia and return to normalcy platform

Failed leadership

Trump calling himself “law and order” while explosions are heard in the background is about as bad optics as one could

Red meat for the midwest suburbs.

Polls suggest he's losing ground because of the protests. He's failing.

You guys need a life beyond polling lol

These are striking visuals.

If you’re going to call something a political winner and polling says otherwise then of course it will be mentioned on a political forum. Also with all due respect you seem to be interpreting how suburbs will react to this through your personal bias and your kinda a massive racist with a lust authoritarian governance so your view might be skewed here

Trust me, if you heard half of what I've heard from Cleveland/Akron 20-40 yr olds, mostly women, they'd be banned for "hatefulness".

It's not playing well. Perhaps with college kids and African Americans.

Considering how far to the right Ohio is now to the other rust belt states let alone the nation that doesn’t really say much

Trump's speech was great. No mercy for rioters and looters. Trump's bringing me (and many other pubs) home with these remarks.

Yep. Today is the day Trump stepped up to the plate. After completely losing me for the last three months, I am cautiously teetering back toward him again. He still seems a bit weak, but I would be extremely confident if he put someone dependable like Tom Cotton in charge of the response since he is a bit too lazy.

So, he threatens to violate posse comitatus to use military force against American citizens, and that's what brings you back to the fold?

They were always going to go back to the fold. They just needed the excuse

The video from Buffalo is just disheartening
