General John Kelly: "He said that, in his opinion, Mr. Trump met the definition of a fascist, would govern like a dictator if allowed, and had no understanding of the Constitution or the concept of rule of law."

Who's to blame now, Donnie?
Trump poured gasoline on an escalating situation in Minneapolis by tweeting "When the looting starts; the shooting starts."
But he forgot how he reacted to the riots in Ferguson, Missouri, six years ago, and who he blamed for the response.
Trump is the POTUS now. According to his logic, the mess is all his fault.
Trump Previously Blamed 'Weak Leadership' in Washington for Ferguson Riots and Looting in 2014
President Donald Trump blamed "weak leadership" in Washington for the outbreak of rioting and looting in Ferguson, Missouri, six years ago. Trump, now faced with escalating protests in Minneapolis, was repeatedly critical of the Obama administration's handling of the Ferguson riots in August 2014 which were in response to the police shooting of Michael Brown, an unarmed black teenager. At the time, Trump said other countries were laughing at the government's handling of the unrest.

Dotard donnie NEVER accepts responsibility. But he ALWAYS is quick to find someone else to blame. Whittle donnie never learned one is responsible for their actions or the influence their words carry when in positions of authority and power. He takes credit for the good (even when he deseves none) and passes the buck to a fall guy when he fails. Had Dotard donnie worked for me when I was managing he might have lasted 90 days before I fired him. But I doubt it. donnie is a loser. In ALL THINGS THAT REALLY MATTER.
Violence Leads to More Violence. To protest injustice is one thing. It is good and right. To burn the property of others, to loot and destroy buildings, to create chaos and destruction of businesses leading to job losses, HOW DOES THAT SERVE ANYONES PURPOSE? HOW DO ACTIVITIES LIKE THAT HEAL WOUNDS? CAN SOMEONE, ANYONE, ANSWER THOSE SIMPLE QUESTIONS?
Wow Les that was a cohesive statement that I agree with.
I don't know anyone who thinks what happened was right and everyone has a right to protest demanding justice. The sentiment of the public will change as they see more rioting and looting. I saw in Chicago where the protest was not close but teens were breaking windows and stealing. Most of the businesses were small businesses and many were minority owned and will now have to close for good. Every life matter.
And yes Ms Shaw looting is from all races and so is the rioting and although you have disdain for small businesses these to take peoples lives.
