    IIRC, they went into Portland because of the Fed building, but were effectively kicked out by local entities. I don't see him storming into any cities these days. The mayors and governors have to make that call, right?

    I suppose, what he may be effectively saying is, once invited, they'll go in and stop the destruction activities in quick fashion. Although, where that all ends up is anyone's guess. Lots of crazies out there. Tinder boxes abound.

    How do we, outside of muting the page, make it so the videos don't automatically play when we view the pages here?

    I keep hearing the "fuck antifa fuck antifa" chant, whenever I open this tab.

    Not wanting to piss you off on this subject but they Rose City Antifa say they are members only and they have to approve joining. My cop neighbor said they are very organized. They are more than an idea, just like some organized cults. These are dirt bags that harassed my 14 year old granddaughter as she now recognizes their logo.

    It's the President that sets the tone but the governors and the mayors who have to clean up Trump's mess.
    But my point was that Trump was so ignorant that he didn]t realize that he couldn't clean up anything other than to make the mess in the first place.
    So why did he make the stupid statement that he was going to clean it up pronto in the first place?

    I see. This is all Trump's fault because he's set an incorrect tone.

    Must you take everything literally? It was what is known as a figure of expression. Yes, it includes setting a tone such as violence against those at his rallies who oppose him is good and he will hire lawyers to defend them. Or some of those White Suprpremacists carrying torches and chanting anti Jewish drivel are fine people. It involves telling police that it's okay to handle suspects in a rough manner. It also involves giving police equipment originally meant for the America's military. It involves not denouncing White Supremacists. And so on and so on and so on. This is stuff you, of all people, should be cognizant of.

    Somebody ask ABM how he thought his glorious leader did in the debate. Is he proud of his behavior?

    He's too busy arguing semantics over arbitrary bullshit, but I'll go ahead and answer on his behalf: "abject failure."

    NOW you understand the futility of trying to have a productive discussion with this individual. You are far more patient than I initially gave you credit for........
