#6  The irony is, the leftist Dems will use this as a campaign slogan: "We stopped the riots" and "President Trump did nothing to stop (prevent) this".

#4  This is proof that the devastation caused by the riots has been the result of de facto collusion between leftist local and state governments and the actual rioters.

The leftist politicians weren't cowardly,weak or feckless, they executed a plan.
