Countdown 61 Day Election

California 31 days until early voting

TRUMP’S TRIP TO WISCONSIN    Hanlon’s razor is conveyed as: Never attribute malice that which is adequately explained as stupidity.  The Trump notion as the “Law and Order” president is at best an illusion. This deception can be demonstrated by Trump’s uninvited trip to Kenosha, Wisconsin even after repeated requests for him not to come. 

The eruption of protests by Black Lives Matter in Kenosha WI began with the violent video of a police officer shooting Jacob Blake, a black man 7 times in the back.  Protests had turned violent on the first night of the with burning of a car dealership and looting by a few individuals out for revenge.  The BLM protests that ensued were peaceful for the most part.

Trump, along with his Attorney General met with local business owners and law enforcement officers to give him the mantle of being pro police and for “Law and Order.”  Trump paying more time and energy on the property loss, that can be replaced, than the shooting and death of the individuals. 

Trump truly made a spectacle of himself by outlining a public defense of self-defense for an individual accused of a double murder. Trump said, Kyle the accused, was justified in the use of self-defense “when he was violently attacked”, the mob would “probably killed him if he didn’t act.” The individual, an avid Trump supporter with pictures of himself on Facebook in the first row of a Trump Rally. Kyle Rittenhouse, a 17 year old had come from 30 miles away to protect someone else’s property with an AR-15 assault rifle.  There was a video of Kyle running from a group of angry individuals that looked as if they were going to attack him when he had tripped.  At that time someone had tried to take the rifle away.  The video shows Kyle shooting at and killing one of the of his pursuers in the group. 

What Trump did not see the prior incident where Kyle had shot and killed someone that was unarmed.  There was no video of the first murder and the mob was chasing him to get the gun away from before he killed anyone else. Trump gave a public defense of justifiable homicide for Kyle accused of murder. The investigation into the matter concluded that Kyle had committed several crimes.  The criminal complaint filed by the Wisconsin prosecutors showed he fired on  individuals that were unarmed. The document indicts on 6 counts and one being 1st degree homicide which is murder in that Wi..

Trump, by weighing into this situation he is either using bad information, or lying, or just being stupid.  By any account he is undermining the rule of law while touting himself as the “Law and Order president.”  Huh?  What It looks like the president put his hand down and hit it with a track shoe to muddle his message?

Trump did not meet with the families of Kyle’s victims, nor with the family of Jacob Blake.  Instead he defends the senseless killing by a teen that Trump has groomed with subtle messages to be out front of the violence.  Trump by his actions is saying its ok to shoot someone that is against our message even though they may be peaceful. 

If the arrival of the police creates a crime scene, and If the most serious crimes are being committed by individuals that are disrupting the peaceful demonstrations all seem to be Trump supporters is Trump really the “Law and Order” candidate?

The BLM protesters are only calling for the end of systemic police brutality against blacks and equal treatment under law.  Trump appears to deputize his minions to take justice into their own hands as vigilantes.  Kyle was not the only Trump supporter from somewhere else with a gun attempting to assist the police in Kenosha.  What could go wrong?  Trump supporting Kyle and his actions only gives license to all the other Trump dotards in training.  Trump is deputizing anyone to go against those not in step with his white supremacy project.

In an interview with Fox news, when confronted with the incident in Portland where outside Trump agitators were shooting paint balls and tear gas or mace at the peaceful demonstrators in a drive by attack.  He ducks the question on systemic racism.  He never condemned the violence.  As a performer his singular best talent trump has is driving wedges between groups.  Trump cannot even find it in himself to condemn violence by his supporters.

The interviewer asked if he was going condemned the actions of the vigilantes like Kyle Rittenhouse and he said: “ We’re looking at all of that, that was an interesting situation.  You saw the same tape as I saw. and uh, he was trying to get away from them, I guess, it looks like, and  he fell and then they violently attacked him, and it was something we are looking at right now and it’s under investigation. But uh I, I guess he was in very big trouble he probably would have been killed it’s under investigation.”  The facts are the Kyle was not in physical danger when he killed the initial victim and both victims were unarmed.  Trump is and his team are openly endorsing violence. 

Kellyanne Conway said  out in the open that the violence in the cities are helping Trump’s case for “Law and Order.”  Trump is ignoring or even denying racial injustice exists and fomenting violence to his own peril. Fear, It worked in 2016, will it work again?

Trump foments fear using conspiracy theories he and his minions dig up on Fox news or the internet.  When confronted by Laura Ingram on “The Ingram Angle” Trump’s was asked: “Who do you think is pulling Biden’s strings is it former Obama people?” his answer was: “People you never heard of  people that are in the dark shadows, people that  a” Laura interjects: “What does that mean sounds that sounds like conspiracy theory”  Trump replies: They are people you never  heard of they are that are on the streets people that are controlling the streets.  We had an someone get on a plane from a certain city this weekend and in the plane it was almost completely loaded with, with, thugs wearing these dark uniforms black uniforms with gear and this and that they were on a plane ” Laura interrupts and asks where was it Trump replied: “I’ll tell you sometime it’s under investigation right now.” Oh yeah?  He appears to be repeating a false conspiracy theory post on line, it matches a month-old rumor about groups of people coming to terrorize suburbs which has thrived on line in recent months.  Russian bot post repeated by Trump?  Be very afraid of the disinformation spewing from Trump.  Trump and his minions will say and do anything through November 3rd if it will help him to be re-elected.
