    I've never protested myself. I remember when I was stationed in California I was shocked at how many protests went on. They weren't violent though. It seemed like they protested anything and everything out there. They definitely have a different mind set on the west coast. I just hope they all get out and vote.

    Actually it’s peaceful protesters vs CNN defined mostly peaceful protesters to exercise their rights. Just another summer of love example in the Pacific Northwest

    Some of the Trump supporters came to San Francisco this weekend, breathed in some forest fire smoke, yelled back and forth with some liberals who showed up, and then left. It was reportedly peaceful, though four people got rowdy and were arrested. The group was called "Walk Away," which is interesting in that it at least sounds calm versus, you know, peaceful things like "WARRR!RRRrR1!!" But maybe I'm reading something into that that's just not there.

    The far left in Portland is, at this point, doing much more harm than good, IMHO.

    Maybe it's just the pandemic and all the lightning-lit fires down here in SF, but there aren't really many protestors anymore. People donating, working registration drives, getting ready to vote. You love to see that.

    This guy???? Oh my...... I said it before: They should've could've swapped Joe out in April or May and still held the lead over Trump. It doesn't bother you that the party is putting up a candidate they know will never make a decision or be included in one? It's like telling you to vote for Kermit the Frog...."because we said so and you hate Trump. " Sounds like a good reason to me. I'd be more insulted by that than anything Trump has said. The DNC must believe they can make you do anything they want. They are so filthy it's unbelievable.

    Comparing Trump to Hitler and Stalin? Like as in murdering people? See the list of dead Clinton associates. Trump isn't starting any wars or military conflicts either, so there's that.

    I'm not going to change your mind. This I know. But take Joe's mental/physical condition into account when you prop him up. Here's one of him speaking on an important current event.

    LOL, my oh my do you see Trump differently than me. Nothing, nor anyone disgusts me more than he and his GOP who would let their mothers and grandmothers die of Covid if it helped them keep their sleazy jobs or made them more money. They all disgust me. No sense debating this subject with you. 200,000 could die of Covid and you would still see him as your savior.

    Believe me when I say this, the following words would never come out of my mouth regarding Trump.



    Don't confuse Trump with the Brads of America.

    Good post! It's fine that we can disagree and it's even better that we aren't insulting each other.

    So let me get this straight "Antifa" are protesting and harassing the Democratic Mayor of Portland and this is domestic terrorism.
    But haven't we've been hearing that Democratic mayors were supporting and encouraging "Antifa".

    ISIS uses/used advertising to manufacture a UTOPIA that you could escape to. Trump manufactures DYSTOPIA.

    I think you know that's disingenuous.

    The mayors and governors aren't supporting it , they just aren't doing anything to put an end to it.

    Seattle forced their police to stand down allowing them to take over a part of the city.

    Portland has done nothing to stop it for 90+ days refusing to bring in their own state militia or seek federal aid.

    They may not be supporting it but they damn sure aren't doing anything to stop it.

    So you think shooting paintballs at people and spraying them with pepper spray is the same thing as stealing a flag and throwing some kind of liquid.

    And the paintball and pepper spray people traveled and organized to do these things, they brought those things to the rally.

    This whataboutism is the awful thing here.

    So the people who were just protesting peacefully who just got pelted with paintballs and pepper spray are not good guys?

    How does that make sense?
