    Sorry, disagree. How you communicate, the words you choose and whether you consider those words (and whether they are spelled correctly) is very important in this world. The more important your position, the more important it is.

    These cities and states Democrat politicians will continue to pander and do what their extreme liberal constituents want. After all, that is what got them elected in their cushy jobs with all the perks. Now, doing their jobs, Democrats love photo-ops to make it seem they are in charge and doing their jobs when the fact is the opposite. President Trump had called all these Democrat governors urging them take control of their cities and what did they do? They continued to attack the police and demonize them. The mob would have been reined in and controlled if the police and national guard were actually, allowed to do their jobs? The Democrat Washington DC mayor actually, kicked out the National Guard from other states securing her city out of their hotel rooms by telling the hotel that she was not paying them. These Democrat politicians have instructed the police and national guard to stand down. Why do I know this? You have only look at the footage by extreme liberal media. In the first 2 nights, police and national guard stood around as props and did nothing. They did not stop the looters or anarchists. On the 3rd day, they made some token arrests of curfew violators and a handful of looters. Now, token is the word, the curfew violators they made a spectacle off was not booked meaning their mug shots taken, fingerprints taken and if they had warrants checked by police. No. The police was to take them into another location and hand them out citations or a warning then, release them? Can you believe that crap? Now, again it is the Democrat politicians doing this not the police.

    I care more about content and allow for my own typos and mistakes in exchange for speed.

    I can't really review my own work for a period of time. I frequently see what I thought I was typing rather than what I actually typed.

    However, if I were President and I used twitter I would have my tweets go through a human filter or 2.

    My comment about it being racist was a outlet for how disgusted I am with the media and many people mixing looting and criminal behavior with real protests.

    I absolutely do believe that we have systemic problems that wind up screwing blacks and others and they need to be fixed.

    I don't think the policies are designed to be racist as much as hey are designed to keep creating democrat voters. But, the results do seem to impact black people disproportionately and quite negatively.

    So on some core items I am side of the true protestors.

    But, in my mind... the looters and criminals have nothing to do with protesting.

    Calling out racism and confusing looting and criminal behavior is not likely to improve the situation in the long run.


    Without the rule of law and its enforcement...
    We know the pattern...

    The stores will leave and things will get even more expensive.
    The cities tax revenues will go down.
    This Covid spending will cause cities to cut back.
    The cities will try to raise taxes
    More liberals will leave
    They will start to vote in new places and destroy those now purple areas.

    I'm not arguing against anything in your comments on racism or Seattle or anything at all other than the President's appearance when he goes off the rails and projects himself as a crazy person on Twitter.

    I just wish he would stop.

    Democrat politicians will "never" change or actually do their jobs they were elected to do. However, they will collect their paychecks and lecture the rest of us on what we should be doing to advance their extreme liberal agenda. This is how it is done by real public servants. Of course, Texas is a state with a Republican governor. So, if they can do this in Texas, what is stopping the Democrat governors from having Antifa thugs actually arrested? The simple answer is they do not want to have them arrested and actually, do their jobs.

    I do get what you're saying, the problem with his tweets are there are too many and
    less about how half cocked they are.

    If a tweet like "Get control! Law and Order!" came once a year it wouldn't look
    silly and would get more serious attention.

    Problem is, its every other day.. lost all meaning.

    Tens of millions see President Donald Trump's tweets each and every day. It is not meaningless if it reaches the targeted audience. The only reason extreme liberal Democrats want President Donald Trump to stop tweeting is so, they can have one sided lies coming in one after the other and nothing to rebut them at all. Heaven help us if you cannot even debunk such lies and extreme liberals lie non-stop 24/7 and twice on Sundays. You can give up your free speech rights because you would not have any rights left if only the extreme liberals have their say. I don't go on Twitter all the time but, if I see extreme liberal lies being posted, I would rebut those lies on the spot. If not, you condone them doing what they do. I would rather reasonable Americans make the decision on who is telling the truth after given the facts and not just the one sided lies. It is all political and extreme liberal Democrats want to remove President Donald Trump from office. Who does not see that? Vote him out if you want to on November 3, 2020. Any other means is just treason.

    Imagine a mentally ill person.

    This person looks normal.

    It's only through conversation ... say a job interview ... or a conversation at the bar ... it is only through conversation that you can discover just how ill/sick/evil this person is.

    Wouldn't you want to know that this person is ill ... before you hire them? before you vote for them, before you introduce them to your friends, or whatever, etc.?

    Or would you say, they should have never talked! If they hadn't talked, and revealed just how f'd up they are, I wouldn't have hired them ... voted for them ... invited them to lunch?

    Or course not, you'd say, I'm glad I got a glimpse of how their mind works! I dodged a bullet that time.

    The solution is not that Trump should stop tweeting. We should see what's going on in that little brain of his. We should want to know. After all, he's the POTUS!

    The fact that his supporters say he shouldn't tweet, is telling.

    His supporters are proudly enabling the worst leader in modern history, and are lining up signal file, hands to ankles, hoping for four more years. As I've said before ... part of me hopes that they get it ... a Trump, with nothing to lose, (assuming he is unable to do away with the two term limit) no real inspector generals worry about, R senators shivering in their boots at the thought of calling him out on his BS, pretending like he's normal, etc.

    Sounds like a plan.

    The chickens will eventually come home to roost. Meanwhile, enjoy the show.
