Trump can't do anything without costing him the election. Democrats are sitting on their hands, and Republicans are out for lunch. Who's running this show anymore? The beautiful irony is what CHAZ has accomplished: * Stolen land from a nation * Erected a wall to keep unwanted people out * Extorted the natural citizens (Seattle-ans) for money and food Wow, almost like they've become exactly what the left has allegedly been against. Oh wait...this is one of those rules for me and not for thee scenarios isn't it...
Would you be so kind as to show us where a "gun thumper" cult took over some portion of a city, demanded protection money from the local businesses there and gave a list of demands even close to something like this: Also, if supposed gun thumpers (or any other conservative group) had taken over, say, 6 blocks in Denver Colorado, what would be the local and Federal response?
I'll say what I've said the whole time. Let these folks have their 6 blocks. Let Seattle and every other liberal bastion of utopia develop on its own without aid. Can anyone think of a better solution? Just watch this video from the "CHAZ" (the zone in question). This is better than TV.
Fairly straightforward how to handle this. Cut off all utilities. Exit only, no one gets in including emergency services. Wait.
