Trump fans flames of resentment and hatred

For several decades, America has been a deeply divided nation, but it has grown more so in the Trump era. It’s not just that hostility from those in one political party towards those in the other has risen. Divisions between urban and rural America, between those with university degrees and those without, have also widened.

In 1992, south-central Los Angeles suffered similar outbreaks of violence after a jury dismissed a blatant case of police brutality against motorist Rodney King caught on videotape.Credit:In 2014, violence erupted in Ferguson, Missouri, after the shooting of unarmed teenager Michael Brown. In New York, Eric Garner was choked to death while pleading with police that he could not breathe.

Something more is going on here than resentment at police brutality — it is a crisis of confidence that goes beyond Trump — and it’s just not clear how Americans today can resolve their differences.

Start reporting NEWS instead of your individual opinion. Opinion ‘news’ is why we’re in the mess we are in

'last week’s encounter between African-American man George Floyd and the Minneapolis police' you say that like George Floyd had a CHOICE. Imagine describing that after a home invasion or a sexual assault 'an interaction' do better

Trump’s a pussy, said he was going to bring out the military to stop this, but did not, where are all his armed supporters to defend this. Give up and call China for advice

You fight fire with fire. Trump gets things done.

America in the past, present and the future will always be the same !

Out of control now, too much human rights - free killing and robbery.

FAKE NEWS

Campus Marxism has nothing to do with it.

He’s unfit to lead

No such thing as institutional racism in the US? Just one example: “...By denying African-American families mortgage credit, the financial industry also denies them the opportunity to accumulate household wealth...”

Well if anyone should recognise that behaviour it’s the smh

TDS,It’s spread to Australia

Media fans flames! Stop fake narrative smh! Law and order responsibility of Democrat state governors.

How is Obama any different? A leader who could’ve calmed tensions, only heightened them.

Good to see Trump has his denialist bots active in the Sydney Morning Herald, trying to tell everyone one that what they can see with their own eyes and hear with their own ears, isn't true.

Get army to White House now

Lots of MAGAMORONS tweeting today.

Now do antifa and the gutless democrats who have been silent so far

Since when you idiots have been right on anything?

Go to hell.

80% of looters come from OUT OF STATE & some are provisional troublemakers: News outlets USA John Jackson: Why are these looters smiling? Shouldn't they be angry or at least sad?

Thank you. He certainly does, just to distract from his failures. DonnieDistraction

STFU, quokka.

Comment: media fans flames of resentment and hatred.

False Democrats are the problem, just like the left is in Australia. They destroy the country from within. Sickening

Put a sock in it.

Stay out of our insurrection.

W R O N G

Wat a stupid Tweet. Utterly stupid. Stick to covering kangroos...something I at least assume you actually know something about (though I have my doubts).

No, the liberal media sins it to look like that.

Well donkeys.....if you write it...it must be true!!!

As America burns, Trump falls short at another crisisHaving missed the chance to respond effectively to the coronavirus, Donald Trump faced another crisis in the shocking killing of black man George Floyd and the violent protests that subsequently broke out in Minneapolis. | ANALYSIS He was born to soil himself at every possible opportunity.

Hong Kong leaders say Trump 'completely wrong' for curbing tiesHong Kong officials have criticised US President Donald Trump for threatening sanctions over a controversial new security law being proposed by China for Hong Kong. SBS working for the Chinese Communist party he should take his cult to mar-a-lago, build a yuuuuge wall around it and let everyone else get on with things.
