columnist Jonathan Chait observed at the time, rather than having the “compensating virtue of easing the way for more progressive policies,” rioting promotes a “regressive backlash.” This conclusion was buttressed by a study conducted by Princeton University associate professor Omar Wasow, which found that episodes of looting and violence in the late 1960s preceded a decline in Democratic votes whereas civil disobedience did not. In sum, Chait noted, “riots make America more conservative.
This case for Trump does, however, overlook the myriad factors that pertain to this unique political moment and this particular president. Trump supporters in positions of authority are far more capable of making the case for this president than is the president himself. As Trump’s menacing tweet last week suggests, his unrefined communications strategy has as much potential to energize his voters as it does his opponents.
As the unfolding pandemic has demonstrated, the reservoir of sympathy for this president among the voting public is not deep.
THINK He had more of a response to Twitter fact-checking him.
THINK Opinions are like assholes...we all have one.
THINK Trump sees POC as inferior to him. His rhetoric, policies & protection of ”very fine people” tells us this. Trump has shown us time & time again who he really is. TrumpOwnsEveryDeath TrumpOwnsThisCrisis TrumpisaRacist 💔✊VoteBlueToEndThisNightmare 🇺🇸GoJoe2020 🇺🇸
THINK Let’s focus on the word may . That means these propaganda idiots are making it up. Like you may hit the lottery if you play.
NoahCRothman THINK R solution to lie, blame, and prevent only sells when someone else is in charge trying to get things done. Not convinced in the modern climate where anyone can broadcast that past strategy will work going forward.
NoahCRothman THINK An almost irrelevant discourse....interesting but meaningless as my cities are burned amid looting and invisible policing ordered by Democratic mayors....my Democratic Party has left me sad and alone......
THINK NBC hopes!
THINK Won't affect him in the least , but giving them False hope is what you all do best
THINK Probably because he’s a sniveling coward and not a real President
THINK MAY FAIL!!!!!? smh yall living a liieeeeee
THINK Its failure is evident around the world,we are looked at no different than, Russia, China, Iran and North Korea. realDonaldTrump has 2 goals, make/steal money off the presidency, make sure the world is burning for his boss. Hes doing both well cnn and MSNBC chase his tweets.
THINK GeorgeFloyd It's irony a coloured man costs Trump the re-election. Full stop.
THINK What?...You think America WANTS this anarchy and destruction and killing and looting? Perhaps it's more like:'why leftists push for racial division and violence may backlash in November'. Or sooner.
THINK Fake news. Next!
THINK I personally know 7 people who don’t like Trump but will be voting for him and straight Republican ticket because they “will never vote for a democrat again” after all of this
THINK But don't forget that Donald Trump is a raving lunatic! So there's that!!
