Antifa isn't a recognized, organized group
There is no mechanism for declaring domestic organizations as terrorist groups
The president doesn't have that authority anyway

Shit is crazy in Chicago. One of my friend's apartment complex has been busted up (second floor windows. Bunch of looting on Milwaukee which is close to where another friend lives. Another friend is also pretty close to a looting area near the Division blue line stop. My area seems to be fine for now. Some shit happening a little southwest of me, but still pretty far (by foot). Shit fucking sucks. I walked by a peaceful protest yesterday and thought the craziness would mostly stay in downtown, but it's seeping out.

I'm getting a little scared. My friend in the apartment that was busted on the lower floors recorded a video and it shows a cop arriving at one of the looting areas and some random shot at a cop car (by the time other cop cars showed up that crowed dissipated). And he said that there were like 70 looters there at one point. So yeah it's all going to shit. Awful. Obviously things hit a boiling point and this is where we are at.

Now the question is: Does the Secret Service allow the protesters to get into the White House (doubt it, it's their job obviously to not allow that to happen) and drag Trumpy-kins kicking and screaming out of a secure bunker (which would be AWESOME).

Remember when people were like "You think the streets will be set on fire when Trump is president? lol you're over exaggerating"

This would have happened whether he was president or not. But setting yourself up as the symbol of this shit wouldn't help.
I think Trump escalated the situation to the point of sustaining (and ramping up) this intensity through multiple days.

His actions are reprehensible, I don't see how this event gets forgotten in the public consciousness between now and November.

There are fires roaring all directions around the White House despite the National Guard ffs

He escalated it absolutely and I won't be shocked if secret service doesn't want to die for him lol

there will be riots if it's only manslaughter and there will probably be riots even if it's murder

there will also be scattered riots on the 1 year anniversary regardless of trial outcome as with Ferguson

The dumb thing is most if not all of the looting is just obnoxious opportunists using the protests as a catalyst. It sucks. Nobody busting into a fucking Patagonia or Forever 21 is doing it because they give a shit about police violence.

Not to mythologize the presidents of the past but it really feels like at least the most modern ones wouldn't have fucked it like this? Feeling the lack of respect and leadership acutely rn. I remember Zeitlin posted about Nixon talking to Kent State protestors irl, can anyone see Trump doing something like that lol

He's definitely been escalating it in the short-term, in the long-term a big part of his candidacy and administration was "taking the handcuffs off the cops" [remember him "joking" about how cops should rough-up protesters during his campaign events?] and reversing what meager reforms Obama's administration made.

It ain't a surprise.

Trump couldn't even score a layup when a journo asked him how he can assure the American people during the trying and scary time of Covid.
