It's important to recognise what's new in the Trump/far right convergence around the Portland/Kenosha events. 1/ We've moved from isolated far right shooters to routine weapons carrying by the far right and now to open kinetic vigilantism... newstatesman.com/world/north-am…

3/ The strategic goal is to defeat Trump at the polls; it's not about calling off protests, it's about the left in the Democratic Party showing leadership and connecting with them to do the maximum to stop Trump dictating the tempo/framing of the crisis...

Trump's effort to fuel intense social unrest across the nation for which he will then present himself as the man to fix it is going according to plan. He is the Divider-in-Chief & these shootings in Wisconsin & Oregon are exactly the kind of news he wants.

Republican voters are in the minority in this country. The GOP has one won the popular vote ONCE in the past 7 election cycles. So they have to resort to ever more extreme measures to scrape across the finishing line "ahead" in the electoral college (which is inherently biased).
“He (Trump) just keeps pouring fuel on the fire. He’s encouraging this. He’s not diminishing this at all. This is his America now,” Biden said, “And, if you want to end where we are now, we’ve got to end his tenure as president.”

Here’s a video of #TrumpViolence in Tallahassee as a psycho enters our protest and hits my GIRLFRIEND - he gets the hands put to him and pulls a gun like he didn’t expect it. Arm yourselves. Tallahassee too strong for that. #BlackLivesMatter
Look familiar? This is the same man speaking to the police right before the attack. 
Hey everyone - if you feel the need to support the movement in Tallahassee and can’t be on the ground, consider offering your services or means to @tallycac and @betwereact
