They’re actually going to get folks “pizza store” shot in Portland by some imbecile from some “shithole” state!
 
The Republicans in Congress have no balls. They aren’t going to do shit.
It's been said many times, but the Republican "Party" now has much less resemblance to a traditional political party than to a quasi-religious Cult of Personality. I'm sure that at least some Congressional Republicans privately despise him, but they're not about to sacrifice their careers and face the wrath of MAGA Nation. So here we are, and we'll just keep going deeper into the rabbit hole that we've fallen into.

Trump owns all of them and he knows it. Jeff Flake tried to be the adult in the room and Trump got him primaried. No one has really stood up to him since.

Trump can ensure you win or lose a primary but he can't ensure that you win the general in a competitive state or district.
 
If there was one city where violence was most likely to break out, it'd be Portland.

Which I'm guessing is the point here.
Yes.

And “full force” means I want you to do some bad things but I am keeping plausible deniability.

If Trump has one super power, it is going off the rails but somehow maintaining a facade of plausible deniability.
 
“… Steve Bannon, the former Trump strategist and War Room podcast host, has called on the White House to declare martial law in a section of Portland to arrest “antifa.”

“Just round them up,” Bannon told POLITICO. “I think you’re going to see, with this terrorist designation, I believe you’re going to see a real increase in federal support.”

But a senior police official at the Portland Police Department, who was granted anonymity because he was not authorized to talk about police operations, said sending in additional federal forces would escalate the situation.…”
Arresting “antifa” is like arresting a ghost. There it is…there it’s not. Like a mushroom…most of “antifa” is under ground.
 


Trump pardoned this guy. A guy who heard “stand back and stand by” as an activation and “be there, will be wild” as an order.

We can take an educated guess at how he hears Trump’s rhetoric now …
