What some seem not to understand is that he means it.

....These THUGS are dishonoring the memory of George Floyd, and I won’t let that happen. Just spoke to Governor Tim Walz and told him that the Military is with him all the way. Any difficulty and we will assume control but, when the looting starts, the shooting starts. Thank you!

The Trump tweet that Twitter deleted said, “If they start looting, we’ll start shooting.”

My father’s words are just as relevant now as they were back then. Please listen and share. #BlackLivesMatter

He's one of the most dangerous idiots of the 21st century. It's also ironic because he and his followers are proud of the Boston Tea Party. American revolutions are great if you're the "right color"

Funny he didn’t call the gun toting madmen threatening a state house thugs?

I'm glad we have a president who is about the law. People have a right to protest, they do not have a right to riot, to destroy property and steal. Police have the right to stop crimes in process and if the mob is too many for police the National Guard Army should be used.

The looting has been going on for 3 days now. He's playing for the crowd. If they do fire on protesters, holy shit that's the powder keg explosion right there. Especially now Trump has posted this. He'd be... directly culpable.

Why isn't he demanding the immediate arrest of the thugs who murdered a defenseless black man
