Trump is a troublemaker and would love to see a violent outbreak in Tulsa

His goons could, as he said, would deal with protestors “harshly”. He is an evil force like the character in Steven King’s novel “Needful Things” Who turns people against each other and destroys a town.

He doesn't think he'll be re-elected without a war. Unfortunately his war is against America.

Just ignore those idiots and put all of our energy and resources into demolishing them and their candidates in November.

The public is already sick of the chaos and division, they want it to stop, and they can see Trump is encouraging it. But he’s going to keep doing it even though it will hurt him politically, not help him.

The only conclusion is that he’s a psychopath who just wants to see the American people beating each other up, because it gives him feelings of power and pleasure.

Edited to add: polls show that a majority of the public is in favor of peaceful protests — what they’re opposed to is the so-called president trying to sic his violent supporters, cops, or the military on peacefully protesting citizens.

He thrives on other's pain. Mary Trump's book probably has some eye-opening anecdotes that will be stomach churning to normal people.

Go about our own business of trying to get this country back on track to better days for everyone.

Unfortunately, there are too many, IMO, on our side who get a charge out of confrontational street scenes. I rather do my damage in the voting booth.

that there will never be a true accounting of the cost in sicknesses and lost lives or in dollars.

Most likely, hundreds will become infected or passive carriers, a number will die and the cost of transportation and security will be in the millions, but we will never hear the true numbers. In the long-haul, Tulsa will have to eat a large bill for police and lost business just like with many other tRump rallies.

All just so one narcissistic, psychopathic person can get his two hours of egotistical gratification.....
