When the president of the United States is calling up your National Guard over the top of local law enforcement, saying that they don’t need it, that they have things under control, it tends to have an inflaming effect on what’s going on on the ground.

The Trump administration is following a playbook: cause chaos, create fear and confusion, make it seem like peaceful protesters are a mob by firing gas pellets and tear gas canisters at them.
This is part of the militarization of our American cities that Donald Trump is engaging in.
My great fear, of course, is that with the release of that information, which I think will be devastating for Trump, he’s going to do everything in his power to distract.
