Will all this "unrest" in America help or hinder re-election of Trump?

[Sprider69]

I'm worried he will get in again. Unless the BLM protesters get out and vote I think he will win over Biden. Biden is likable but not strong enough to move the voters like Obama.

His tweets are going to do him in as well, there are FAR more opponents of his posting now than his supporters...The man cannot stop slamming his foot into his mouth repeatedly. Plus now I saw Anonymous has leaked court documents about him and Epstien that had previously gone unnoticed or unreleased about a rape of a 13 y/o girl and they were competing to take her virginity (took place in 2016, if it's real, that is ONE HELL of a cover up!)...quite sickening all around down there the last week with everything going on. Reports he is becoming unhinged etc...

that's what we all thought before his first election.

This controversy is exactly what Trump needs. It will scare the republican base and mobilize them.

The huge problem that Trump has is that "the Republican base" is not 50% of the US population eligible to vote. In fact it is split approximately 1/3 Dem, 1/3 GOP and 1/3 independant. So Trump is fucked regardless of how "mobilized" the Republicans are. I doubt very much, after what has transpired over the last 4 years, that a very high percentage of independants will vote for Trump.

Now that George Floyd is laid to rest:

An anonymous history professor at U.C. Berkeley has penned an open letter against the current narratives of racial injustice underpinning the BLM [Black Lives Matter] movement and ongoing protests over the death of George Floyd.

Would we characterize criminal justice as a systemically misandrist conspiracy against innocent American men? I hope you see that this type of reasoning is flawed, and requires a significant suspension of our rational faculties. Black people are not incarcerated at higher rates than their involvement in violent crime would predict. This fact has been demonstrated multiple times across multiple jurisdictions in multiple countries.

All donations to the official BLM website are immediately redirected to ActBlue Charities, an organization primarily concerned with bankrolling election campaigns for Democrat candidates. Donating to BLM today is to indirectly donate to Joe Biden's 2020 campaign.

As a final point, our university and department has made multiple statements celebrating and eulogizing George Floyd. Floyd was a multiple felon who once held a pregnant black woman at gunpoint. He broke into her home with a gang of men and pointed a gun at her pregnant stomach. He terrorized the women in his community. He sired and abandoned multiple children, playing no part in their support or upbringing, failing one of the most basic tests of decency for a human being. He was a drug-addict and sometime drug-dealer, a swindler who preyed upon his honest and hard-working neighbors.

It shouldn't affect the strength of my argument above, but for the record, I write as a person of color. My family have been personally victimized by men like Floyd.

If you are going to share the worst of his life, share the rest of the story.

Yes, he was a bad person earlier in his life, he also found some redemption. Whatever he did, he didn't deserve to be slowly suffocated to death, murdered by a white police while he pleaded for his life. If you are actually a POC and not a troll, please, do a minute of actual research before you spout off a ton of nonsense and make yourself look stupid.

Also, use an ounce of common sense and check some facts. I found that link in less than 10 seconds on Google. You and countless others mindlessly spouting conspiracy theories is exactly what Trump wants and needs to get back into office.

While you are at it, some more actual facts:

Reading up lately, and it seems he is in failing faster and faster in his physical shape, shows all the signs of having Pick's disease, which is a rapidly escalating form of dementia, aka as Frontotemporal dementia, worth noting that he probably inherited it from his father who died of it Even if he gets another term, he may not last.

Your voice does not matter. It’s only when black people are being killed by white people and white cops that it matters. So it doesn’t matter that 80% of black deaths in the US are at the hands of other blacks. Who’s speaking for those people?

spreads....let

BTW,it was the RCMP who tasered the man at the airport, not a municipal police agency. I think municipal police are generally better trained than RCMP

I didn't realize until recently that Trump and Biden are the only two left running. Right here, right now I'm going to predict that no matter which one wins the election, neither one is going to be alive by the end of the 4 year term.
