    Oh, and in respect to that: don’t forget that it was Trump’s administration that signed off on unmarked federal vans black-bagging protestors in Portland, and Trump himself who had DC Police disperse a protest just so he could take a photo in front of a church, AND that Trump actually wanted to deploy military force against the protests - he explicitly wanted the military to “machine-gun them in the streets” like he’s Tsar Alexander.
