Full Headline: This is not a game: Trump threatens to take back Seattle as protesters set up autonomous zone
To some protesters, its a first step toward their demands to defund the police and end racial injustice.
But President Trump suggested another term for the demonstrators late Wednesday: Domestic Terrorists. Trump blasted Seattle Mayor Jenny Durkan (D) and Washington Gov. Jay Inslee (D) on Twitter, threatening federal action if local leaders dont take back the city.
Radical Left Governor @JayInslee and the Mayor of Seattle are being taunted and played at a level that our great Country has never seen before, Trump tweeted. Take back your city NOW. If you dont do it, I will. This is not a game. These ugly Anarchists must be stooped [sic] IMMEDIATELY. MOVE FAST!

Nice going Big Bother. You sound so very frightened, General Dictator. Protesters are not anarchists unless you feel that your back is to the wall and anarchy means to you that this is the end of your regime, Captain Furor.
Power to the people!!!!!!!!!!
This is not a game, that ugly Fascist must be stopped!!!!

The situation would be de-escalated, people would smoke a few bowls, their grievances would be aired (in front of a sympathetic audience and not a bunch of Nazis in riot gear), peace would reign, and there might even be some love, understanding, and progress.
Thats what defund the police is about. Put the money into programs that actually SOLVE problems as opposed to escalating them.

(8,053 posts)"taunted" means, he wouldn't know how to spell anarchists, and doesn't speak in sentences with that many words, unless it's about him.

Someone else (Steve Miller?) wrote that tweet. Just because they misspelled stopped (stooped), there's never been a republican who could spell, anyway.
