about youth not able to stay focused; instead, being Right-Left threatening. Each feed the public a worst version of their opponents.

The basic difference is that antifa is antiracist and their opponents are racist.

All that spills over into Portland's BLM protests to the point where a Black marine stood up and yelled "Y'all ain't carin' about us! Y'all tryin' to take over!" Blacks in Portland, which are only 6% of the population, don't want to be used by the feds and ignored by local whites in a standing conflict.

This plays right into the hands of Trump's campaign ads, and his goons who will grab any of them to keep this prior conflict going.

Local politics will be exploited by Trump to characterize the entire Democratic Party states and Biden's future version of America. Bloody donnie is already saying it.

His "law and order" campaign will result in what we've already seen -- real scofflaw" Nazi rule and racial hierarchal "order" as Trump's future version of America.
