Street Protests Have Already Begun As The Mainstream Media Stirs Up A Backlash...

• The Economic Collapse Blog - Michale Snyder

The mainstream media is freaking out about President Trump's takeover of Washington D.C, and protests have already begun.  Needless to say, Washington D.C. is not friendly territory for Trump.  It has one of the highest concentrations of Democrats of any major city in the nation, and Kamala Harris won 90 percent of the vote in D.C. last November.  So this situation has the potential to get out of control very rapidly.

Let us hope that cooler heads prevail, but some in the mainstream media are already trying to draw parallels between the current crisis and the George Floyd protests of 2020.  For example, the following comes from a Time Magazine article entitled "Trump's Hostile Takeover of D.C. Is Straight Out of the Summer 2020 Playbook"

As he announced he was taking over Washington's police department and deploying FBI agents and 800 National Guardsmen to patrol the streets of the nation's capital, President Donald Trump on Monday seemed to gunning for a trip back to the unsettled summer of 2020 when the Covid-19 pandemic and racial justice protests set America on edge. It was an aspirational time jump for Trump, who is in search of a way out of political troubles of his own making.
