Please Stay Home

My view is that he wants conflict. He wants to stir people up. He wants to get the Neo-Nazis out there throwing things at the protestors. That's how he incites fear and that's his only chance left at winning.

The Portland mayor is right: This is the wrong time to incite hatred. You are not helping the situation. I think they are saying the same thing in Kenosha. Do not visit, that doesn't help.

Ordinarily a president visits in order to support the local people who are dealing with a crisis. A visit to Louisiana after the flood, yes, that makes sense. Even if he doesn't provide money, or tactical support, he can at least show that he is behind the efforts to repair things and he is aware of the devastation that has taken place.

But in the case of Kenosha, he is the devastation. He encourages the Neo-Nazis. This is a case where people really need to see the difference between the police and the Neo-Nazis. This is not the time to cloud the issue.

It is time to think about the people that die in his eagerness to incite violence. And it is time for us Americans to realize that inciting violence and encouraging revolution is treason. Even when it's the only way a person can get re-elected.
