A week ago, in the wake of a possible flattening of the COVID-19 growth curve, President Trump’s campaign could maintain some optimism.
While polls suggested that the public trusted likely Democratic nominee Joe Biden as better than Trump at dealing with the health crisis, they continued to trust the president more on handling the economy. The polls were consistent with the idea that if he could convince the country to make the election about “who’s better for ensuring a strong American recovery?” he might be in a competitive position in November.
Then came the death by asphyxiation of George Floyd under the knee of a Minneapolis policeman.
Sure. Law & Order = NO... Riots & Anarchy = YES... And the majority of Americans are going to vote like this?

You can quickly see where this Writer’s Thoughts are. At least you could get your information correct. George Floyd did not die from asphyxiation. His death was Tragic, but following the Liberal Media Storyline rather than the complete and accurate truth makes your writing worthless.

Exactly the opposite is true. If the true nature of this BLM movement is exposed the backlash against it will be great. Justice and racial equality are great platitudes. The practical playing out of those platitudes will scare the hell out of the average Suburban and rural American citizen. As the deaths of police and the videos of white liberals kneeling en mass to confess their collective guilt and renounce their white privilege multiply, the revulsion by people who work hard and keep this county and economy going will be palpable.

Fox is getting as bad as the NY Times. A small percentage protest, burn, riot...the others work, stay home, obey rules & laws. Don't allow the media to warp your brains.The virus proved the media & politicians are looney. They allow protest but no funerals, work or church services. Please note all these cities & states in crisis are run by democrats. Hopefully everyone will remember this in November & vote for all republicans. No one except the dems & media blame Trump for the riots.

I had thought that it would be impossible for Trump to lose in 2020. I don't care for his demeanor but I like his policies. Now I'm not sure that matters. With the all out attack by MSM and the fact that the majority of this country is afraid -- deathly afraid -- of the unseen virus and the belief that a mentally incompetent ex-VP could better protect them, this country seems lost.

I feel for #6. The assault is like a monsoon rain when you're going somewhere. I think it all got to this author, sadly. He's a very wet noodle.
We're being gas lighted, deceived by partial truths and outright lies.
Americans expect order, as any civilized people would. Trump has declared himself the law and order president, and his opponents say that's racist. But heck, they say inhaling is racist; exhaling even more so.
They are dangerous, especially when they are losing, which they are.

This is desperation time for the Dump Trumpets. Nothing that has been manufactured has collapsed his support. Now we go into crisis upon crisis mode until his poll numbers crack under civic fatigue. The UNIPARTY will never stop. PDT is an existential threat who must be destroyed.

Anyone else need proof that Fox News with the exception of their conservative cash cow evening line up has now joined the ranks of CNN, MSNBC, and the rest of the democrat communist party propaganda wing?
All of these so-called peaceful protests are taking place for the most part in democrat run sewers with the majority of the useful idiots made up of stupid, indoctrinated young white folk who have been penned up for 2 months with no outlet for fun and excitement. George Floyd was a career thug and drug user who during a home invasion stuck his gun into the stomach of a pregnant women and threatened to kill her. As more and more facts come out about his death, I suspect Saint Floyd will join the ranks of those other black victim heroes like Trayvon Martin and that thug in Ferguson. The media keeps relentlessly reminding all of us of the thousands of "for the most part peaceful protestors" marching across the country. I wonder just how many would be marching if the unconstitutional lock down had not take place and instead most of them would be working. I will bet the total numbers of the marching morons are a very small minority of the total population of our country.
Wonder why fair and balanced Fox News is not reporting real facts about Floyd and the riots, excuse me I mean peaceful protests. This "reporter" should be fired for his bias. The Murdoch punks running Fox (into the ground!) hate Trump.
These riots will only boost Trump's numbers because the vast majority of Americans want Law and Order and real Justice for all of these lawbreakers.
Save our Country and Make America Great Again.

To answer the question in the title, the answer is NO. In fact, it could lead to a mega landslide for Trump in November. Even law-abiding black people are fed up with the riots.

With racism as a specter threatening any attempt to curb vote fraud -- voter id, vote harvesting, mail-in voting, illegals voting -- I'm very worried. As much as the left effs up every thing else they touch, they have vote fraud down.

As per usual, the Rats are badly overplaying their hand, taking what could have been a good issue for them (fighting racial injustice and police brutality) and running wild with it caving in to extremists and proposing lunatic solutions. No sane person wants police forces completely dissolved, and this opens the door for Trump to propose common sense solutions and to paint the Rats as unhinged and dangerous to society.

If the insurrection and mass voting fraud continues, President Trump should declare martial law and suspend elections. Then activate all National Guard and police reserves to crush the criminals. Neighborhoods are increasingly organizing to defend against the criminals.

I know someone who HATES TRUMP and I asked them who would you rather have as President..
Who is on the bench in either party that can do any better or even half as good?
Just because you have the media in you pocket does not mean that much anymore.

Trump's "undoing" began in 2016 and six hundred crises, imeachments, charges of misconduct and collusion later he is still Da Man. Try to keep up.

On the contrary, Trump will be the riots' undoing. That's why they're attacking him so desperately.

Note Well just WHERE the majority of the looting and riots are happening--
The Media which is egging it on, or
cities, states and enclaves where the demonrat socialists either rule with an iron fist or LET IT HAPPEN
SURE, let the prisoners out because of a virus scare, defund or emasculate law enforcement, and then create fear and doubt by upending our traditional system of voting and governance...
People are taking notice of what is going on.

It won't be Trump's undoing. This is just the last coup attempt. The riots will continue through the election. The left will burn the country down. We have only the FBI to protect us, those brave warriors kneeling, and Wray ignoring Antifa's terrorist designation, not arresting or investigating a single member. That's the thin thread holding us. Thank God for Trump, as he is the lone fighter for justice we have.

I repeat myself, but FOX news has been Murdochized, just as the Wall Street Journal has. It's sad. The television station and the newspaper just are not the same as they used to be.

The anarchy is totally owned and managed by the criminal left. Only voters who have difficulty walking and chewing gum at the same time will be unable to figure this out by November despite the MSM's tsunami of lies.

"Then came the death by asphyxiation of George Floyd under the knee of a Minneapolis policeman."
The only autopsy on Floyd, the government's autopsy, showed he died of heart failure. His body was suffused with Fentanyl and Methaphetamine, a lethal combination that has killed tens of thousands of Americans by inducing heart failure. When he was arrested for passing counterfeit currency and other crimes, the police radioed paramedics for help because he was in a state of "excited delirium." The handbook on emergency medicine used by the Minnneapolis Police recommended restraint of the suspect in excited delirium until he could be sedated.
Fox News should try to at least be in the same zip code as the facts.

No. Just as in 1968, normal, sane people recoil from this violence and anarchy and want law and order. This will not be good for Dems who support all this disorder, violence and hatred.

Inside the DC beltway and New York City, the places where the fake news media does their thing, are a lot different than “Silent Majority” America where the people live who actually make the country run, and will actually vote, know that President Trump did not start the Chinese COVID-19 virus pandemic and the Black rioting or use them for political purposes. It’s fools gold to believe that the majority of the American people want to abolish their local police forces and want “open borders”. So you can guess the election outcome pretty clearly!

The author's lack of logic is astounding, the democratic party has aligned itself with the rioter's. Women who love to vote for liberals will recoil at all the violence and mayhem. A lot of these liberal women will flock to the GOP. All Trump has to do is talk about safety for the children The idea that the red states are going to vote for anarchy in the blue states is preposterous.
