Is there any national plan in the works to address police brutality? No. Is Trump making speeches to assure people that he is working on a plan to root out racism and violent cops from the nations police forces? No. Instead, he's talking about ramping up with more force. It's disgusting that we need a good leader right now and don't have one in this country. Hopefully the governors can do something, but it seems Trump is pushing them to create more violence.

see a chance to make them look bad by starting something. Like, for instance, the "very fine person" who ran over Heather Heyer.

In Minneapolis it looked like all the rioters were white while most of the peaceful protesters were black (only a few white allies. But people see what they are looking for.
