"Domestic hate groups from several states will be attending."

Yes- they come to provoke trouble, hopefully leading to fistfights, injuries, teargas and shootings. They are fully on board with ICE and the local cops. The protesters alone without the outside agitators won't be enough, these will be peaceful rallies. They must be attacked by the hate groups, and then the ICE goons will have a field day.

Chump can't wait to invoke the Insurrection Act and that's what this is all about. How much is Pootie paying for all of this to happen?
