    Here is how the left perceived Trump's help, they compared him to Hitler.


    Black Lives Matter Chicago Sues to Prevent Occupation by Trump’s Paramilitaries

    Taking a page from Hitler’s Brownshirts, Donald Trump is sending his secret paramilitary forces into U.S. cities to terrorize the population. Ostensibly designed to “restore order” in the wake of massive uprisings against white supremacy and police brutality, this move appears to have a more cynical purpose lurking behind it: Trump’s desire to tar Democrat-led cities with a false narrative to boost his sagging poll numbers. But protesters are taking to the courts to rein in an out-of-control executive.

    In light of the brutal federal occupation of Portland, Oregon, Black Lives Matter (BLM) Chicago and other organizations filed a lawsuit on July 23 to prevent a Portland-style federal domination of their city. They allege that Trump is dispatching agents to Chicago in order to “intimidate and falsely arrest civilians who are exercising their constitutional right to speak and to assemble.” The groups seek an injunction to prohibit federal agents from “interfering in or otherwise policing lawful and peaceful assemblies and protests” in Chicago or arresting people without probable cause.

    The video link doesn't work, but given absolute Authority, I could go into Chicago and end the Violence in One Week. They know who the Bad guys are and I'd send in the Army and Round up and send um all to Guantanamo Bay detention camp, the ones who resist are killed. After 1 WEEK! anyone who so much lays a Pinkie Finger on Grandma and we'll hunt um down like the Animals they are and give um a Choice of Guantanomo for life or Death, which is a lot more then they give their victims.

    Retired folks are leaving for warmer climates. All over the world. Making the city won't make it warmer.

    But if someone is serious about doing something to make a city safer, they have to have the will of the people and the money to do it. Taxation is the answer - but one needs to be smart about it. Just like sin taxes designed to assist the healthcare industry, how about gun and ammunition taxes to assist law enforcement?

    I will never set foot in one of these places that denies my right to carry a self-defense device, and I don't see the logic in living in one. Move to a place where you can defend yourself from violent criminals and feel the freedom flow through your veins!

    Why do Democrats blame Republicans for crime in THEIR CITIES? If Democrats have controlled and governed crime ridden cities for decades how could the president be responsible? Leftist insanity strikes again and again and again. It’s just so pathetic.

    You just made all that up. Nice job.
    Unless you can prove they all encouraged violence. Go ahead. Prove it.

    He had 2 yrs of republican congress.
    He couldn't get anything done.

    It's why he got voted out. A liar is all he was.

    Hell, he got dems to side with him and the house passed $2000 stimulus. The R controlled Senate hasn't brought it up for a vote.

    Oh, like Texas? Nevada? All the places that gave mass killings to innocent people?

    BTW, notice how of the mass killers aren't shot by police if the killers are white? Just an odd coincidence, I am sure...

    Yeah, it’s amazing how black and Hispanic cops don’t shoot white people, only black people.

    You and your pals keep saying that. That is an intellectually weak response during those moments when you really don’t have an intellectual response.

    Trump doesn’t control what happens in democrat cities. In fact, they’ve sued him to make sure he doesn’t control what happens in democrat cities.

    You can blame Trump for what happens in democrat controlled cities when you give him control of those cities.
