I think you guys need to do do every thing you can to destroy Trump and anger/turn/divide Americans further right now. The GOP working with the Democrats to oust Trump will turn out to be the worst decision/mistake they ever made politically.
Trump foments an insurrection, and this is your response? Really?
Dude, Black Lives Matters has such a narrow objective that conservatives could go along with it. It is not a call for soft treatment of offenders; it is for making cops less trigger-happy around black people. Excessive brutality that seems to have a racial undertone is not good for the hard-earned good will that many police want with the communities that they are charged "to protect and serve". I am basically a conservative on law and order, and I am satisfied that the more precarious one's economic and social position, the more one needs it as a defense from the worst people in the overall community.
...Joe Biden, by all accounts, is a devout Catholic. That may not be your favorite sort of Christian, but given a choice between a devout Catholic and someone as godless as Donald Trump who has no moral values, I'll take someone who has moral values that preclude the haughty, deceitful, corrupt way of Donald Trump.
