No, I just think that if a fire is raging, maybe you make sure people don’t throw gasoline on the fire. You said it in the OP: people are rioting, a guy killed two men and made a bullshit self-defense claim, and the president is going along with it. The fuck do you think he’s coming to Kenosha for? The Mars Cheese Castle? Lighting up at the Bong State Recreation Area? And if he’s just going there for shit like that, I’m okay with that. The fact remains that he’s not just coming there for a little trip. This is a campaign stop in a volatile area, where he’s made his opinions clear, and if he somehow managed to pull a 180 and do something like this:
And - you have a riled up bunch claiming "Trump is doing nothing!" - and don't want him to show up...
Pick one.
Frankly, I’d sooner expect it to rain frogs. To be fair, that has happened far more times than Trump actually giving a thoughtful response to racial violence.
And the contradiction you cite is only a contradiction if you think there’s a possibility he’s actually going to help the situation. They’re protesting against systemic racism and Trump has made abundantly clear that he’s not only siding against them, but with white nationalist violence.
I do doubt he will help.
The left wouldn't allow it if he tried.

Can't let him do something good - somebody might vote for him!
