Trump will point out that the May jobs numbers were the greatest in modern history, giving evidence that the economic shutdowns didn’t put an end to American capitalism. Quite the contrary — as Democrats fear, the economy is about to roar back to life in the third quarter, even despite the stupidity playing out on the streets of our cities. Trump might very well discuss that subject, as well — noting that in their zeal to keep their base voters desperate and dependent on government, urban Democrat machine politicians have all but encouraged the lawlessness of Seattle, Minneapolis, Santa Monica, and Chicago, and what lagging economic recoveries might exist will be almost solely attributable to bad blue-state government. After all, when Lori Lightfoot trashes Walmart and then stands by as her voters loot and burn its locations in South Chicago, exactly how is she going to lure them back into those neighborhoods?
He’ll also talk about Antifa as a domestic terror group. If he’s smart, Trump will change that to say Antifa is an international terrorist group and that its funding sources are foreign as well as domestic. Trump would be echoing statements by Attorney General Bill Barr in so saying, as Barr noted last week that foreign actors are helping to gin up violence on America’s streets. Additionally, Trump could reference the fact that the Chinese Communist Party is now playing up the rioting in American streets as a twisted answer to the demonstrations in Hong Kong, which fell off the front page thanks to the coronavirus.
Most of all, though, Trump, can, should, and probably will point out that to the extent there is “systemic racism” afoot in American cities that leads to incidents like the one which befell the unfortunate Mr. Floyd, those cities are run almost exclusively by Democrat political machines like the one pushing Biden’s incompetent presidential campaign.
