I think Mayor Lightfoot is going to be a one term mayor if she doesn't get a handle on this. Once again, stores were destroyed and/or looted last night in Chicago A Best Buy store was completely destroyed, the Apple store was practically wiped clean, etc.
Earlier in the afternoon, there was an incident in the Englewood neighborhood were police answered a call about a man with a gun. When police approached he fired at officers and they returned fire, wounding him and then taking him into custody.
Coordinated looting and other criminal activity is not going to solve anything.

Second poll in the Kansas Senate race has Democratic challenger Barbara Bollier just one point behind Republican incumbent whatshisface.
https://www.publicpolicypolling.com/...sultsAug20.pdfA new Public Policy Polling survey finds a competitive Senate race in Kansas, with
Republican candidate Roger Marshall leading Democratic candidate Barbara Bollier by
just 1 point (43-42). An earlier poll conducted by Public Policy Polling in March of 2020
found Marshall leading Bollier by a 10 point margin (47-37), suggesting that the primary
season was damaging to opinion of Marshall.

You're aware that many of us here aren't exactly pumped to be voting for Biden. We'll do so because we feel it's our responsibility in the face of another four years of Trump.
That being said, you're unsolicited criticisms have no positive value in the situation and, in fact may cause more harm than good by possibly influencing other people to not vote Democrat.
Not sure what your goal is by calling out his faults at this time. Either you're seeding the ground for 'I told you so's' over the next four years or you just want to complain.
Either way, you're not helping so how about saving the negativity until after the election?

It is.
It is. As I acknowledged earlier, there is a lot of subjectivity to this too, which can make it very nebulous.
And there's a lot of pressure and stakes too, which heightens emotions.
I'm just afraid that we are needlessly shooting ourselves in the foot by acting so defensively.
Thank you for conversing with me and for your patience.
I recognize that I, myself, may have been short or flippant during the convo and I appreciate you remaining objective and respectful.

'Unconstitutional slop:' Donald Trump spars with Ben Sasse, the GOP senator who attacked his executive order
Gotta love Republican infighting. Keep it up, boys!Seeking to tamp down Republican criticism of his new executive orders on the economy, President Donald Trump attacked GOP senator Ben Sasse on Monday as "Republican In Name Only" – the same senator who attacked his actions as "unconstitutional slop."
"RINO Ben Sasse, who needed my support and endorsement in order to get the Republican nomination for Senate from the GREAT State of Nebraska, has, now that he’s got it (Thank you President T), gone rogue, again," Trump said in a tweet with complex sentence structure.
“The pen-and-phone theory of executive lawmaking is unconstitutional slop," Sasse said shortly after Trump signed the orders on Saturday.
Sasse, a member of both the Senate Judiciary and Finance committees, said Obama "did not have the power to unilaterally rewrite immigration law" and Trump "does not have the power to unilaterally rewrite the payroll tax law."
