Katydid, I would love to know your thoughts about the Constitution. To many Americans like myself, the Constitution is the foundation of our nationality as Americans and of our government.
Civil unrest and freedom of speech are rights upheld by the Constitution's First Amendment, so long as demonstrations are peaceful. I think it's un-American to argue against that right as enshrined in the Bill of Rights.
You seem to be arguing for repression of freedom of speech and freedom of assembly.
Donald Trump didn't cause the economy to be humming along. The recovery from the Republican-engineered Great Recession of ca. 2008+ began under the Obama administration. Economic recovery also occurred in foreign countries that Trump could not have stick-handled.
Trump has badly mismanaged the Covid-19 pandemic. He's done nothing useful to get the economy back on track that I can make out. He's basically left pandemic care in the hands of the states. Trump's stimulus money hasn't made much of a dent in the current downturn, but is ballooning the national deficit: something that most conservatives care about.
Because they are trying to prevent his reelection. He had the economy humming along and his reelection chances looked pretty good. Then the pandemic happened and he was scrambling to get things back on track.
This civil unrest is their last ditch effort to try and destabilise the country.
Ironically, it may be helping his reelection chances.
