I get your point, but these would be happening regardless of who was president. They will also continue to happen once Biden is president if things dont change.

We don't know that either of those things are true. We do know this didn't happen when Biden was in the White House and it's now happening with Trump in the White House.

Has Trump offered any message of peace or unity? Has he exhibited any substantive leadership?

He screams LaWaNdOrDeR as cities burn,and avoids any substantive solution while he blows dog whistles

That is a complete unprovable BS statement. You absolutely do not know that.

To be fair, some of thenimages he has shown aren't even from America. I saw that some of the riot pictures he has used are from Spain.

I don’t think one potus is gonna make individual cops less brutal, but I do think any other potus would have had more of a sense of leadership, and more of a message of unity, once the shit hit the fan.

Likely. But that wasn't going to stop the initial actions that ocurred to set off this firestorm. It perhaps could have been mitigated by a better leader

What's BS is making the statement at all because there is absolutely no way to prove it is true or not.

Still waiting for Trump to condemn this violence.

Instead he’s Tweeting that Joe Biden needs to. Huh?

Maybe we would have actual police reform passed and those Minnesota cops wouldn't be cops any more due to laws requiring actual acountability for bad behavior.

Maybe instead of the tax changes by Trump to flow billions into the coffers of the ultra wealthy, there would be tax changes to flow that same money to communities in need, reducing desperation, tension, etc...

It's like saying if one shot changed in a basketball game that everything after would have happened exactly as it did. It's foolish.

You think everything would be the same no matter who is President?

If Trump wasn't President then Clinton would be and she would have been President for more than 3 years when Floyd died, not "a couple months".

Police reform wouldnt have been considered without a catalyst.

A) We don't know "these would be happening regardless of who was president". Very good chance they would be but we don't know it to be true - and never will.
What we do know is Donald trump PURPOSELY divides people knowing full well what the affects can be - and often are - and he takes pride in doing it.
FUCK HIM!
B) You are 100% that they will continue to happen if Biden becomes President - if things don't change.
I assume you realize that's one of the most obvious statements you have ever made.
Things don't change - unless they change.

ummm...do you not remember anything pre george floyd?

Obama was president when Mike Brown was killed and there were protests/riots in ferguson and other places around the country.

So i think that is pretty good evidence to back up my statement that these would be happening regardless of who was president.

Yes, racism would still be happening regardless of who the president is/was.
The thing it seems you may be having difficulty comprehending is the reasoning for ALL of the various groups/factions that have been protesting the past 6 months.
You, me, anyone, everyone would be foolish to pretend we fully understand. We don't.
NOT ALL of these groups that are protesting/marching/rioting/ are doing as such because of what has happened with the police and their treatment of Black people.

Like I have said (and anyone who has a working brain in their head that isn't completely brainwashed would realize) is that we currently have a President who PURPOSELY does more to fan the flames than put them out.

The BLM organization/movement originated in 2013....largely in response to George Zimmerman being acquitted.

You remember who was president then right?
