You're being narrow. We can understand what he's doing and still disagree ffs

Legitimate question for you, not rhetorical: What is the alternative?

I'm not super happy about doing it either, but if he doesn't try to implement some sort of actual change, it's way too easy for his "lack of action" to be weaponized to sway public opinion. I'm all for sending in the national guard and shutting these riots down with ABSOLUTE FORCE, but I don't see why him doing this Executive Order (as long as the details aren't catered to BLM/Leftists) won't make that even easier to do. One could easily argue he took action to reform policy but still felt the need to shut down the violence with force.

The 4 star General who apologized for being seen in public with Trump?

He should have been fired immediately upon saying that.

He's damned if he does, damned if he doesn't. Trump cannot win, period. No matter what he does, it will never be good enough.

This is really the case and he knows it. Why not take the opportunity to move the pieces in your favor though? Its his move and not moving is going to be noted as a move as well. Just ignoring it will not do anything. Taking action that would benefit all will be a great move. The part about getting police better situated to handling mental health and moving it off their plate where possible alone is good for the country.

I don’t want to sound like a fanatic but over the years theres been a few things now that GEOTUS has done where at first I was like “wtf” but then a month or two goes by and suddenly something else happens and the first thing all of a sudden makes a lot more sense.

I’m just learning now what faith means and I have to say, I have faith that the man knows what he’s doing and that what he’s doing is the right thing. Even if I don’t understand it.

That’s not to say I don’t do everything I can to keep myself informed and form my own opinions but yeah take it for what it is I guess
