Why would Soros, China and company be pushing these riots?

Because they work. The mass terrorism has damn near every company in the country bowing to them.

Leftism is inherently totalitarian, and it can never be anything else. They don't care if this hurts them in the election, because just like last time they have no intention of respecting an outcome that isn't in their favor. They are acting in bad faith.

They're doing all this huffing and puffing precisely because they intend to force submission, no matter what.
