Here’s a smart move from the president, considering nothing he did or said would be OK with Democrats or the mainstream media. When a reporter Monday asked White House Press Secretary Kayleigh McEnany if President Trump condemned the actions of 17-year-old Kyle Rittenhouse, who shot and killed two and wounded another after being chased down by a mob in Kenosha, Wisc., the president could have tried to placate the mob, but instead, McEnany says he’s not weighing in. We’re fine with that because there’s so much we don’t know, though it didn’t take long for social media pundits to immediately declare Rittenhouse a white supremacist.

Two mostly peaceful “protesters.”
Cole Leiter, communications director for the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, decided he’d weigh in and declare that Republicans are fueling violence from the White House after voting overwhelmingly against bipartisan police reform.
Not only did Republicans vote overwhelmingly against bipartisan police reform, but they are fueling violence from the White House. https://t.co/c7f3QOGhg0

That's a take.

oh goodness. After watching Dems torpedo a police reform bill introduced by @TimScottSC, this is one heck of a hill to die on.
But such is Twitter, I suppose. https://t.co/lhFzIWbPlR

This is quite a take when Tim Scott’s police reform bill was filibustered by Dems.

Gaslighting again… it was dems that blocked @SenatorTimScott police reform bill. To make matters worse sen. Scott told the dems he was open to any changes and wanted a dialogue but dems refused and voted it down.

“Democrats were not interested in compromise,” say the Washington Post. Sen. Tim Scott even tweeted, “I offered Democrats the chance to offer AT LEAST 20 amendments. They walked out.”
What planet do you live on? Are your pants on fire? Holy schnikies man is this a bold face lie. How do you sleep with that conscience? (I imagine pretty well since you obviously do not have one.) memo @TimScottSC

Black senator Tim Scott introduced a police-reform bill and Democrats wouldn't support it, purely because it would have given a win the Republicans.
Keep up the lies. Trump is gaining independent voters by the hour.

This is embarrassing. Your party is burning down just like your cities. Nobody believes you.

If Democrat voters weren’t constantly lied to they would ask if their elected officials really thought Trump was responsible for the riots…..
why didn’t they mention it even once during their 4 day “America sucks, America is evil” Democrat Convention?
