Jewel, Best Buy, and Target on Howard street in Evanston, IL have been trashed... Or so I'm told. Can anyone confirm if this is fake news?

I have heard that area has been hit but no confirmation.

I heard Best Buy, but didn't hear anything about the adjoining stores. But maybe that was just the report because Best Buy may be the most lucrative target, so it got the attention.

I heard firsthand about Best Buy, and secondhand about Target and Jewel.

Let’s just be honest. There is nothing that the guy could’ve done to make you happy.

Not true. Calling out the National Guard is a right thing to do. Arresting looters and rioters is the right thing to do.

Breaking up a peaceful WH demonstration with teargas so you can walk across the street for a photo op with a bible in front of a boarded up church is the sign of a deranged individual.

Now how about you be honest?

It is being reported Trump pulled this photo stunt because it came out he was hiding in the basement. So peaceful American citizens protesting get teargassed and shot with rubber bullets because the cowards ego was bruised. What a sick person!!!

Indeed, it is different. But when the president wants to go somewhere, you can disperse a crowd trying to block him. מלך פורץ גדר.

If Biden was the president and there were protesters blocking him, the same Secret Service would've used the same methods.

Come on, man! He is not going to use teargas and rubber bullets' on peaceful American citizens protesting.
I am amazed at how deep some will wade in the sewerage to defend this scumbag.
We have gone from "but officer" to "but officer he might speed".

Some of us live near [scheduled] protests/looting/rioting. Can we say some tehillim? How else to prepare?

Also, this is hardly "just shmoozing."

Hold on, you really think Trump personally ordered the Secret Service to use tear gas?

If you don't have the means to defend family and home I would lock everything up and stay with someone that does.

So I should not believe what he has been saying the last couple of days? He is the president. The buck stops with him.

Picture this:
*Sir, there are protesters blocking the street*
*Shoot them*
*Jared: No, FIL, we can't do that. Can we just push this trip off*
*I want them suffering, those scumbags. Can we use Chinese torture?*
*No. And besides, we can't do anything Chinese now.*
*Okay, just beat them all bloody*
*Sir, the most we can do is teargas*
*If you insist. But go fire yourself. And get me another well-done steak.*
