One video is not going to cut it.
The Democrats have an opportunity to show leadership here and this is a HUGE opportunity for Biden to go into Portland with the state and local government and LEAD. I really wish he would and turn around this narrative.

You think they would listen to Plantation Joe and his keystone cop?
And if they don't then it has nothing to do with him, now does it.
It does if folks think he has the stones to get it done.
Does he have to say it over and over for it to be true? Think that is a right-wing tactic when they attempt to make lies turn into truth.
One simple idea would be to, once things are calmed down, is to have the protestors come up with a delegation to send to the negotiating table and have that be televised (unless there are specific issues where this or that personal detail may be discussed, of course) and if one of the groups does not show up (perhaps the police unions don't like this idea and won't shut up like has happened with consent decree situations in the past), then that will be on tv as well.
But I would play hardball and have the protestor delegation just sit there, on camera, staring at an empty room if it goes that far.
This is something that needs to be marketed very viscerally since that is what the US public responds to,
He is not in control of the government, what do you expect him to do exactly? Now When he is he will get done what is within his power.

In Wisconsin, before the Kenosha riots, approval of BLM dropped 13 points. More and more people will start to equate BLM with violence.
Their leaders need to speak out as well.
I think the problem is that the black lives matters protesters are tired of being told to calm down and the promised change and reforms never comes.
Absolutely true.Voters in WI are already turning to the Republicans due to the violence in looting in Kenosha and around the country. Unless Biden comes out with strong messaging against the violence, looting, and rioting, he will lose to Trump, and likely in a landslide.

The Democrats are on the wrong side of this, and the tide is turning. It's one thing to claim people have a right to protest, but when you are relatively quiet about the bad elements of all of these events, then Trump's "Law & Order" message will resonate with people who want to live in a safer America.

I don't think he will. I think Biden will fail this test and hand the election to Trump.
You might be correct. I tend to ask isn't this happening under Trump's watch? He is the Law and Order President.
Yes, I know that the majority of the current problems are in Democratic managed cities. Makes me wonder about Trump's leadership and the failure to work with the other side.

The Iron Fist approach hasn't worked for Trump, riots are still ongoing. Why would echoing Trump's failed approach help Biden?

If it's a Democrat city, the only way he will work with them is to make things worse. He has already DEMONSTRATED that as recently as a month ago and if it's a natural disaster, Democratic cities and states can suck the big one, as he has ALSO demonstrated in real time, as he has instructed FEMA to DENY fire aid to California because we didn't support him....HIS WORDS.
the other side has to ask him to help before he can do very much other than guard federal buildings.
it speaks volumes that they refuse to do so.\
I think the dems have already lost on this issue, by avoiding it. imagine what happens if they DO now ask for Trump's help...
DID ANYONE see Don Lemon the other night saying "we have tio stop the rioting and looting... it's hurting the POLLS"

Trump says a lot of things that he does not go through with. I worked wildland fire as a career. CA got their money.
From your linked article
"No evidence has surfaced to show that federal aid was withheld, despite public threats from Mr. Trump at the time"
It is when Trump makes statements like this that I question his leadership ability. imo, Trump is a terrible leader.
I stated that he HAS INSTRUCTED.
Thank you for supplying the needed information, namely that FEMA did its job regardless of Twumpy tantrums but he is instructing them AGAIN right NOW to deny aid. If CA gets its money anyway, great.
But it does not change the fact that Twumpy TRIED like Hell to prevent it, purely as part of his tantrums.
