When did Democrat lead violence start?

Some say 2020. But it goes much farther back.

The year 2020 is memorable for many things, chief among which was the COVID-19 virus and its disastrous consequences for health, liberty, and economic well-being. But seemingly lost in the mix was something also sinister and devastating: months of rioting in 140+ cities across America that resulted in $1-2 billion in property damage and at least 25 deaths. Despite this toll, many in the so-called mainstream media (MSM) continue to promote the canard that the riots were ‘mostly peaceful.’

Perhaps the reason for the media deception lies in the fact that the majority of those organizing, training, equipping, and fomenting the riots were members of two groups allied with the same Democratic Party which shares a bed with the MSM. Black Lives Matter (BLM) and the nascent Anti-Fascist (Antifa) movement had their DNA secreted all throughout the violence.

Like a three-legged stool, the MSM, the rioters, and Democratic politicians propped up one another and engaged in tortured logic to justify the destruction. Some, to include the current Vice President of the United States, Kamala Harris, went so far as to encourage raising bail money for the rioters.

Did the American Democratic Party suddenly discover violence in 2020 as the means to a political end? Hardly.

When the Democratic Party fails to sell its ideas and win at the ballot box, it often resorts to violence to strongarm citizens into supporting its political causes. We’ve seen this throughout history and we’re watching it play out now. The rioting in 2020 was designed to intimidate voters and sway the November election under the guise of social justice. The screeching hysteria on the left to expose and label as domestic terrorists anyone who supports President Trump is an extension of this groupthink.
