The Trump administration claims to be fighting an existential battle against insurrectionary forces in Los Angeles. In truth, it created this cynical spectacle itself, deploying troops and inflaming tensions to distract from its policy failures.

    It really is perfect for trump. He can show how tough he is to his voters and use the National Guard to force his rules.

    As a European (UK) we have some devolution from Westminster that allows Scotland, Northern Ireland, and Wales to set their own rules on somethings, in a similar way to the federal govt in Washington Vs states rights.
