Which is more likely? @realDonaldTrump hopes by brandishing the military, clearing out protesters from Lafayette Park and hoisting the Bible, he would calm an anxious nation. Or: @realDonaldTrump sees a chance to ignite a backlash and, with it, his re-election chances. — PolitiTweet.org

More wisdom from Bryan Stevenson, founder or the Equal Justice Initiative, ⁦@eji_org⁩; author or Just Mercy; from a classic #AxeFiles that has particular relevance and meaning in this moment.

We are now months into the pandemic and passage of the first relief act YET a third of those who qualify and NEED unemployment benefits haven’t received them. Don’t TELL us what a great job you’re doing, Mr. POTUS. Actually DO it. https://t.co/j68ZtBUq1g — PolitiTweet.org

.@JoeBiden just gave a very powerful speech in Philly. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Incredible. Tear gas & rubber bullets, horses & batons to break up a peaceful crowd across from the WH apparently to clear them out all so the @POTUS could stage a photo op, holding up a bible. at St. John’s Episcopal Church. He did not go inside to pray for forgiveness. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

There is absolutely no doubt that what the @POTUS just said, and the images of the military police in moving on a peaceful crowd, will further inflame an already dangerous situation. — PolitiTweet.org

“America is founded on the rule of law.” Just don’t apply it to HIM. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

You have to wonder if this isn’t exactly the split screen @realDonaldTrump wanted when police were ordered to advance on a peaceful crowd just before he spoke. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

What seems clear on TV is that a peaceful protest was underway in Lafayette Park across from the White House. And, inexplicably, the police moved on the crowd, with tear gas and batons. — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

I wonder if the @POTUS composed his thoughts about how “weak” the governors are on the front lines from his hardened bunker underneath the WH? What the country needs now is wisdom and empathy, not craven, faux tough posturing for an election. https://t.co/ExH4cA3IoR — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

Perfect symbolism. If ever the country needed the occupant of the White House to shed light, and not heat, now is the time. Sadly, the lights are out. https://t.co/5i8e60Ipcv — PolitiTweet.org

That’s @eji_org. He and they do important work! — PolitiTweet.org

Given events, I am re-releasing my 2018 #AxeFiles w/Bryan Stevenson, founder of the Equal Justice Initiative, eji_org, whose powerful words below speak to the awful legacy that has led America to this moment.

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

You’re the president of a country in crisis and you see nothing but opportunity—to inflame MORE division, score cheap political shots and, most remarkably, to demand THANKS for your “leadership.” #unworthy — PolitiTweet.org

David Axelrod @davidaxelrod

As destructive as the violence and looting have been, the outpouring of volunteers across the country who have turned out to clean up their communities in the aftermath has been truly inspiring. https://t.co/6hNN7PyCdx — PolitiTweet.org

All over this country, people have protested the horrendous killing of George Floyd in a moving, national demonstration of revulsion. But the nights have been seized by anarchists & looters who appear to have entirely different agendas & only harm the cause of change and reform. — PolitiTweet.org

It is easy to look strong and competent on a reality TV show. Reality is harder. We are feeling the absence of strong, competent leadership right now, when we desperately need it. — PolitiTweet.org

As many times as I’ve seen it-and it has been replayed often-I can’t watch the video of George Floyd begging for his life without feeling sick. https://t.co/MgW7SW3rfh — PolitiTweet.org
