Have you noticed the latest spin from the left? Leftists are actually blaming Donald Trump for the riots erupting across Democrat-run cities — shamelessly branding the chaos as “Trump’s America.”
This is their favorite scam: let their cities spiral into lawlessness, then point the finger at Trump and hope no one notices who’s really in charge. It’s as predictable as it is pathetic. And, of course, the media eagerly plays along, ignoring the masked thugs torching buildings and attacking cops — because blaming Trump is easier than admitting that their own policies lit the match.
It wasn't Trump supporters who ravaged Minneapolis, Portland, Ore., or Seattle back in 2020. No, that was the handiwork of the Left's own activist class, using the death of George Floyd as an excuse to burn down buildings, loot businesses, and kill people.
Let's cut through the sanctimonious sludge and face the unvarnished truth about political protests. The left loves to peddle the fantasy that civil unrest is some kind of Trump-exclusive plague, as if chaos was magically born the moment he stepped into the Oval Office. That's a flimsy, worn-out line — pure propaganda that collapses the second you take an honest look at reality.
Conservatives don’t burn down cities when they don’t get their way.
Open borders turned into a national disaster, flooding small towns and fueling a rise in crime. Vaccine mandates became a blunt instrument of government control, steamrolling personal freedom in the name of “public health.” And let’s not forget the weaponization of the federal government: Joe Biden’s DOJ going after conservatives, targeting political opponents, and even trying to take down Trump himself.

But did we riot? Did we torch buildings or clash with police? No. There were no conservative mobs, no bricks thrown, no chaos in the streets. We spoke out, we showed up peacefully, and we got back to work. That’s not apathy; that’s restraint. That’s discipline. And the contrast couldn’t be clearer.
Let’s rewind to Trump’s first term. After his 2016 victory, the left erupted — not just with protests, but with violence.
After Trump won the 2016 election, leftists rioted for days. In Portland alone, 4,000 protesters marched downtown chanting “We reject the president-elect!” before storming into the Pearl District, smashing windows, kicking cars, and knocking out power. And no, the left never accepted the election; it promised to “resist,” and it did violently. Even Trump’s inauguration was marred by street riots. Six police officers were injured, and over 200 rioters were arrested. CNN dared to describe it as “a morning of peaceful protests” before acknowledging the “ugly street clashes” that followed.
The unrest didn’t stop in D.C. In cities like Seattle, Dallas, Chicago, and even overseas in Berlin and London, anti-Trump demonstrations broke out. This wasn’t protesting; it was a nationwide temper tantrum. And we saw it again in 2020, and again today.
The Left still hasn’t learned a thing. Leftists unleash chaos in the streets, coddle the rioters, and then — with a straight face — try to pin the blame on Donald Trump. It’s insulting, it’s dishonest, and it’s cowardly. These aren’t Trump’s cities. They’re Democrat strongholds, run top-to-bottom by the very people now crying foul. The truth is simple: The Left has a long and well-documented history of political violence, and leftists lash out whenever things don’t go their way. But instead of owning the mess they’ve made, they do what they always do: deflect, distract, and demonize the one man they fear most.
Sorry, but the American people aren’t buying it anymore. You don’t get to burn down the country and blame the fire on the guy holding the fire extinguisher.
