Fair point. There’s a hierarchy here.Well he couldn't very well one up the governor with his "I urge residents to comply with 8pm curfew and go home immediately." now could he?

Since 1979 there has been 20 years of republican governors, 17 years of DFL governors, and 4 years of WWF governorsI'm a born & raised Minnesotan. There's really two Minnesota's - Metro area and out-state with the former dominating politics since I can remember (and let's be honest, way before that).
Which will only resonate with his hardened base.At the end of the day-- this is just fodder for Trump reelection campaign videos....
Can we all agree the Hogan years were the best?Since 1979 there has been 20 years of republican governors, 17 years of DFL governors, and 4 years of WWF governors
But yes, the state legislature has been overwhelmingly democrat, as has city politics
Yeah, I should have stuck with the local level angle. Minneapolis city council is 12-1 in favor of DFL with the 1 being a Greenie.Since 1979 there has been 20 years of republican governors, 17 years of DFL governors, and 4 years of WWF governors

You know that's not a typo right?Can we all agree the Hogan years were the best?
Law & Order, Nixon redivivus.At the end of the day-- this is just fodder for Trump reelection campaign videos....
I’m not sure what this has to do with anything.Yeah, I should have stuck with the local level angle. Minneapolis city council is 12-1 in favor of DFL with the 1 being a Greenie.
As far as I can tell, Hennepin County commissioners are all DFL except for, kind of surprisingly, Jeff Johnson (Republican candidate for governor).
This has everything to do with governance. I would think that's self-evident.I’m not sure what this has to do with anything.
Let's imagine a world where the governor and mayor and city council are republicans.This has everything to do with governance. I would think that's self-evident.
Can you put an O/U on zero percent?What’s the O/U on the Minneapolis Mayor resigning/forced out, Sunday 12pm? What a complete clown my god.
Exactly!! This is an absolute nightmare for Dems at this point. You have a President who has bungled a pandemic and makes gaffe after gaffe and now he gets this absolute gift dropped into his lap.Law & Order, Nixon redivivus.
I don’t know that anything changes, but tonight, the mayor and governor did a terrible job.Let's imagine a world where the governor and mayor and city council are republicans.
Is George Floyd still dead?
Are the police officers arrested?
Are there still riots?
I don't have any answers Andy, and I am skeptical that anyone does. You seem to be arguing that DFL is bad, and republican leadership would have stopped all this and we would be in some sort of utopia
Huh, even Nixon never saw tear gas at the White House.Exactly!! This is an absolute nightmare for Dems at this point. You have a President who has bungled a pandemic and makes gaffe after gaffe and now he gets this absolute gift dropped into his lap.
Was coming here to post this, this is outrageous why would this guy want to lead?What’s the O/U on the Minneapolis Mayor resigning/forced out, Sunday 12pm? What a complete clown my god.
Come on SID, a few hundred people outside the White House isn't earth shaking and is far outweighed by the images of people carrying cases of liquor and the looting of an Autozone. This is opportunism and has nothing to do with Floyd. This plays right into Trump's handsHuh, even Nixon never saw tear gas at the White House.
I'm not implying that either. I wouldn't like that either as a lot of the people on "my team" drive me just as crazy.Let's imagine a world where the governor and mayor and city council are republicans.

Netflix marathon, a good book, fly fishing.....lots of things to keep you busy.Was coming here to post this, this is outrageous why would this guy want to lead?
This whole thing is gonna play like a commercial for trump, how do you abandon your city?
What is “this”? Lack of police presence? Looting? Protesting systemic racism?This has everything to do with governance. I would think that's self-evident.
Yes. Yes. No.What is “this”? Lack of police presence? Looting? Protesting systemic racism?
Basically if you can’t handle your business, we’ll handle it for you.Uhhhh...what's this now?
The Pentagon has taken the rare step of putting military police on alert to come to Minneapolis, the Associated Press. Mayor Frey tweeted that more resources are being sent downtown.
They would like to, but you know, there is a curfew.Jeez, some of those homeowners better move their cars soon.
Really? Trump closed off travel into our country as early as one could expect with China and WHO covering up the virus.Exactly!! This is an absolute nightmare for Dems at this point. You have a President who has bungled a pandemic and makes gaffe after gaffe and now he gets this absolute gift dropped into his lap.
God/Alah/Zeus hates the Democrats.
Take the hook out of your mouth.But others don't care to scroll through anything that long. In fact, I recall one of the mods advising against posts that lengthy.
Don't let it get you too down. I still believe the overwhelming (and I mean overwhelming) number of people in our country think cops killing people is a bad thing, stealing is bad, and just want their neighbors to be safe even if they may disagree politically, economically, and spiritually.I don't think I can do this for another night, so I'm gonna check out for a bit. Sad to see the fires continue as it got later. Downtown protest and the initial protests on Lake were peaceful and the #######s breaking stuff won out again. Hope that loss of life is low or non-existent by the morning.
What is this Covid you speak of?Where is the handwringing reserved for the lake of the ozarks kids?
Most of the rioting is happening by ANTIFA and isn't authentic black lives matter. Why is media conflating the groups? There are in fact multiple videos where BLM asks these people to GO HOME.
He shouldnt have spat on the peaceful Kapernick display and ignored the policing problem.At the end of the day-- this is just fodder for Trump reelection campaign videos....
