[Afternoon update]
The LA chaos is an illusion, and Trump will not fall for it.
I know the narrative we are supposed to be talking about is anti-immigration protest, but I have a few questions:
Why does the phrase LA Riot seem so familiar?
Why is it not surprising to turn on the TV and see vehicles on fire, people looting the Nike Store stealing Air Jordans, while a person talks about this being a peaceful protest?
This seems like a man-made event that is occurring in a singular place called Paramount California, so why are people calling this a test of Donald Trump?
To be fair, I heard a similar riot was attempted in NYC, but NYPD shut it down and arrested people. Other than a few news stories, it was over in a couple of hours. Therefore, I think this is a local LA story and local leadership failing to provide civil order.
Final question, this is the second big news event of LA civilian leadership failing to protect the citizens and businesses in LA. How much do they pay these leaders to fail them?
Cybertruck is the only autonomous armored vehicle on the market. Google should pivot to WayMRAP.
For an armored vehicle, it seems rather lightly protected.
