They should focus more on China that want to interfere in the 2020 election to help Biden win, China is a bigger threat to US world dominance than Russia is by a very wide margin
I wonder if you say this because Russia allegedly supports Trump while China likely doesn't.

Would China stop being a threat if it was pro-trump?

Patriot Prayer founder: Dead man in Portland was a supporter

https://m.startribune.com/1-killed-as-trump-supporters-protesters-clash-in-portland/572266302/


The founder of Patriot Prayer, a right-wing group whose supporters have frequently clashed with left-wing protesters in Portland, Oregon, said Sunday that the man fatally shot in Oregon's largest city was a supporter of the group and a "good friend."

Joey Gibson, head of the group based in Washington state, said he was also in Portland on Saturday night when supporters of President Donald Trump clashed with Black Lives Matter protesters in the streets of downtown. Gibson arrived at the scene of the shooting shortly after it happened and was briefly corralled in a nearby gas station by angry protesters.

Joe Biden says in a new statement: “Shooting in the streets of a great American city is unacceptable. I condemn this violence unequivocally. I condemn violence of every kind by anyone, whether on the left or the right. And I challenge Donald Trump to do the same.”

What has Trump being doing all day, he has been retweeting posts from right wing boards, thus encouraging the protests and violence.

Skylor Jernigan frequently attends Patriot Prayer rallies and has been arrested in connection with a shooting at a protest downtown.

Police have arrested a suspect in connection with a shooting during a counterprotest Saturday in downtown Portland.

Skylor Noel Jernigan, 27, was charged with two counts of unlawful use of a weapon, menacing, reckless endangerment, and discharging a firearm in the city.

Portland police executed a search warrant and seized a handgun, which police believe was used in connection with the shooting.

Trump the Russian Agent.


In damning comments made on television in 2014, Donald Trump told Fox News that “total hell” would make America “great” again.

The then TV host made an appearance on Fox & Friends in February 2014 to condemn Obamacare and Americans who were not in work, whilst backing Vladimir Putin’s Russia.

“You know what solves it? When the economy crashes, when the economy goes to total hell and everything is a disaster,” Mr Trump said in 2014.

“Then you’ll have, you know, you’ll have riots to go back to where we were when we were great”.


Mr Trump’s comments in 2014 provide condemning evidence that, amid the Covid-19 pandemic and civil unrest in cities across the US, Mr Trump believes that chaos would restore the American dream.

“An American dream where you don’t have to do anything,” complained Mr Trump about Obamacare in 2014, after Republicans claimed it encouraged Americans not to work.

Despite the Affordable Care Act, known as Obamacare, providing many Americans with health coverage during the Covid-19 pandemic, Mr Trump still maintains that it should be overturned.

Mr Trump also commented on Russia during the same 2014 interview, and appeared to provide an early hint at his intention to run for president in 2016.

The now-US president told Fox News that Americans should give Russia a pass because "We're going to win something important later on and they won't be opposed to what we're doing."

After he said that Russia was “outsmarting” the US, Mr Trump added Mr Putin was not happy about bad press coverage.

“I know for a fact he’s [Putin] not happy about it. When I went to Russia with the Miss Universe pageant he contacted me and was so nice, you know I mean the Russian people were so fantastic to us”.

He added: “Their leaders, whether you call them smarter or whatever”.

However, I think Skyler was arrested for a different offence earlier in August.
He threatened the mayor of Portland and fired a gun at protesters. There are reports on some boards that he had ties to neonazi groups too


Skylor Jernigan, a right-wing protester who has carried firearms to Oregon rallies to show support for President Donald Trump, was arrested Wednesday by Portland police for allegedly firing two gunshots at a crowd of Black Lives Matter demonstrators.

Jernigan, 27, of Milwaukie, was charged with two felony counts of unlawful use of a weapon, along with three misdemeanors: menacing, recklessly endangering another person with a weapon, and discharging a firearm in the city.

He allegedly fired the two gunshots toward the crowd of political adversaries on Aug. 15, at the end of a conservative "flag wave" rally in downtown Portland. Freelance reporter Laura Jedeed identified him as the shooter in WW on Aug. 17. Two other witnesses at the scene corroborated her account.

I laugh when the some say he is not racist.

He is still fanning the embers of racism, hatred, division, revenge and violence. Today, he retweeted a video of a black guy pushing a girl to a stopped subway train after an alteration with the girl's friends. The video has a BLM/Antifa tag to it. It's a dog whistle.

Sadly, the video has nothing to do with either of the protesters. The guy in question was just a douchebag that commited the crime late last year.

75% of CFOs now predict Joe Biden will win the election: Global CFO Council survey - Chief Financial Officers

CNBC's Frank Holland reports on the CNBC Global CFO Council Survey results that show how some executives view Joe Biden's potential impact on the U.S. economy. For access to live and exclusive video from CNBC subscribe to CNBC PRO: https://cnb.cx/2NGeIvi

According to the most recent CNBC/Change Research Poll, fear over coronavirus has fallen in several key six swing states while at the same time President Donald Trump’s approval rating has seen an uptick. In Arizona, Florida, Michigan, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, Trump now has an approval rating of 48%, two weeks ago his approval was at 46%.

Despite an uptick in his job approval rating, President Trump is still trailing his Democratic presidential opponent Joe Biden. According to Nate Silver’s FiveThirtEight, Biden is currently favored to win the election — a 70 in 100 chance. Those numbers are in line with some of the world’s top business leaders. Seventy-five percent of the CNBC Global CFO Council say Joe Biden will win the U.S. Presidential election in November, according to the latest quarterly survey of members released on Friday. That same number holds true for North American-based members.

The CNBC Global CFO Council represents some of the largest public and private companies in the world, collectively managing more than $5 trillion in market value across a wide variety of sectors. The Q3 2020 survey was conducted between Aug. 7 and Aug. 22. among 40 global members of the council.

Outside of the Presidential horse race, 63% of North American respondents believe that neither the Senate or the House will flip, while 25% believe the Democrats will take back the Senate and 6% believe the Republicans will take back the House.

Global recession and the election

A struggling economy typically puts incumbent presidents at a disadvantage but this election cycle is taking place in a relatively rare economic time as it will be only the third to take place during a formal recession since World War II. The previous two recession time elections were in 1948 when Harry Truman won reelection, and in 1980 when Jimmy Carter lost reelection.

Trump faces a true uphill battle when it comes to the election in the midst of this particular recession. That’s because this one is projected to be the worst since World War II with the global economy shrinking by 5.2% and the U.S. by 6.1% this year, according to the the World Bank.

CFOs are anticipating a similar downturn in the global economy. Respondents said on average that 7 out of 11 global regions were in decline, the rest were stable. More than 62% said that the pandemic is the greatest external risk factor facing their business while 80% of respondents say the coronavirus will have a negative impact on their business. Only 7.5% percent say it will have a positive effect.

The impact of Covid-19 is the obvious leading factor as to why corporations are deciding to slash jobs. More than half of respondents say they will be decreasing the number of employees over the next 12 months; just under 32% of North America respondents anticipate a reduction in their workforce.

Read the links I posted of Russian covert subversive activities.

How many people have you seen protesting about the conditions they find themselves living under?
Is it BLM or white nationalist groups that are protesting about living conditions?

The protests are usually triggered by social injustices or racism.
