When the history of America is deliberately perverted to call it a country based on racism, then history has been destroyed. This is Critical Race Theory and Black Racism. The whole George Floyd narrative was bogus and created all that vandalism. A criminal was elevated to sainthood because he was black. Minnesota statistics show that blacks are nine times more likely to commit crimes than whites.
The George Floyd Narrative
The George Floyd Narrative (townhall.com)
The mainstream media wanted to push the idea of "systemic racism" but conveniently ignored the criminality, drug abuse, and non-cooperation with police. But there is a video which shows all this.
And since you are clueless about the significance of vandals destroying statues and monuments which show the history of America, then there is not point in talking to you. You have generally show ignorance about all of this, et you keep posting instead of just shutting up.

Psalm 119:165 Great peace have they which love thy law: and nothing shall offend them.
Samson used the jawbone of an ass to kill the Philistines. So what Trump says doesn't offend me, I love the Lord and if He chooses to use this man that is up to Him. I also am not offended by all those who are so offended by Trump. Instead I say "Thank you Lord for letting me see who the Philistines are".

Tone policing has gone wild.
Appealing to tone instead of the substance of the "attack" (or fact and/or objective opinion are now considered weapons) is a tool people use when they try to obfuscate or deflect the point. This seems to be way more common on one side of the aisle.
To be completely fair though, people do like to personally attack (absent fact/objective opinion) to obfuscate or deflect from the substance of the topic. This happens on both sides of the aisle.

I think it is revealing. Do you think the Israelites had a problem with Samson using the jawbone of an ass to kill Philistines? I don't think so. But what about the Philistines, do you think they had a problem? I think people's response to Trump helps us see who the Philistines are and who the Israelites are.
In person and on CC, when I see someone talk about "insurrectionists" on Jan 6, I like to ask them what attributes are unique to "insurrectionists" that do not also apply to a "rioter". It's met with crickets and/or deflection 100% of the time. There is no objective standard to differentiate the two...

What's the effective difference?
Trump's supporters stormed the US Capitol, attacked law enforcement officers, beat them, tased them, sprayed them with bear spray, chanted that they wanted to hang Mike Pence (a good Christian man), stole things, pooped on the floors, etc.
Trump now calls those people "patriots" and "hostages", and says he will set them free if elected.
It was Trump's name on their flags. It was Trump's name on their shirts. When they went to court many said they were acting on what they thought was Trump's behalf. The group who Trump previously told to "stand by"--the Proud Boys--were convicted of seditious conspiracy against the United States for their role in it.
So whatever one wants to call it is irrelevant in my view. It's what actually happened and Trump's response to it that matters. When it was going on, all he had to do was tell his supporters to stop immediately and condemn them. Instead, he just watched it all unfold without doing anything.
The Republican Party has to reject and move on from this unAmerican, dangerous insanity.
