Chaos has erupted in Minneapolis and is now spilling over to other cities and there are some who think martial law is near. They may well be right, and I long ago predicted violence and revolution if the Left saw their "victory" evaporating under a sensible government.

I am mindful of the Star Wars movie Revenge of the Sith. When Master Windu is attempting to arrest Chancellor Palpatine aka Darth Sidious Palpatine calls on Anakin Skywalker for help "I told you...the Jedi are taking over". He had been carefully filling Skywalker's mind with lies about how the Jedi were plotting to overthrow the government, when in fact it was he who was plotting the overthrow all along. When Skywalker stopped Windu Palpatine then murdered him, and had issued orders to murder all the Jedi. Skywalker, now Darth Vader, led the attack, slaughtering everyone in the Jedi temple, most of whom were just children.

That is what the Left is attempting to do with these riots. They are, like the Dark Sith Lord Darth Sidious, the ones who are attempting to seize power and they are accusing the Administration of doing what they themselves are doing. IF Trump declares martial law they will say "we told you; Donald Trump is taking over!" when in fact it is THEIR insurrection, their coup.

That's why they want Trump to overreact. But if he underreacts they will win too. 

I'm glad I don't have Mr. Trump's job.
