Street brawls broke out last night as protesters burned the Stars and Stripes during President Donald Trump's $15million fundraising visit to Los Angeles.

There were furious skirmishes outside the Beverly Hills Hotel on Tuesday when anti-Trump demonstrators were set upon while trying to set the US flag on fire.

Riot police were deployed to deal with the violence and a massive baby blimp of the President flew over Palo Alto as he met with wealthy Republicans to pick up funds for his 2020 re-election bid.

Burning the Flag should count as fighting words.

No doubt Antifa sprinkled with a myriad of second rate Hollywood “elite” who have been driven mad and foam at the mouth by the common sense and outstanding success of he who is most favored by the people, our beloved President, Donald Trump

Trump forcefully — and peacefully — bringing his message into socialist territory. Love it! That’s what is going to get him a second term. Not personal attacks.

No. The right may act out in some way, but it won’t be the same way. Rioting is not their style. They are a bit more serious about it.

I'm surprised at the denigrating description for antifa.

At some point it is going to require something more bold than a ballot box.

...joyous Trump supporters and raging self-styled anti-fascists...


Joyous versus raging. Finally an accurate characterization.

The Democrats and media are going to get someone killed. Perhaps that is the plan...

Oh, I have no doubt that is the plan. Remember the guy that ran over that lady in NC?

Denigrating description for AntiFA ( I say anti First Amendment) is from Daily Mail, a British newspaper. They are not Trump fans but do report actual news. US propaganda media would not be so honest.
