I and a whole lot of others agree with you, but IMHO he was letting all these Dem, and some Republican, Governors and Mayors show the country and the world where they stand on things. He’s been pretty clear from day one, that local problems demand local control and solutions. The Federal Monster doesn’t have to solve every problem, nor should it. These folks were chosen to lead, let them lead or fall flat on their faces.
Leading up to his re-election, he’ll be able to campaign not only for himself but some folks on the state level, as well. Nothing like bringing up the Republican candidate for Mayor or Governor, on stage, while holding a rally.
And people go to the polls, run to the polls, when ANGRY. It's a motivator, and I am angry that these Lefties have allowed this destruction and lawlessness. I'll bet I'm not the only one spitting nails.
The Veterans' Memorial Preservation and Recognition Act is a federal law that was passed in 2003. The legislation states that anyone caught attempting to "injure or destroy" a "structure, plaque, statue, or other monument" commemorating "the service of any person or persons in the armed forces of the United States" that is located on public property can face fines or a prison sentence of up to 10 years.
Meanwhile, priceless, irreplaceable statues were being torn asunder, destroyed and ruined by thoughtless thugs and mobs, while law enforcement did nothing, most likely they were told to stand down.
I wish Trump had come forward with this immediately.
.....This action is taken effective immediately, but may also be used retroactively for destruction or vandalism already caused. There will be no exceptions!

Exactly why I love this President! He gets it!
