Biden's weakness has emboldened the crazies.
Democrats must be puzzled.
After spending the last four years demonizing MAGA as domestic terrorists and anti-democratic to boot, they're now surrounded by real domestic terrorists and democracy haters, coming at them like the Wicked Witch of the West's flying monkeys.
According to the Free Press:
CHICAGO — In a room full of 450 far-left activists, a leader with the Freedom Road Socialist Organization kicks off a chant: “Protest is a right—not just for the rich and white.”
“Have you heard that the Democratic National Convention is coming to Chicago?” Joe Iosbaker asks the crowd. “Are we going to let ’em come here without a protest? This is Chicago, goddamn it—we’ve got to give them a 1968 kind of welcome.”
In 1968, the Democratic Convention in Chicago was a bloodbath, with 600 arrests in one street battle that was broadcast all over the world. And the group that met here last Saturday, in the local headquarters of the Teamsters Union, wants to repeat history when Joe Biden is named the presidential nominee at the DNC this August. They oppose the president they call “Genocide Joe” for backing Israel in its war against Hamas.
The radicals, from an old pro-Mao far-left organization that's been around for about 40 years in places like San Francisco, and always on the irrelevant fringe, are feeling their oats these days, much as the old Democratic Socialists of America got a new battery with the dawn of the Biden era.
FRSO views the violence and rioting last seen in Chicago in 1968 as a good thing, the heralding dawn of a glorious new revolution. August's convention where dotardly old Joe Biden is trotted out as the champion of democracy is the perfect occasion for mayhem.

There’s NO difference at all.
And I hope their party loses hugely in November!
Kinda defeats the purpose, no?
Damn, you're old...
I own the vinyl and it's on my phone.
IMHO Terry Kath's Chicago is so much better than Peter Cetera's Chicago
No question, but I will say, Peter was a monster on bass.
This is my favorite YT concert video.
Terry was a force of nature.

“…coming at them like the Wicked Witch of the West’s flying monkeys.”
——————-
It was the Wicked Witch of the EAST who was the baddie. East = Communist. The Witch of the west was good. West = Capitalism and Freedom.
Reminds me, i need a few thousand more rounds for my weapons...
And VBIED's. Just a 4 hour drive from Dearborn to Chicago... Hamas, BLM and Antifa, Oh Boy! The left has been fanning the flames of anti-Americanism for decades.

The REAL "axis of evil".
Oh I think it will be much worse as the current mayor of Chicago will do nothing to curb or rein in the chaos.
Domestically, absolutely. AKA the base of the Democrat Party. Yet despite the obvious connections between these groups, the FBI is desperately trying to gaslight Americans that it is “domestic right-wing extremists” that are allying with islamist terrorists.
“How will anyone tell ?”
Exactly. Who is more crazy? The crazies inside or the crazies outside?
This will be far worse than 1968. Chicago has an incompetent Mayor, they have decimated the police. and they no longer have “Boss” Richard Daley to keep control. The over-under on the body count should be an interesting number.
CPD will be in passive mode. Only will protect their own and who blames them? If they engage in even the remotest indication of proactive crowd control/riot mitigation, they will be ones persecuted/prosecuted when things go sideways.
