I think House Intelligence Chairman Rep. Adam Schiff has lost his mind, he’s now thrown Russia into the BLM riots storyline.
Last week, we witnessed a shift from Democrats they went from saying the riots are “mostly peaceful” protests occurring around the nation to they are Trump’s fault. No doubt they were horrified by their internal polling and the beating they took during the Republican National Convention.
Joe Biden has come out blaming President Trump for the violence.
Donald Trump has been president for almost four years.
The temperature in the country is higher, tensions run stronger, divisions run deeper.
And all of us are less safe because he can’t do the job of the American president.

Of course, we know that the day before a President Trump supporter was gunned down by a person that declared himself “100% Antifa,” Portland Mayor Ted Wheeler turned down the President’s offer to send National Guard troops to help.
Today, I sent this letter via email to @realDonaldTrump declining his recurring offer to aid Portland by sending federal enforcement to the city. https://t.co/W85EDfriyk pic.twitter.com/CC1IWTp5k8

A little over 24 hours later Mayor Wheeler attacked the President.
Portland Mayor @tedwheeler goes on divisive, lie-filled campaign-style attack on @realDonaldTrump to try and shift blame for recent violence and anarchy in his city onto the President. This is what failed leadership looks like. RESIGN! pic.twitter.com/X9Dl86muho

For weeks we have heard the media and Democrats tell us that Antifa doesn’t exist and these riots are “peaceful protests.” We all watched as the press and Democrats freak out when President Trump used the National Guard to stop the riots in DC and Federal Law Enforcement officers secured the courthouse in Portland.
With that talking point dead on arrival for Democrats first thing Monday morning Adam Schiff goes on CNN and blames civil unrest on Russia.
These people are truly out of their minds.
They ask if RUSSIA is to blame for Violent Riots before they ask about the media’s role or politicians who encourage this behavior like Maxine Waters.. pic.twitter.com/KmK9KRnIN2

Honestly, I think the Democrats have no idea what to say and they are just throwing out talking points hoping one sticks. Below is a great example, on Sunday Portland Mayor Wheeler blames the President than on Monday morning appears on CNN and said he’s willing to reach across the aisle because “somebody’s got to do it.”
He just sent a letter Friday saying he didn’t want federal help from Donald Trump. https://t.co/zFqXXzOC2V
