One of the scenes I remember most vividly from the Minneapolis riots was a Black woman who lived in the neighborhood where the rioting took place. It was the day after rioters and looters had moved through and on to other areas of the city like a plague of locusts. She stood there looking at the burned out Target store and others in her area that had been torched and sadly lamented where would she now shop? Victor Davis Hanson apparently saw it too and is noticing a phenomena that is being ignored or suppressed in these urban areas where poor victims of the rioting abound and are shifting toward Trump. He asks a great question of undecideds in the Black community:Most of the white Antifa mob and its wannabe thousands do not live with minorities and did not grow up with them or go to school with them. Do working-class African Americans enjoy watching white college kids or baristas in knee pads with umbrellas or teachers on full paid sabbaticals or Zoom half-days, ordering their local Target to be torched?
