Chuck Rocha: LA Protests Are the Chaos that Trump Loves Because We Are Not Talking About Big Beautiful Bill

‘This checks all the marks of what Donald Trump wants to be talking about’

EXCERPT:

ROCHA: "If this was about immigration and we were talking about how the system is broken and what ICE is doing right now, this protest would be warranted if it was doing that. But what this plays into — and listen to me, Democrats — right into Donald Trump‘s hand. In the last election, Audie, the Republicans spent $800 million telling the American public that we were being invaded by immigrants from other countries. They made it the central theme of their campaign. This checks all the marks of what Donald Trump wants to be talking about, which is immigration, protests, cops being beat, folks burning cars. This is the chaos that he loves. Because guess what we‘re not talking about? We‘re not talking about the big, beautiful bill. We‘re not talking about 13 million people being kicked off of health care. We‘re not talking about anything in Washington. We‘re talking about the sweetest spot of all of his issue sets, which is immigration, law and order, and Los Angeles. And when you throw in Gavin Newsom, it's just a cherry on top for this administration."
