Donald Trump spent Saturday encouraging his rabid supporters in a series of Tweets to rally at the White House for a MAGA night. Trump appeared eager to fan the flames of pain as Americans mourn the killing of 46-year-old George Flynn.
46-year-old Flynn was killed on Monday by a white police officer in Minneapolis. Officer Derek Chauvin knelt on Floyd’s neck for nearly eight minutes while three other Minneapolis Police Officers stood by and watched. All four officers were fired. On Friday, Chauvin was arrested and charged with third-degree murder and manslaughter.
While demonstrators gathered peacefully around the world, Trump seemed to revel in the potential for White Nationalist violence. This is thought, by many, to be a desperate effort to save his failing bid for reelection.
Trump posted, “The professionally managed so-called ‘protesters’ at the White House had little to do with the memory of George Floyd. They were just there to cause trouble. The @SecretService handled them easily. Tonight, I understand, is MAGA NIGHT AT THE WHITE HOUSE??? "
Trump in a series of four Tweets appeared to be calling on White Supremacist Accelerationists to take action on his behalf.
What Are Accelerationists?
Accelerationists are a subset of White Nationalists. Their goal is to cause chaos and destruction. Their favorite tactic is to exploit conflicts in an effort to bring America closer to a race war. Their ultimate goal is to collapse America’s government and then move America toward a White Supremacist a.k.a. white-dominated country. They see Trump as their leader.
Peaceful Protests Hijacked
As peaceful protests began on Friday around the United States, a disturbing trend began to emerge as white masked protesters infiltrated the peaceful protest groups and began to incite violence. People were mystified as to why CNN would be attacked by peaceful demonstrators. It wasn’t until Saturday that many realized that the White Supremacist Accelerationists had actually instigated the attack.
Tay Anderson who is an activist and Denver School Board member said of the masked white men, they were “purposely there trying to infiltrate and destroy things that we did not ask for.” Anderson said he saw masked white men handing out golf balls to break windows.
People realized that there were outside agitators a.k.a. Acelerationists in Minneapolis when a masked white male holding an umbrella was seen breaking windows of an Auto Zone store with a hammer.
@VoteGriffin posted on Twitter, “Started recording these white guys who was completely out of place planning to ‘86 this building’ it seemed like an organized burning. They tried to fight. We ran them away. After tonight I am convinced that the fires are largely organized arson.”
Even AG Barr admitted, "Unfortunately, with the rioting that is occurring in many of our cities around the country, the voices of peaceful protest are being hijacked by violent radical elements. Groups of outside radicals and agitators are exploiting the situation to pursue their own separate and violent agenda.”
Trump Stokes Racism
Trump seemed eager to capitalize on the multiple Accelerationists attacks. He worked quickly to lay blame on ANTIFA and the “Radical Left.”
Trump Tweeted, “It’s ANTIFA and the Radical Left. Don’t lay the blame on others!”
Fun Fact: On October 22, 2018 Trump declared at his rally, "You know, they have a word – it’s sort of became old-fashioned – it’s called a nationalist. And I say, really, we’re not supposed to use that word. You know what I am? I’m a nationalist, okay? I’m a nationalist. Nationalist. Nothing wrong. Use that word. Use that word."
In response to Trump, many leaders on Twitter spoke up.
@GeorgeTakei Tweeted, “Let's be clear. By calling for a ‘MAGA night at the White House’ tonight, Trump is hoping to foment violence to justify an extension of his own powers. He thrives on dividing us, pitting people against each other. We should expect more of this soon.”
@BigPixieKiss of #Dems4USA shares, “At such a critical time in our lives, we must never be diverted from the ultimate goal of equality for all. Do not fall prey to the distraction and deflection. Do not let the disruptive forces become your voice. Stand your ground and maintain the focus on your goals.”
@Vegix of #BeTheChange4USA says, “The growing protests against the violent and unwarranted deaths of George Floyd, Breonna Taylor and others are being infiltrated by agent provocateurs that are tied to white nationalists, Trump and even in some cases, potentially undercover police. These infiltrators are attempting to sow the seeds of chaos to induce looting, riots and violence and simultaneously running sophisticated disinformation campaigns to blame us. These are the same tactics that fascist regimes utilize to attempt to stifle dissent and control as well as dismantle opposition. It's more important now than ever before to speak out and call attention to what's happening.”
@JoeBiden Tweeted, “We are a country with an open wound. None of us can turn away. None of us can be silent. None of us any longer can hear those words — ‘I can’t breathe’ — and do nothing. We must commit, as a nation, to pursue justice with every ounce of our being.”
