• Trump defends young man arrested for killing two protesters in Kenosha riots

  • Racial tension: Wisconsin authorities ask Trump not to visit Kenosha

Donald Trump has already arrived in the city of Kenosha, in Wisconsin, where last week two people were killed in the riots that broke out when police fired seven point-blank shots at an African American.

Although the mayor of the city,

John Antaramian

, and the governor of the state,

Tony Evers

- both Democrats - asked him not to be due to the delicate security situation in the city, after a week of demonstrations, looting and violent acts, Trump has decided to go.

And not exactly to calm things down.

The president has referred to the protesters as "looters", "bad people" and "domestic terrorists".

"I think a lot of people are disgusted by what is happening in these cities that are controlled by the Democrats

," Trump said before leaving Andrews Air Force Base, outside Washington.

Almost all cities in the United States are Democrats, and in fact in 2016 Trump did not win in a single urban nucleus of more than 250,000 inhabitants.

Everything seems to indicate that in 2020 this situation is going to be repeated, and the president is exacerbating tensions between rural and urban areas, in order to encourage his base to vote.

Racial tensions in cities, and looting and violence carried out during protests against police brutality provide arguments for the president's policy.

But, in keeping with his customary positions, Trump has done nothing to calm the waters and is trying to exploit the crisis for electoral purposes.

At Andrews, he claimed that "the press, the media, is what is encouraging this," he said, referring to the riots and protests.

"The press is encouraging this more than Biden, because Biden doesn't know he's alive," he

said, referring to Trump's election strategy that Biden is too old - three years his senior - to run the country.

He also called Antaramian "fool".

In the past 24 hours, the president has launched all kinds of messages regarding Kenosha, including a series of 89 tweets in two and a quarter hours Sunday in which he

echoed the idea of ​​advocates of the QAnon conspiracy theory

that Trump fights. alone against a network of pedophiles that controls the world and that the number of deaths caused by Covid-19 is 95% lower than that computed by different public and private organizations.

Trump also referred

to the protesters as "your people"

in an interview with a CNN reporter

.

Finally, on Sunday night, the president spoke, in an interview with the Fox News television network, of

a mysterious "plane" carrying protesters across the country

.

Trump refused to give more information about the case, claiming that it is under investigation, although it all appears to be one more conspiracy theory without any evidence to support it.

In that same interview, Trump compared the seven shots Kenosha police hit African American

Jacob Blake

with "a bad decision," akin to missing a golf ball "three feet from the hole."
