Elon Musk has joined calls for President Trump to pardon ex-Minneapolis police officer Derek Chauvin, who was convicted of murdering George Floyd in 2020. A Trump pardon would end Chauvin’s 20-year sentence on federal convictions for violating Floyd’s civil rights, but Trump does not have the power to commute Chauvin’s 22.5-year sentence on state murder charges.
Not saying you’re wrong just want to understand youre thinking why would they want riots? Isnt that the only real threat to them?
Triggering division as an excuse for suppression is Dictator 101.
Your political opponents are lawless? That means you can legally crack down on them.
It has the side benefit of stirring the shit/divisions which is what keeps Trump in place.

Enact martial law, take over all legislation, be a dictator. Job done.
That’s why he’s firing everyone at the top of the military who isn’t a white male.
trump has been looking to apply the insurrection act since his first term. with the various sycophants in congress and the executive, there has never been a more opportune time (other than tomorrow, of course).
as to why… well, trump has gotten even more messianic since his first term. suppression of dissent would be a powerplay that may yield significant dividends, showing loyalists the need to stay in the camp and detractors what happens when you resist.
