Nixon went full-on "law and order" not only about African Americans but also about the hippy proto-Bernie Bros in Chicago.
Ailes knew the secret "law and order" was a code for race and for culture anxiety in 1968. The language, the "Silent Majority" crap, the aggrieved whining is 1968 all over again.
Tweety wants the coverage of burning buildings. Tweety wants the cops v protesters.
By later today, you'll see posts about law and order backing a lawless and orderless Administration led by a criminal. Bannon, Miller, and the rest of the Trump fluffers ADORE this culture war.
They're ALREADY modeling how the rioting plays for campaign messaging, I promise you.
Also, 103,000 Americans are dead.

Now with 133,000 Americans dead, Tweety stays on message desperately trying to change the narrative to bad black men, riots in the streets and saving the Confederacy.
He starts the week by going after NASCAR’s only top black driver and criticizing the racing association’s decision to ban Confederate flags in order to generate more fodder for his ever declining base.
Donald J. Trump
@realDonaldTrump
Has @BubbaWallace apologized to all of those great NASCAR drivers & officials who came to his aid, stood by his side, & were willing to sacrifice everything for him, only to find out that the whole thing was just another HOAX? That & Flag decision has caused lowest ratings EVER!

What do the Vietnam War and the War on the Corona Virus both have in common?
Donald Trump ran away from fighting in both....
