A mayor in one of those cities has zero impact on my life. A shitbag wanna be dictator prez has a whole lot to do with my life.

My take is something like that. I think what happens in Chicago or Portland or Seattle MAY have an impact on my life, e.g., if Trump uses civil unrest there to build up a force of unidentifiable federal officers to deploy wherever he claims a threat to federal property.

But that is the case because abuse of power at the federal level has much greater consequence, and should be a priority issue for every voting citizen.

Part of the problem today is that so few see that abuse of power as a problem. Whether Trump can use Chicago, Portland and Seattle to successfully divert attention away from his abuses will be one of the keys to his successful re-election, followed by further abuse with ever weaker checks.
