So Biden will now "condemn" the violence?

After weeks of providing full scale support for BLM/Antifa riots, Biden will supposedly condemn the rioting in an upcoming speech.

One has to ask if this is too little too late
or simply lesser of two losing strategies? 

On one hand, those people who are sick and tired of all of the rioting and sick and tired of all of the politicians who have been openly in support of said rioting are likely going to see through the Biden rhetoric on this. The reality is this sudden 180 is little more than a blatant political reaction to the turning of the polls. One has to wonder if Biden really has an actual position on this issue or if he just has a finger in the wind on this.

More to the point, the easiest way for a politician to lose an election, is to attempt to be come a "light" version of what the other side is offering. If you want "law and order" then you already have Trump. Nobody is going to vote for the Biden "Trump light" version of providing law and order if law and order is their issue.

Meanwhile, the so called Democratic leader right now is about to undermine many of those marginal minority voters who are not all that excited about Biden to begin with. How will they feel about Biden (and Democrats in general) if their leader decides to abandon their cause... which right now involves 80% rioting and 20% peaceful protests. While you can pay lip service and pretend (like CNN) that most Democrats just want "mostly peaceful protests" - a quick look at social media will tell you that the young rank and file liberal believes that the violence is a necessarily step. In fact, Democrats across the board will eventually admit (when pushed on the issue) that violence is often times necessary to move forward a cause. They believe that peaceful protests will be ignored and eventually shunned (much like taking a knee during the national anthem at sporting events came and went a few years back).

The reality here is that things went too far and you cannot just take it back. Democratic Politicians here in Minnesota appeased the Minneapolis rioters, allowing over a half billion in local damage. Democratic politicians in Seattle appeased failed experiment of CHOP, and likely permanently ruined what was "the" trendy down town up scale retail district in Seattle. Democrats have appeased protesters in Portland, in New York, in Chicago, and now in Kenosha. It's going to be difficult to simply pretend that none of that happened or otherwise "condemn" things now without directly or tacitly admitting that this appeasement was wrong. There are a lot of Democratic politicians at every level as well as liberal voters who will not like their leader bending a knee to the law and order faction of our country.

What does Biden hope to accomplish? Does he expect that he will suddenly provide cover for the state and local Democrats to push back against the rioters? Does he somehow expect that these BLM and Antifa terrorists will listen to an nearly 80 year old man with a history of racism and put an end to things? Doubtful. 

I think it just will reinforce the concept for many of these radicals that they have nobody really in their corner on a political front, and voting is not a useful tool for fixing what they believe is wrong. Either way, they will get a white guy in his 70's who doesn't believe in what they are doing.  

Add that to the millions of others who will see Biden as unprincipled for not sticking with a stance, and it's not hard to see why this is a lose/lose situation for Dementia Joe.
