Let's just be clear: Donald Trump is not going to Kenosha to calm the city or to comfort the family of Jacob Blake, or the families of Anthony Huber and Joseph Rosenbaum, the two young men shot to death by one of Trump's supporters. He's going to Kenosha to whip up more violence.
Violence and mayhem, perpetrated by people who support HIM, unleashed at night and let's just be clear: by white nationalist mobs, often against other young white people (both Rosenbaum and Huber were white), in cities with few Black people, IS HIS RE-ELECTION STRATEGY. Period.
The "riots" are not Black Lives Matter marches gone wrong. Armed white nationalists are mobbing these cities to take advantage of protests and scare fellow white people into quietly siding with them. It's an old, tried and true strategy: using fear & anti-blackness for politics.
Also it's a nifty way to get us to stop talking about the fact that by Election Day, 200,000 Americans will likely be dead from the coronavirus because of Trump's incompetence; the Postal Service could be all-but broken, and the economy destroyed. http://www.healthdata.org/news-release/new-ihme-forecasts-show-more-200000-us-deaths-november-1
