The president said Sunday he would declare the far left political movement a terrorist organization, which he cannot do.
Protests — especially those of the scale seen in the United States in recent days — are complicated affairs, often drawing participants with a range of political ideologies and motivations, including some with bad intentions. But some observers said they see in Trump’s targeting of antifa an attempt to shift focus away from what sparked the demonstrations: outrage over killings of black people by police.
“If antifa on its own could orchestrate a national campaign of burning down police stations and burning down malls, they would have done it years ago,” Bray said. “They agree with these kinds of actions. But the number of people involved is so small.”T.V. Reed, a Washington State University professor who studies protests and social movements, said conservative politicians have long “exaggerated the importance” of interlopers infiltrating protests, and they “are clearly doing it again.
“But I’ve been talking with protesters and trying to get a sense of who some of these folks are, and I’ve heard mixed things,” Ellison said.
