The 574 riots were mostly peaceful? Why should everyone “beware” if they are going to remain peaceful? Trump said “peacefully and patriotically march to the capital” and then condoned the violence. Why the double standard?

Direct Quotes:

Though largely peaceful, some of this summer's protests have at times turned violent.

"That's right," Harris replied. "But they're not gonna stop. They're not gonna stop, and this is a movement, I'm telling you."

"They're not gonna stop, and everyone beware, because they're not gonna stop," she added. "They're not gonna stop before Election Day in November, and they're not gonna stop after Election Day."

"Everyone should take note of that, on both levels, that they're not going to let up — and they should not. And we should not," she concluded.

Our rating: Partly false

Based on our research, the claim that Kamala Harris said riots will not and should not stop is PARTLY FALSE. It's true that Harris told Stephen Colbert that she believes protests against racism are "not gonna stop," and said that she supports protesters. But that exchange does not discuss riots, and she has condemned the acts of violence and looting that turned some protests into riots.

I hope none of it has ever leaked in her bag.

Joe Biden should take the same test.
