That the Democrats lose House seats, do not win the Senate and barely manage to drag their demented presidential candidate towards a stalemate tells a lot about their lack of sane policies. A donor party completely disinterested in what the people really want - medicare for all, no fracking etc. - will have little chance to survive a future onslaught of conservatives with a more competent figure head than Donald Trump. ...should Trump lose this election, Trumpism will only grow and make the U.S. ungovernable.

That is a consideration. There is also a consideration of "the police were under active attack with explosive and other weapons". If you are fool enough to surround and attack 10, 20, 30 armed men, you don't get to cry "foul" when they open fire on you.
