I think part of the change is that some of the democrats are starting to realize that the bulk of these idiots are true believers. I think the democrats themselves were initially seeing this whole thing as pretending to believe the cops are racist to give an excuse to riot (with the belief that the riots would hurt Trump), and they falsely assumed that their voter base was on the same page, and now they are starting to realize that the vast majority of the rioters actually believe the 'cops are racist' nonsense.I think blue city leaders are starting to think about these events with more clarity.
Before: "Haw haw, this makes Trump look bad and gets our guy as president. Go, democratic youth, go."
Now: "Holy shit, if this continues we all are just left on a pile of burning rubble. These people are insane and will do nothing but bring ruin. Even if Trump left today they would burn everything down."
The shift in police actions is getting more extreme. If these protests keep up and continued flight out of the cities occurs, eventually someone is going to break and demand the feds come in with full authority.
