It has been and always will be about context.
Let's compare some statements. During the Baltimore riots-
Hey, wait, why were they rioting in Baltimore all those years ago? Huh. Seems to me there was something about a black man dying in police custody... huh.
Anyway. Statements.
Obama leads with acknowledging the right to peacefully protest. Then separates the people who are looting out as criminals and thugs, and those people are undermining the legitimate grievances of the protestors. He goes on to say that the system is unjust and needs to be reformed.
Trump leads with thugs are dishonoring the memory. ( he doesn't acknowledge the why behind the death and the protests). he immediately jumps threatening use of the military and that "he will take control".
It is all about how the word is used and the context it is being used in.
