MadeAliyah,
“The ‘trial run’ was done by BLM and Antifa.”
Republicans don’t get their own reality created by the web of lies that they are constantly reading and listening to.
“The next time the police will be prepared and will succeed in defending the Capital.”
The president has lot of power over security in DC and if he is in favor of an insurrection, there will not be more security. In fact, the weak security this time was due to the president’s administration ordering the capitol police to not be properly prepared and not to engage the rioters. The capitol police revealed the letter that he received from the administration.
“Please tell us more.”
I assume that you know exactly what I am referring to.
TVAP-
There were thousands of people who were very prepared. Military gear, weapons , advanced scouting and coordination.
If you actually listen to his speech then you will realize that the words “peaceful protest” are meaningless.
I will admit that if I believed in what Trump said at the rally that the election was stolen, that he won by a landslide and the Dem’s are destroying democracy and stealing the next 4 years, I would have been part of the riot and not left the capitol building without a few politicians in handcuffs. ( or worse.)
Republicans Defenses of Trump that are worthless.
1) No impeachment trial after leaving office.
Constitutionally and historically untrue
2) Whataboutism.
That is a five year old’s defense
3) He said the word peaceful.
It is all about the environment that he created by his words and actions.
4) He never expected this to happen.
He is expected to know better. There was intel of very bad people joining the capitol rally.
5) He stopped it in real time after the rioters breached the capitol.
He did not.
23 years ago Republicans believed that a president committing perjury was a reason to remove him from office. How far they have fallen.
If next time a democrat president does exactly what trump did , would you still be opposed to removal from office?
