The rioters won

[edhopper]

Their leader is now President. Those in Congress who supported them, now run Congress. Most of those convicted will get pardoned.
I am truly sad this day. I can't see America as anything but a failed Democracy.

1. A criminal, rapist, traitor is going to be a US president. A total disgrace.

2. We all need

to stay engaged and not tune out, at this most crucial time. I do believe there will be infighting with Magat faction and Oligarchs. It's just a matter of time. Too many egos bunting heads will happen.

3. Now, now,

We must give Garland's "pyramid Strategy" time to work.

Any day now people will start flipping on Trump's inner circle.

There should be an EmptyWheel article to back this up.

6. They already have flipped. They have been ignored.

7. I knew the fix was in during Trump's second impeachment...

When the prosecutors were about to present the evidence and there was a commercial break.

When the scene returned to the floor, tight lipped and pale, they were rolling up the carpet and wiping the shit off the walls.

Nary a word has been spoken since.

I will never forget that.

I don’t know exactly what transpired, but I can speculate “we don’t want to cause a panic” was uttered. A phrase that killed democracy.

4. The coup continued unabated. n/t

5. We were told the patriots of the right

would bleed red white and blue. We were told they loved their country and those that serve their country. We were told that they believed in Christian values. We were told the right would never support activist judges who would twist the law for the sake of party. We were told they would support a thousand points of light with compassionate conservative values

It is all a lie.

They love money and party over country. Those that serve are losers. Charitable giving is for suckers.
Their values are selfishness and mockery and cruelty. And as if to place an exclamation mark on their true colors, their orange clay footed god mocks the tradition of flags at a half staff for the best human to serve as President.

Day Of National Disgrace

Has anyone ever asked the GQP traitors in Congress why they didn't join the "tourists" in their J6 "lovefest" instead of hiding out behind the police?
