My first impression was that the ones leading the charge that made it on camera inside the Capitol Building looked to be homeless, and resembled "tree-spikers" of the green movement, who are mostly homeless. Has any of the caring left wing media looked into the housing status of those arrested? Why not?

He'll be looking better in prison stripes. Maybe they'll match his helmet.

You have, indeed, put the cards on the table.

He fanned the flames. He told the crowd "You don't take back the country with weakness." Angry people took that statement to heart. They legit thought it was 1776.

What's worse is afterwards he tweeted "These are the things and events that happen.." Basically saying, "5 people dead? A mess at the Capitol? You get what you deserve." How can you people defend that? https://www.thetrumparchive.com/

Trump ordered tear gas on protesters so he could stand in front of a church and hold up a bible.

Now you have Trump supporters illegally on Capitol grounds and there's no tear gas.

Tells me all I need to know. You know if it was BLM or Antifa the cops would be cracking heads. But it's the MAGA crowd so they get the kid gloves treatment.
oh, I see, you mean like the kid glove treatment the leftist media and Democrat Politicians have given the BLM and Antifa violent Protestors.

GMS.

I voted for him and I Knew he lost on election night. I did not vote for him in 2016, but in 2020 I voted for him because of the riots. I am mad that these loons are driving out my voice. I can't stand Trump and he need to be charged with treason he is dictator. He paints all people that voted for him with a broad brush I am not Q and I have to deal with a sister that believes his lies. I want him in prison! He incited these monsters and now the rest of us conservatives' like me don't know what to do. I feel the same way Peggy Noonan stated in her quote below quoted from WSJ

Peggy Noonan "Find them, drag them out of their basements, and bring them to justice. Use all resources, whatever it takes, with focus and speed. We have pictures of half of them; they like to pose. They larked about taking selfies and smiling unashamed smiles as one strolled out with a House podium. They were so arrogant they were quoted by name in news reports. It is our good luck they are idiots. Capitalize on that luck.

The president should be removed for reasons of justice—he urged a crowd to march on Congress, and, when it turned violent, had to be dragged into telling them, equivocally, to go home—and prudence. Mitt Romney had it exactly right: “What happened here . . . was an insurrection, incited by the president of the United States.” As for prudence, Mr. Trump is a sick, bad man and therefore, as president, a dangerous one. He has grown casually bloody-minded, nattering on about force and denouncing even his own vice president as a coward for not supporting unconstitutional measures. No one seems to be certain how Mr. Trump spends his days. He doesn’t bother to do his job. The White House is in meltdown. The only thing that captures his interest is the fact that he lost, which fills him with thoughts of vengeance."

For all the people saying that he should stay in office for the sake of the country F off! People like you need to a therapist. Jim Jones ring a bell!

This country governs form the middle hard left and Maga rioters and all types of radicals need to be public ally shunned on both sides enough is enough this is the only way forward to protect Freedom and not try to have the Government fix it for us! Both parties have awakened us sane people we are tired leave us alone with toxic rhetoric!!!! From our leaders on the DNC side this summer to Trump on Wednesday! All these people need to be voted out in the future. Maybe split ticket voting is the answer and force the DNC and the RNC to compromise.

We all need to understand completely what Trump is about. Transparency is very important. Any insight in to the key figure who contributed to this violence against the US government needs to come to light.

His faithful followers must understand what they put their life and livelihood in danger for.

He was ashamed of the costumed characters and felt they were low class. This is well documented.
He never had any intention of walking with his followers to the Senate. In fact he never walks anywhere (this is well known) and he never ever ever does his own errands. And hasn't for years.
The fantasies about Trump's enemies are not real. Qanon stories are not real
Military and law enforcement will not protect people who are trying to overthrow the government. They are not on your side. Just because you are doing what Trump thinks you should do doesn't mean you will be allowed to. He will not support you when you get arrested or harmed. This is a great surprise to many.
IMO, Trump has always been allowed to do whatever he wants and is never around to pick up the pieces when it fall to sht. It has been repeated hundreds of times in both his personal and business life.

I am sorry if these truths are inflammatory but you all need to know the unvarnished truth. This can not be repeated. It need to be studied and absorbed.
