I like you. I don't think you're a mindless sheep.

By the same token, it's OK to call out wrong when you see it. Sure the MAGA followers will call you a "leftie" or whatever but as a patriot the nation takes precedence over a single person. This mess started yesterday when the followers were told to march tot he Capitol and they did. This is why they are sheep.

They broke into the building that MY TAX DOLLARS will have to replace items and pay for enhanced security simply because their guy lost the election and because the Vice President swore allegiance to the U.S. Constitution and not the President.

VP Pence effectively flipping them the finger and resuming the session was the best thing to come out of yesterday. Not that the rioters got this message but no matter how loyal you are to the MAGA movement, loyalty to the Constitution is more important.

This was not Trump’s fault....it was the fault of leftists treating us like sub-humans not even worthy of speech.

I unfortunately must face the fact that I cannot express my opinion about raising corporate taxes, forgiving student loans, giving free college, tearing down the wall designed to slow the flow of illegal aliens, etc., without being called amoral scum, a racist, a cold-hearted *itch, or just plain mocked, tainted, or told to shut up. The only people permitted to speak freely, without fear of retribution, are liberals.
the news this morning was reading the definition of terrorism this morning, to enrage the masses. curious that they didnt apply it to the firey summer. the left burns down the country, and spreads covid and its social justice. the right dares protest and its terrorism. disgusting.

If they tell a lie long enough the weak minded start to believe it. There is overwhelming evidence of election fraud -- and anyone who denies it and supports the coverup of the Dems stealing the election deserves to be held responsible. Silencing people who understand the truth and see that this is a globalist / deep state power grab is a sure way to incite violence. These calls for Trumps ouster are comical given all the Dems have done and supported over the last 4 years. If people think things are going to just settle down they are nuts.

So much for the MAGA morons saying "back the blue" and "we believe in law and order". If anything, yesterday showed MAGA is a bunch of hypocrites loyal to Trump, not the country.

Fake patriots. Fake conservatives. Fake police supporters.
The whole group is pathetic and fake. What is in the USA water? Dumb down culture.
