I think you’re confused. Democrats support riots when their people do it, setting up bail funds, defending violent riots in interviews, calling for more protests/riots. Republicans condemn riots by Dems and continue to condemn riots by their own side. You’ve see Dems support violence by their side all summer, so it may be a shock when Republicans don’t engage in the same level of hypocrisy.

It’s very basic, riots=bad. But what if your supporters riot? Now brace yourself, this is a new concept, riots=bad. But, but what if we are burning down buildings and beating old people in the street all in the name of George Floyd? Again, this may be a shocker, riots=bad.

I see where your confusion comes in and its that you’ve been taught all this year that when it’s your people doing it, riots=good. Maybe now you can understand why Republicans don’t support riots even when it’s their side doing it. It’s a basic belief that rioting is bad.

Conspiracy quacks are dangerous. Especially the ones who break the law. I saw it all summer. It's hard to wrap your head around how they think. I listened to that guy and his fervent belief in bizarre theories sounds oddly familiar...

I mean it's gotten so bad that a bunch of woke white people used BLM to their advantage, are trying to divide the country and even want to start a race war. Charlie Manson tried that too but he got locked up.

This time they planned it better and hijacked the media. They invented something called "Critical Race Theory". These are nonsensical notions that the entire US is somehow inherently racist even though we recently voted in a Black President - TWICE. (Man, people can be brainwashed to believe the craziest things )

They rewrote US history with something called the 1619 Project and they want to cancel 4th of July and replace it with a new holiday called Juneteenth. You are not allowed to question any of this "New World Order" or you will be labeled a racist. Even if you're Black.

They have lots of other crazy ideas and know there will be backlash so they are trying to defund the police. They want to replace them with people like themselves. Social workers and other liberal arts majors.

They have put people who think like them in all areas of gov't, media and tech. They want a revolution and are trying to overthrow the gov't by infiltrating it. They won't be happy until everyone thinks like them. They even invented something called "Cancel Culture" to squelch all dissent. You could even lose your job for questioning anything they say or do.

It's all gotten so bizarre that the #1 book in sales is 1984.

I agree conspiracy nutters need reigned in before they destroy what's left of the country. I hope it's not too late to deprogram them and the Qanon followers.

The word “shaman” says it all.

He is the key to the Democratic impeachment charade. And makes about as much sense.

(Did a poster actually suggest he 'might' have mental issues?)
Minimizing a violent assault on the Democratic process makes you part of a conspiracy to subvert the U.S. government.

You seem unaware that much of the GOP is "pretending" along with Nancy. You are the fringe element here. Aligning yourself with traitors, QAnon believers, white supremacists and a coup against the American government.

A lot of people are going to jail over this. A lot more may never be allowed on a plane or Amtrack. Many will be driven to financial ruin via legal fees and job losses. You should stand up for what you believe in and attend the planned riots of Jan 20. Post your selfies online like the other geniuses.

If Trump were in any way aware of the optics of this, or the damage to his own reputation and legacy, he’d stay away from anything to do with the legal proceedings having to do with the Capitol terrorists.


As it is, 75% chance the pardon will happen.

Trump has already condemned the violence at the capital, and further stated that those involved should be prosecuted. If this guy is responsible, why would Trump pardon him?

This thread seems to be in line with all the other hate-Trump conspiracy crap. The haters make assumptions of the crazy stuff they think Trump is capable of, and then assume their imagined fantasies are true, and then freak out over them.

amazing.... from the horse's mouth....

Arizona man in furry horned hat during Capitol riot wants pardon from President Trump

"So when my client asks for a pardon, to him this is deadly serious,"....

Chansley, also known as the QAnon Shaman," is facing six federal criminal charges, including civil disorder and entering a restricted building.

Watkins said he personally isn't holding his breath when it comes to a pardon for his client. However, he blames President Trump for the protest and subsequent riot at the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6...."
