From the link. (Photo in the Link of Congressman barricading Chamber doors)
-
A photo emerged of a GOP lawmaker who last week downplayed the Capitol siege and compared the rioters to tourists barricading the House doors with furniture on January 6.
- A GOP lawmaker who has said there was no insurrection was seen barricading the House on January 6.
Rep. Andrew Clyde said last week that the riot resembled a
"normal tourist visit."
- But he had been photographed pushing furniture against the chamber's doors.
Rep. Andrew Clyde said during a House oversight committee hearing on Wednesday that it was a "bald-faced lie" to call the riot an insurrection. He said the riot, in which hundreds of Trump supporters breached the Capitol, resembled a "normal tourist visit."
After Clyde's comments, a photographer shared a photo he had taken of Clyde using furniture to barricade the House against rioters trying to force their way in to disrupt the certification of President Joe Biden's election victory.
Though this could be seen as a hoopala thread as soooo many are from the Right .... still this Congressman made it again CURRENT with his new terms and words to deflate it being called a Insurrection.
It surely will be claimed.... the Congressman thought it was Antifa or BLM and not Trump supporters...... that will be the RHETORIC I AM SURE.... It clearly can be said he did not know EXACTLY WHOM these people were. Still it reasons the Congressman knew of TRUMP SUPPORTERS PROTESTING OUTSIDE AND SPOKEN TO BY TRUMP HIMSELF and the Implications of >>> TRUMP WANTING THE PENCE FORMALITY OF RATIFYING THE ELECTORAL VOTES HALTED in the CAPITOL. <<<
If calling it a INSURRECTION is OVERSTATING AND EXAGGERATING??? Still this CONGRESSMAN'S NEW WORDS of IT BEING JUST AS A -- "NORMAL TOURIST VISIT" in itself is NONESENSE.....
So this is the POINT that How one presents your truth can show HYPOCRI?CY and EXTREMISM in both camps if one chooses and over a year later it is USED for some DEFENSE of those who entered the Capitol on Jan 6th uninvited.....
*** Why should this Congressman relate Jan 6th to - " A Normal Tourist Visit"?? Does that make sense to you'all?? Did he REALLY THINK when he saw them with all the TRUMP signs and caps entering then the Chamber? Think they were still Antifa etc? Did VP PENCE?
