Sure they will, given the entire thing is a "keep Trump away from 2024" campaign ad.

Although, by "back it up" I don't for a second think there will be anything remotely resembling proof, logical argument, etc...just more slogans, fallacies, pontificating, etc. This is political theater after all, not a court of law. They aren't trying to prove guilt to jury, but are trying to sway hearts and minds in the court of public opinion.

Thus, I'd imagine a ton more anti-Trump rhetoric is headed your way.

What the Democrats did on Judge Kavanaugh wasn't divisive? it was plain criminal. Saying the election was rigged and questioned the election and an administration for years lying everyday with the media was done to Trump before he took the oath. Wasn't that dividing the country.


Defending and supporting the BLM violent protests during an election year to change the outcome wasn't dividing the country? but one riot is being punish over the top and the bigger riot is being lied to us about and if somebody questions it they get punish. That isn't dividing the country.


You don't think Democrats are dividing the country with this? nothing to see here, right?

I just laugh how people here with their double standards and fake outrage. They say Trump is too divisive but Democrats aren't? They started all this with Trump before he even took the oath and when Trump returns the favor and plays their game, they doubled down and divide further the country with this cr@p.


It's not enough to divide the country with 2 impeachments. Banned him from social media and still are investigating him for politics out of power, they have to do this 1 sided Kangaroo hearing on prime time for days but that isn't dividing the country.


These are the people in power while the economy is burning down.

Default Rachel Maddow Tells The Truth: The Trump Rally Did Not Cause January 6th Capitol Breach!!!

Their ratings must be so in the tank for her to actually admit this.


Of course most of us on the Right have been pointing this out forever to a wall of derision and jeers from our Left Wing counterparts.


Well, here it is - and don't pinch yourselves, you're not dreaming!

Better late than never Rachel.


We all know Trump said "Peacefully protest and make your voices heard". We all know the "capitol breach" (where Police were frequently holding doors open and ushering people inside) began before Trump even finished his speech.


And now the Left's very own iconic saviour is admitting the exact same thing.


Your move, Lefties.

Is resisting arrest in any protest against the government an insurrection and obstruction? Yes or No.


Since they didn't have NO guns or killed police officers or burn down the building this should be misdemeanor not a national crisis.


Let's apply the same to the BLM protests and at least you can regain credibility back. It looks like political punishment by the people in power and the law is not being applied equally here.
Location - location. Intent and protests are allowed if non violent. You can complain about others riots. I’m not for any riot at all, but you cannot diminish what occurred on Jan 6 and the reason it happened or who was in agreement to stop the congress from doing its duty that day. Maybe if they showed up a week before - might have had a diff purpose.

Trump used the word '' war '' several times about doing this. In the book of Federal Crime Codes. That word is tied to treason, when used against the the US government. This has been picked up by several lawyers.
