Shrug. It's good that the Dems are opening that door no matter who it is that gets caught in it, right?

Good succinct response. January 6th was a well-organized coup attempt whipped up by a lying, cheating sore loser, spearheaded by the proud boys, and abetted by "patriots" that don't understand the difference between their feelings and actual facts.

By the way, #45 gave us a preview way back in early 2016 when, with absolutely no evidence, he accused Ted Cruz of cheating in the Iowa caucuses and called for another vote or a nullification of Cruz's win.

“Ted Cruz didn’t win Iowa, he stole it,”

Why would you condemn people without due process??? Thats vigilante justice. Not the type of country I want to live in. I believe... innocent, till proven guilty, IN A COURT OF LAW.

Sorry, but we don’t live in the 1800s, wild, wild west anymore.

Done in the attempts to unseat a duly elected president.

Maybe it's good that they are working so hard to find something, anything, to go after Trump over. Whether they "get him" or not, they're definitely opening the door to go after "mob leader" Obama too. Unintended consequences.

Okay, so, no Obama crime thread?

Thanks for the cool stories and for the reminder to stay on topic.

Questioning the elections has never been done in the American history especially by Democrats . You just arrived on a boat or just being disingenuous. Trump plays the same game Democrats played on him and people are shocked.


Democrats are already making the bed on fraud when they lose the midterms. The President and the party are calling voting I.D. laws Jim Crow on steroids and when Democrats like Stacey Abrams loses again will blame racist Republicans and the anti-voting laws. They will question every election they lose.

"Well-organized"? "Coup"?

Yes, a small rag-tag group, mainly without weapons, or weapons that were a match to guns, had plans to enter the Capitol building. But didn't have much in the way of plans after that. Though I heard they were planning a short-term sit-in, with munchies and beverages. That's not well-organized or an attempted coup.

And yet, it caused Cruz to apologize to Carson for his campaign lying about Carson dropping out of the race.

not when Republicans will win big in a red wave 5 months and they can easily tie down Garland and the DOJ with hearings after hearings. The last thing Garland wants is answering questions under oath. Look how Mueller turned out when he went under oath.

.

I never heard a coup to overthrow a government without weapons especially a nuclear super power. These are the idiots running the country and people ask why is it in the toilet.
