Does it bother anyone else that Trump tried to overthrow the government on January 6, 2021 and got away with it?

I remember where I was that day...I was driving 15 miles north of D.C. and my cousin texted me that Trump supporters invaded the Capitol. The darkness was palpable.

I watch tons of cable news and every time I see that prick on TV, I am reminded of how he incited a mob to ransack the Capitol and got away with it.

It boggles my mind.

Most definitely. I was home, still recovering from the rona. At that time I was working half days so missed what the POS and others said in the morning but watched the insurrection attempt happen live.

I thought that he would be exiled like other banana Republic former leaders. There's no way he's recovering from this shid. Crazy where we are right now because we are too proud as a nation, to do what was right.

It's the one thing, far more than any other, that I'll never understand how he got away with and how anyone could ever vote for him after it. When I was in Rome last year, that was the number one question that people from other countries asked me about. "What do you think about January 6th?" And they asked it in a wary way, like I was being judged on how I answered it. It was one of the darkest, most shameful episodes in our history.

Yep.

No other President comes close.

Here is how Trump got away with it. McConnell figured he'd triangulate his way through it by signaling for Republicans to protect Trump, and he'd just quietly go away like every other ex president. Then he could keep the MAGAt voters for 2022 and 2024. Somehow in 4 years of being debased and abused by Trump he didn't learn that Trump was not going to accept quietly going away, and not being the center of attention, or having all of that power and the ability to make money off of being president.

Yep, if you remember, he said the courts should handle it but that didn't work either.

Yeah, seeing how the Trump-verse have downplayed and revised away what really happened that day has been an eye-opening experience. My own brother has argued it was a bunch of tourists and ladies with strollers... that level of disingenuousness is other-worldly. It's quite a time in one's life when you come to realize so many tens of millions of Americans are either morally bankrupt or completely dumb AF.

You should stop acting like Celine Dion drama, & keep your word on your bet. Show some character.

If you made a half-*** bet with me that you didn't remember and you politely asked me to remind you about it and I called you a cock sucker in response, what would you do?
If you had self respect?
Would you like me to bring that thread to this thread and make you look like an idiot AGAIN?
I doubt you do, bet welcher

Obviously the public at large doesn't give a flying fu ck about j6 (given the landslide beat down trump gave to kamala. 100% of swing states and plurality of votes doesn't lie)

Let's review a few things about j6 though:

1. Chris Wray lied to congress and the American people about FBI involvement and we know he had MANY plain clothes agents and provocateurs present to drive the event (see ray epps)

2. Trump said to peacefully protest. He said it in his speech (which was ongoing when federal assets began entering the capitol) and repeated it online. The far leftists at twitter 1.0 deleted his posts then banned him from the platform.

3. The capitil police literally opened the front doors for people to enter the building (they were welcomed in and even shown where to go.

4. The prosecutions for most of the people there were way over the top. People who caused zero damage and in some cases didn't even go to the capitol were given ridiculous sentencing including solitary confinement.

5. Nancy Pelosi turned down trump national guard requests and is on video pointing out that she was personally responsible for what happened.

6. Everything the left said politically at that time was a lie. Russian collusion was totally fabricated (and an actual seditious conspiracy), the fine people hoax was entirely funded and planned by the southern poverty law center, everything related to covid was nonsense (see fauci lied thread), and trump never once told people to storm the capitol. He said to peacefully and patriotically make their voices heard and to listen to law enforcement. Again, social media deleted those comments and banned him from Twitter, fb, etc and then even had Amazon web services deplatform parler so they could try and control the narrative completely. Elon buying twitter ruined all of the far left's fascist plans.

7. It's laughable watching the left rage over pardons when their VP candidate for the last election just pardoned a convicted child rapist to try and help him avoid being deported (because *gasp* he was also an illegal alien). You guys have zerp standards to stand on.

How many covid boosters are you up to now, OP?

This sopping wet puzzy is very upset 🤣
In his "defense" you gotta understand that he hasn't done a single squat or push up in years, and sits in a chair all day watching the view and wailing with other far leftists on the internet about Trump being the GOAT. He has low T even by lob standards.

Cults never admit when they are wrong. See how the same people refuse to acknowledge fauci and their behavior/lies during the pandemic? See how they support tampon Tim pardoning an illegal alien pedophile or biden's team selling auto pen pardons to the highest bidders?

Just remember, it's always (D)ifferent when they do it.
