Two days before the electoral college is set to make President-elect Joe Biden’s return to the White House official, a rally in Washington D.C. on Saturday featuring thousands of maskless rallygoers who won’t accept that President Trump lost grew increasingly violent, with at least four people stabbed at a gathering point for the Proud Boys.
It begins! Trump has fired up his brainless followers, and they have responded with the violence he wanted. Now what worries me is, if the violence escalates, will he claim an insurrection and declare martial law?
I could see him doing this, and suspending Congress, and beginning mass arrests of Democrat politicians (including Biden and Harris) as attempted overthrowers of the Republic.
So it’s 37 days now until the King of the Scum leaves and we can wave goodbye with both fingers. And if the Republicans want to be the permanent and implacable opposition, well, that’s fine. They’ll learn what it’s like to be on the receiving end of that from an increasing majority of the society. Sleep tight, gang, we’re coming.
So misguided. I’ll bet if you ask the same question to a Proud Boy and Antifa (whatever that is), they’d give the same answer: we’re fighting for liberty, against socialism, against tyranny, against a repressive government, and election stealing. We should just call both sides for who they are, hooligans except the sports team is democracy.
The fact that they didn’t even try concealed carry and instead respected the DC laws on firearms, shows how much this is just political theater. You need guns for a real insurrection, guys.
They were allowed to carry their manly guns in Olympia WA, and one person was shot. One report said the person shot was probably a counter-protester, the shooter was seen running away on video and putting on a red cap. I don’t know if that’s been confirmed. The counter-protesters were pretty aggressive, might have been the Antifa group up from Portland.
…and we on the outside of your borders are simply aghast and wondering…what’s next? Is this going to be the norm from here on in; the constant questioning of election results, disruption by hooligans, threats of dividing the country.
The answer is of course, it can’t but it is clear that there needs to be a reformation of your voting system. It’s a mess. One stumbling block is the GOP and its supporters. Another is your ancient Constitution.
Why does the brain dead media (including here) insist on categorizing “non-racist, non white supremacist citizens” with a right-wing created and favored slur-like button term? Is it to make a ridiculous “both sides” argument, or make it easier for those truly against Fascism, which includes most Americans, have to apologize for anything the right needs to pin on them?
