They don't trust anyone else to come in and moderate it, but they can't moderate it from within because around 50% hate the establishment and are willing to fight against it for their beliefs, while 52% believe fully in it. yeah, it's fucked.

efcfanwirral Posted January 6, 2021 Report Share Posted January 6, 2021 (edited) to be fair you look at what Trump and his supporters are like, and how many votes he got in the official numbers and, if you were worried about your country and it was a pretty close vote you'd probably consider some kind of underhand tactics to make sure they didn't get power for 4 more years right? That's why I can't 100% say there wasn't some kind of fraud and at the same time can't 100% say I disagree with it if there was. Even though I know it's wrong That said, how long do you think til Biden and the old establishment invade another ME country once they're in power again? No option is a good one over there Edited January 6, 2021 by efcfanwirral 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now the Trumpets are actually all over the capitol building. Police need to swoop in hard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm targeting a few individuals on the frontline with spray is a bit different than the launching grenades in to crowds to disperse them like that was happening at the BLM marches. No rubber bullets to be seen here either. No wonder they’re managing to completely bypass the police presence and storm/scale the building.

Wait until the DC police arrive to support the Capitol Police. That'll be fun. National Guard have been mobilised as well from what I remember.

Trump has gone even further than I thought he would to remain president and so his base are more riled up than ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squirrelarmy Posted January 6, 2021 Report Share Posted January 6, 2021 It’s pretty much the equivalent of storming the Bastille, Reichstag or Winter Palace. Would never expect to see this in the modern age. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lycra Posted January 6, 2021 Report Share Posted January 6, 2021 The actions of Trump over the last few days are impeachable in their own right. First attempting to coerce officials, now incitement to riot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
