Point being what? The question is was it organized or orchestrated to overthrow a government.


The intention of the protestors was to delay the counting of electoral votes and intimidate them counting the votes differently from the votes cast by the state electors in December, which would be illegal had Congress done it. The intention was to have different President inaugurated in 2 weeks. They had stun guns, zip ties, with them, had tied nooses outside. If that's not a coups, what is it?

And you are showing you aren’t as smart as you think you are by claiming the media and Dems haven’t created propaganda against Trump and the people that voted for him.

this is just a straw man

you have binary thinking, just like the Leftists

Be honest, if libs did this, you would be going insane saying the same thing and that the traitors need to be put down. But, to be fair, the media and gov would probably be calling it a peaceful protest.

So, she impeached him already in a true “coup” attempt. The fact that none of those involved in the lies to the FISA court didn’t end up in jail is proof that this country is screwed.

everyone with the binary mindset is an utter hypocrite these days

remember when this board was going NUTS during the riots when the media was creating the propaganda that it was right wing instigators?

So running into the building with stun guns and nooses was supposed to overtake trained people with guns?

And where specifically did Trump instruct anyone to unlawfully breach the Capitol complex?

but it's irrelevant now b/c Patriots just gave them the power to create that propaganda and demand adherence




What specifically defines a “Patriot” in your estimation. Is it Q-Anon followers? Is it those who breached the Capitol? Is those who attended the rally January 6th? Is it all Trump supporters? Is it those who believe the election was stolen?

Democrats projecting again. They’re the ones trying to unseat the leader of the country.

I didn't need to read minds, I read posts before and during the Capitol raid. People were calling for executions and 'Burning it all down'

Don't pretend it didn't happen.

It was rhetorical question. I’ve read the transcript of the speech myself. I don’t need anyone else to decipher it for me.

Here it is:

Those who stormed the capital were populist, several white nationalist and fringe Q folks. Good for them they made themselves known internationally as threats and will be dealt with from now on as such.


Crazy they can overthrow our government with such ease. Wonder what China could do if a bunch of rednecks can do it.

Not everyone was in on it, but there was a definite organized effort to invade the Capitol.
