How do you know what Trump does in private, bubba? Much less what he thinks in private. I mean damn, baw. You discredit yourself with shits like that. And I’d like to know a little more about what you’re talking about with the ridicule thing. Point me in the direction of what you’re referring to with that. Because I’m thinking that’s even more discredit action.

Fool. No one was arrested until after Trump left office. He could not pardon anyone then.

Dude, Trump was THE SITTING PRESIDENT during a U.S. Presidential election that didn't pass the public smell test and wasn't allowed to be fairly and thoroughly scrutinized. You can not separate America and Trump in this case--as they comprise the same issue.

If a potentially illigimitate U.S. Presidential election isn't worth protesting over, then what the frick is in this country?

Your angle is retarded. No one likes Trump because they think Trump likes them and makes them feel special. This just shows your own derision and how out of touch you are.

The loyalty to Trump - that's what happens when you're the only one telling the truth. Maybe someone else should start telling the truth

Fixed for you.

Give credit where credit is due - Trump has convinced people who he ridicules and loathes in private to declare unyielding loyalty to him.


Good point

It's funny seeing the Trump influencers on social media that have been trashing DeSantis and his supporters for the past two months demand they stand in support of Trump.

The vast majority of Americans have no idea what all that even means or entails. Which I don’t mean as a knock on them. Maybe the opposite, actually.

Could have pardoned them too. But didn't because, you know, reasons.


He can’t pardon them until they are charged.

Of course you can. Everyone there could have protested and done so with simply American flags. Do you not see that waving Trump flags WHILE rioting is partly why the images stick so hard for idiots that follow legacy media? The Left could not have made worse photos had they literally handed out Trump gear to protesters when they arrived in DC.

I didn't argue otherwise...just that if the goal was to protest "For America" then that could have been easily done without Trump branded merch.

That would be easier to argue if not for all the Trump flags...


It's still extremely easy to argue.

You do understand that antifa can carry a Trump banner just as easy as they can wear a Trump hat?

The MSM had already chosen its side and had been working for the Democratic Party for years. Those images didn't do anything except "prove" the cognitive bias of Leftists already convinced that Trump/Conservatives were evil and the election results fair and valid.

Waving the flag of the sitting President whom you perceived to have won the U.S. Presidential election is just as valid and synomous as waving an American flag to protest fair elections.

Did I argue there were NO American flags?

Why is it so hard to accept that optics matter, and the optics of that day are partly why The Left has been able to spin what was FAR MORE MINOR than anything that took place during The Summer/Fall of Floyd into what amounts to Trump's Army attempting to overthrow America?

Having Trump Branded flags in EVERY photo is why.

and the perfect choice for the antifa there - and there were busloads of them - to use in the Democrats HOAX - the completely staged Democrats HOAX.

Are you suggesting that a large enough portion of Trump Flags that day were being waved by Antifa?

Yes, I'm 100% aware Antifa was there that day, as well as Feds.

But what the point of mentioning either unless you're suggesting Trump flags were not being waved by organic protesters there that day. and if that's what you're saying is there any evidence to back this claim?

Respectfully, this is kind of proving their point.

There is a huge difference between a Trump flag and an American flag.

Unfortunately the Dems use of J6 was one of the factors in Republicans poor performance in the midterms

President Trump being arrested on Tuesday is going to be the most devastating day for some folks here.

Right.
You just haven't quite worked out which folks those are, or at what point the devastation will fully register.

You realize you and shutter are arguing opposite sides here, right?

You seem to be arguing Antifa was the culprits waving Trump flags whereas he's arguing Trump flags are the same thing as American flags given the circumstances.

It would help if you guys could pick a point.

That said, I'd 100% agree that anyone holding a Confederate Flag that day was a plant of some sort, or if there was a NAZI flag that showed up freshly unfolded at the Trucker Protest in Ottawa last winter.

But Trump flags? Those have seemingly been standard gear for Trump rallies since 2016.
