RE: Trump
I think Guiliani was angling for a job with the landscapers.

I think he was sizing up some nice dildos at the ***** shop next door. Pretty solid reviews on Yelp.

RE: Trump
How much more violence is Trump, along with his sycophants, going to incite over the next 2 weeks?

I certainly hope a lot less than the leftist anarchists inflicted with their killings, lootings, thefts, and destruction of businesses.
We need to eliminate the extremes on both sides.

Some of which was done by righties, not leftists. Rittenhouse killed 2 just by himself.

And leftist anarchist groups infiltrated the mess yesterday.
As I said, extremists on both sides need to be eliminated.

Definitely. But the FBI considers the right-wing groups far more dangerous.

RE: Trump
Im trying to remember exactly when BLM attacked the US Capitol?
Violence must always be condemned, but what occurred yesterday was more than a protest turned violent.. it was a coordinated effort, incited by the President and his minions, to attack the our Capitol, in an attempt to disrupt if not forcibly overturn our election process.
This is a federal crime..https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/part-I/chapter-115
and all involved including the President and Giuliani must be prosecuted. In fact those senators and congressmen that supported Trump conspiracy claims should have some culpability here.

Exactly. Just like those in the leftist protests who killed people, destroyed businesses and the lives of the innocent owners, threw bricks into business to steal merchandise, set buildings on fire - they, too, should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Those are not protests. Those are criminal actions by those intent on causing harm and damage.

1. I agree, that destroying business, killing people..needs to be prosecuted to the fullest of the law.
With that said, I don't even know how the two events can be compared. The events are totally separate and incomparable. The assault on the capitol was an attempt at violence directly against the seat of government for the nation. The magnitude and implications of that event is far worse than street riots. Both are violent, but what happened last week was a direct attempt to halt peaceful transition of power. Peaceful transition of power is the very cornerstone and hallmark of our way of government.

RE: Trump
Hope I'm wrong but with so many Republicans still unwilling to admit that Biden even won, how can we expect Trump voters to suddenly stop being angry, and some of them violent, after being told for 3 months that the election was stolen from them?

I saw an article that talked about a poll saying "only" 1/3rd of people believed that the election was fraudulent. 1/3rd. Republicans only have maybe 46-47% of the vote. Which means that basically 2/3rds of Republicans still believe that the election was stolen. That is not good news.

Here we are 3 years later and Trump just won the Iowa caucus and will probably win the republican nomination. So much for getting rid of the extremes. Funny thing, when he lost the Iowa caucus in 2016 he said it was rigged…..why is it that it’s only rigged when he loses?

Nothing surprises me anymore. People choose to ignore the very history they themselves witnessed. the storming of the capitol was just 3 years ago. What we have been told is correct - you cannot get complacent in upholding this way of life, people will constantly try to tear it down. History repeats itself. frustrating - and Trump remains the ever conman who people delude into somehow he's looking out for all and not just for himself.
