Catharsis. Not just for those protesting/rioting today, but for all of us. It takes events like this for our national purpose to be allowed to change and update. Whatever may come of this, we should relish this opportunity to break the "end of history" ethos that has strangled our spirit for the past 30 years.
If we had a more transformative Democrat as president-elect (i.e., not Biden), he would go on national television tonight to announce the immediate establishment of a provisional government, reconstitute the House and Senate (w/ Ossoff and Perdue being seated immediately) and implement martial law.
Use this opportunity to flip the table and unleash all the pent-up social/political change we've needed since WWII.
There is no "both sides do it" or "whataboutism" here at all whatsoever.
This is 100% Right Wing, 100% Republican, 100% Trump Supporters.
NOTHING ELSE!!!!
