Finally a real concession; I'm surprised. Or at least close as we'll ever get.


I refuse to watch his video.  What does he say, in the way of concession?

If you're still a Republican after this...even if you dislike Trump and even if you voted against him...if you're still a Republican, you need to do some soul searching.

The video is actually very good. He should have recorded this video on November 6 or 7 when it became clear that he had lost the election.

He should resign now to avoid being impeached and Pence should pardon him.


Agreed, it's about as presidential as Trump gets.


There is nothing presidential about him; he's a terrorist, and an admitted one who encouraged and praised acts of violence against the nation.

There is nothing he can say or do now to make up for that.

Last line clear hint for 2024. If he truly does leave office on January 20th and nothing weird happens again then that's his plan.


And I guarantee you the blue avatars condemning him now will gladly vote for him again in 2024, because "muh Biden," or "muh Kamala," or whatever else.

Nope, I won't. "Fool me once, can't fool me again!" - GWB


I'm gonna hold you to that Wink

Honestly, I do know everyone is mad...but I also know the average person has a short memory, especially when it comes to politics.  So, again, Imma hold you to it Cheesy

The three Trump Supreme Court justices need to resign too, but not until Biden is in office.

As he has proven again and again during his "Presidency", Donald Trump eventually always reverts back to his old self after he has been forced to temporarily act presidential. So I wonder whether we will see him attacking Adam Kinzinger for being a "RINO" or the recently resignated personnel from his administration as "losers" before January 20 comes. I mean his Twitter account is now unlocked again.

He’ll backtrack very soon, probably before he leaves office.

That’s why he needs to go.

Good.  He should.  He never will, because all his cares about is his political career, even over his wife and his father.

These past few days have been surreal. Of all the many things I could have seen going wrong in the future, I never would have guessed that the all-powerful government that fought the War on Terror and dominated the planet would have faced a failed coup.


I saw it happening but almost everyone said I was a doomer.

The only fix going forward is to vote like you never have before and ONLY for Democrats...never a Republican, and never third party.

I live in an 80% Trump county, and there is no MAGA opression.

On the other hand, I’m afraid to mention my political beliefs to people in my area, because MAGA hats are violent people.

Any chance of Trump's approval rating falling to around 30% over the next week and a half, following his incitement of a terrorist attack?

I would love to see an average of polls showing him at 30% approval and 60% disapproval.

More blood on Trump’s hands, as well as Ted Cruz’s and Josh Hawley’s.

Arrest them all.

There can be no more tolerance for people who would side with a now proven and even admitted traitor.

Am I the only one who thinks Trump can recover from this by 2024?
Or am I just a doomer?


I have no question he could win a Republican primary again.

He could win another primary tomorrow.

There are only two things I am willing to hear from Trump supporters right now.

1) "I am sorry. My vote aided and abetted an attempt at a fascist coup in the United States. I will now live the rest of my life attempting to atone for what I have done."

2) "I am clearly a terrible judge of character. Democrats, please educate me. How did you know the warning signs of Trump's narcissistic, dictatorial personality before I did? Before I ever cast another vote, I should learn how to watch for these things."

Anything else is either apologism, whataboutism, or genuine fascism.
I am sorry about not believing the Moscow prostitute pee stories. Those who manufactured them meant well even if they weren't true.


Do you support the coup attempt that occurred last Wednesday?

Do you support any future coup attempts?

Rep. Brad Schneider tests positive for COVID:




Is there a way to punish these Republicans?  Many of them are in safe districts so they won’t be voted out.  Can they be removed from any duties or anything?

More Republicans are now freaking out and refusing to go through the medal detector.

Is there someone (media) showing this live?.
If so, where.








Why are they being allowed to push their way through?

If I did this the cop would slam me to the ground, and rightfully so.

If these Congresspeople don’t want to walk through a metal detector, they should be forced out physically if necessary.

CNN on air is reporting Mr. Trump considers pardoning himself, Don Jr. and Rudy for their role in the terrorist attack.


Could a self pardon allow him to run in 2024 even if he’s barred from doing so by the Senate?
