I'm not a fan of the slandering of the French Revolution, but the rest is good.

Many left-wing twitter users are saying it's the real face of America.
They consider it as the worst country ever in the history of mankind.
Their solution is f America to be dismantled, forgotten, erased forever.

I’m so relieved that I didn’t give in to the temptations I had multiple times during the last year to vote for Trump .

He’s such a terrible human being , and I would have felt guilty  it for a long long time if I had done so , so I’m so relieved that I refused to vote for the guy

Wow, you’re so brave. You heard the President talk and act like a fascist for four years and you courageously decided at the last second not to vote for him. I hope you get a medal of freedom.

I never supported Trump, and I also didn't vote for any R candidate on the ballot this year (because of McConnell ramming through ACB, which I felt was unfair to half the country). Do I get a medal of freedom?

No, but Young Kim does.

Yay!

Young Kim represents the only type of Republican I still respect. The ones that put the country over just the GOP and their lust for power.

I hope she doesn't disappoint us!  Purple heart

Hi - it's page 38 and I just got here. Can someone please give me a quick rundown of what I missed?
Just put on a TV

Aren’t you supposed to be muted?

Sergeant at Arms says the Capitol is secure and certification will soon resume.

If Hawley or Cruz or any of those other little s—ts still object after this...

I’d just think long and hard if I were them. Their party has already been ripped to shreds over this. How much deeper do they want to dig their own graves?

So...how does this influence the 2022 midterms?

There was already reason to believe they would be different than normal, especially after these run-offs, but now? I’m just gonna go ahead and call it: I think the GOP will have the most pathetic performance for an opposition party in Congress in generations. Between this, the vaccine, the economy roaring back... It will in the best of worlds be the roaring 20s but with Democrats instead of Republicans dominating.

Devil's advocate: we just saw, on live TV, that a large number of Americans in fact support this kind of action.

Hot take: Discussion of electoral consequences are meaningless and ungermaine at the moment. Even on an election-centric forum.

This would be like asking about electoral consequences on 9/11 or 11/22/63. Best to leave it at "We don't know" and move on to the bigger picture.

This also a sad way to show that the cops can abstain from using deadly force when they really want to .

As long as the Electoral College exists the GOP will never be able to shed the MAGA wing.

Start convincing red states to join the popular vote compact. Looking at you Mittens.

The million man march didn’t mean a sizable part of the electorate was black nationalists. I suspect these actions will be STRONGLY condemned by the public at large. Will be interesting to see if Trump has the lowest approval rating ever for an outgoing president; usually they get a bump as their terms end.

We’ll see. Morally of course they’ll have no qualms, but in terms of career advancement, this is not no longer necessarily the best option for them.

No, I’m not a Republican but I still love my country and recognize the need for change. These people see the country as a lost cause and have no loyalty to it.
