Trump needs to be arrested the minute Biden is sworn in. I don't give a sh**t anymore.

I'm hearing two rumors right now. One is that a person has been shot in the Capitol building. The other is that even the Tea Party representatives are saying Trump should be impeached for inciting this.

They got to do it.

Trump is going to get more people killed.

Man, we really screwed up by not hanging all the confederates after Civil War. So much of today can be traced to that decision.

Scumbags like Hawley and Cruz are really just trying to save their own asses right now.

They are finished. Their colleagues hate them and McConnell is going to leave them out to dry.

Also, all the talking heads on CNN calling this a literal "insurrection" will get what they're asking for.  If you go too far in demonizing these protesters/rioters, then you will invariably create the very demons you're supposedly petrified by.  

Law enforcement has learned to deescalate situations for the sake of public safety (which appears to be what's going on at the moment); I only wish our news media had the same sense of civic responsibility.  

The true enemy of the people.  100%


Yes, we should not be shooting people if we can avoid it at all costs. The police is right to deescalate things here.

I will not deescalate my rhetoric. I believe they are terrorists who are trying to commit an insurrection, so I will use the words that I believe appropriately describe the situation. I will not be censored.

Exactly.

It is sedition and these people should be dealt with accordingly.

Does Hawley realize that he is never going to be president. He got to know that right?

No, he really really thinks it's gonna happen even though he's unlikable, out of touch, and literally looks like a neanderthal.

It is delusional.

He will be lucky to finish 3rd in Iowa in 2024.

Hawley is actually very intelligent with a strong Educational resume, and he has the youth and looks that are advantages. But after watching clips of him at rallies during his Senate Election- I have definitely thought he completely lacks the necessary charisma or ability to command a crowd needed to ever have a shot at getting the nomination.  (he lacks even an once of charisma (esp in front of a crowd or campaign rally).

His only remote possibility was being picked as someone's running mate... which now is likely off the table imo.  Haley's stock as a potential VP pick probably went up today (as she & Hawley may have competed for being picked as a runningmate for some potential nominees).

He is too phony and the people get a sense of that. It is the same problem Cruz has. People hate disingenuous people. It is the the one trait that transcends both the left and the right. Trump stupidity and bigotry is authentic. It is the main reason why he was able to hijack the party, Hawley (and Cruz) just don't have it in them.
