Charge them with whatever the law says but that’s what it was.
Do you think anyone actually believes they could topple democracy by storming a single building?
That’s funny
Let's say they succeeded in taking over the capital. Trump would have no doubt scurried up there to declare the will of the people, not just the redbeck ratbags, the election was a fraud.
The next step would be to introduce Marshall law. Yes, Marshall law and he could do it now democracy has been crushed. Then of course declare himself the winner. The constitution wouldn't enter the situation. It never worried him before so it wouldn't then.
Congress would have scattered like rabbits and never return unless somehow the military took control of thr place.
Bear in mind, had they decided to rid the capital of rioters, do you think they wouldn't have a stash of guns, which we now know they did, to hold the building?
Then its a full blown gun fight and those idiots were so indoctrinated by Trump to do it. It would have been the only way for him to seize power. That is all he knows .
Keep in mind, 70 million thought he won so hes got a lot more cannon fodder if it started.
Furthermore, to play that provide down as a peaceful protest is disgraceful.regardless of your politics.
If that is what the modern day gop is, America is rooted.
Go further. If Trump were to win in 24, it would send that phsycopathic idiot the signal that America wanted fascism which they don't not do they deserve.
All the right might get a warm inner glow about defeating dems but simultaneously destroy the exact democracy and freedom they stand for. In fact, anyone who supported Trump on j6 is a traitor to the country.
I have for some time, politics in USA is the most partisan in the world and that is not healthy for democracy. The right will do anything, ANYTHING, to stop democrats.
Even if it means sacrificing democracy. Yes They hate them that much.
So don't be so ignorant to suggest it was anything but an insurrection to destroy democracy. That aside, statistics from the 24 election will prove, in my opinion, the same right wing toerags who worship Trump will vote for him if he gets the nod from the gop.
