It’s VERY important at this point to indicate to Democrat friends and family members that far more than half of the country considers them intellectually- and emotionally-impaired dullards, deeply influenced by the opinions of celebrities from hokey TV talent shows, and likely rendered more than a little unbalanced by the mood-altering drugs they were given as adolescents in a vain attempt to curb their erratic and often violent behavior. Also, drive home the point that they are worthless and completely unwelcome in your home and indeed your life from this point forward.

If antifa wasn’t orchestrating the violence, where were they? Since when do they let Trump supporters have a rally without staging their own counter-protest?

No you are not. It started before he ever mentioned the Capital.

I think the plan was to start the attack on the Capital when Trump speech should have ended but Anti-farts didn’t realize that his was running really late.

The riots were initiated by Antifa to create a false flag event.

A lot of the political disruption in the US is the work of Anglophile americans.

These are the ones who get all giddy over the doings of the inbred royal family and desire that the US subordinate itself to the needs of that nasty little kingdom.

Traitors

I see your point but there are exceptions to the rule, sorta.

I’m good friends with a British couple who truly believe that rulers truly care about the people they rule over. Is that part of their upbringing?

They raised their kid to be Marine and love our military. They do volunteer work for our military guys. But they only watch CNN.

Good hearted people and I don’t get it

Once I was reading a newspaper from 1821 or 1822 (on microfilm). It was breathlessly following the latest scandal involving the British royal family. This when a lot of the patriots who fought in the Revolutionary War were still alive.

The Left considered Trump to be illegitimately PoTUS precisely BECAUSE the American people overcame Democrat dirty tricks in 2016 and chose their own Head of State. Now that we have had the most feckless, addled, corrupt person possible installed in the White House by a fascist junta, we are supposed to keep our mouths shut and accept it? Unity by instituting censorship, propaganda to obtain submission?

Excellently said! It's hard to fathom that the Democrat cheaters will prevail but it should light a raging bonfire under us all to win hearts and minds so that they will NOT be able to do this ever again. We cannot surrender OR lose hope.

Encouraging people to (peacefully) express their displeasure with massive vote fraud and a stolen election is not, in fact, encouraging violence.

Leftists who talk about attacking and even killing the President and his followers ARE, in fact, encouraging violence.

But according to the left’s twisted world view, inciting violence doesn’t actually cause people to be violent, only talking about freedom and other conservative issues causes violence.

Agreed. Sadly some of our folk saw them go in and thought
they had a green light.

They just cost Trump his second Impeachment.

Folks mean well, but when you’re in places like that, your
actions reflect on the person you support.

How tragic that some of our folks played right into the
hands of these filthy sub-humans.

I don’t know how you get that across.

Some folks here, and myself included years ago, don’t quite
grasp the depravity and evil intent of the Communists. It’s
so bad your mind can’t grasp it all. “Why that would never
happen!” Well, yes it can and has.

People are floating on a river in Egypt, de Nile.

Imagine how much less folks out there grasp of this, when
they haven’t been exposed to what is going on like we have.

People are waking up and asking more questions, but it is
still and uphill battle.

If you tell your family something like that, they won’t know
how to process it.

At that time our society was pretty much evenly split - those who wanted war with Britain (patriots) and those who wanted war with France (tories).

One of my measurements of people I encounter is if they are Anglophile.

Anglophiles played no small part in pushing America toward civil war - encouraging democrats to secede then standing back as both sides butchered each other.

The English are no friends of America.
Anglophiles are traitors.

what do you expect from the English “Bolshevik Broadcasting Conspiracy”?

Honest journalism died in England a long time ago. Seems that Karl Marx picked London as his home for the right reason - it was ready for Marxism a long time ago.

Millions of these people are COMPLETELY low-info and only vote Democrat because their parents and grandparents voted Democrat. “It’s what we do.”

They’re completely clueless about what “their” party has become, and what they do know, is pretty much only what their TV wants them to know.

The report this evening from John Solomon of justthenews.com is that the FBI and others knew this was planned for days if not weeks ahead of time, that McConnell and Pelosi were briefed on the real possibility of a planned attack but Trump and the NSA and the White House were not.

Pelosi and McConnell screwed up; ignored the warnings and did nothing about it. Didn’t ask for National Guard or additional police help. So, they pass the blame onto Trump so they aren’t held accountable for the catastrophe that ensued. McConnell should immediately be removed from his position. If he did nothing about this, he should be recalled and removed from office.

Trump was impeached today because of these disgusting, back-stabbing criminals with Liz Cheney leading the wolfpack to take him down. Cheney and McConnell are the lowest of the low. I despise them and any who voted for Trump’s impeachment today.

I agree with that, but if you told all members of your family
how the Commuists are now in almost full control of our nation,
they’d probably laugh and think you were being over-reactive.
