“And every January 6th, we eat chicken to remind us how our brave politicians ran like scared chickens to get away from Americans with deadly flags.”

"Where were you on 1/6 1/20 when we almost lost Democracy in America?"

There, fixed it. Except that the "almost" part is still very much in question.

As I've posted before on Free Republic ...

This jackass was a regular guest of radio legend Don Imus over the years, and Imus exposed him as a fraud without even trying. It occurred during a radio interview some months into Obama’s first term back in 2009, as I remember it. I’ll paraphrase the exchange here:

BESCHLOSS: “I believe Barack Obama has the highest IQ of any president in U.S. history.”

IMUS: “Really? What’s his IQ?”

The uncomfortable dead silence at the other end of the phone line captured the idiocy of that statement perfectly. No serious presidential historian would ever make an outlandish statement like that without having even the most basic piece of information he’d need to support it.

The rally has proven to be a disaster and should never have been called in the first place.

Regret much?

This would be similar to the thief reminding himself of how the last time he almost got caught.

Yes and the left is going to squeeze everything they can out of it, for as long as possible. The hand wringing, spit-slinging, angry fist waving, and moaning about it all is never going to stop as they command and lecture us to ignore the facts.

Same as it ever was, only more.

This is the bad government and absurdity that you get when the media is owned and controlled by those with an adherent to only ONE IDEOLOGY. California, Chicago, Portland and Seattle etc are what you get when your state and cities are controlled by ONE PARTY.

The moral is that every politically influential entity must have an opposing and opposite influence or bad government and corruption rules.

Beschloss is supposed to be a historian.

Guess he forgot about the _real_ attack on the Capitol:

You know—the one where _actual_ Congress-critters were shot on the floor...

Do you know why it was so easy for Viking Horn Guy and a bunch of nitwits from "Animal House" to sack the U.S. Capitol in 15 minutes? I'ts because there was almost no law enforcement presence at the Trump rally.

And there was no law enforcement presence because they knew they didn't need it. Anyone who has been to a Trump rally in the last five years knows that the attendees are among the most law-abiding people you'll ever meet.

mentioning how "close" the rioters were, in his opinion, to "assassinations and/or hostage-taking."

Not a single one was armed, not even with boxcutters. What a clown.
