This is a serious issue that does not bode well for the future.

Give me a break with the mismanagement/lack of police presence. There wasn’t a lack of police presence in context, because no one thought Trump would actually instigate people to go try and overturn the election as a mob lol. That’s like blaming a guy who got robbed for not carrying a weapon to defend himself with “well if you’d had a weapon you wouldn’t have been robbed so we really should t blame the robber that much” smh
*temporarily stopped the certification of an election. If you think this wouldn’t be temporary, then enlighten me as to how it permanently (or until next election) could change the next president?

There absolutely was mismanagement, and people were fired for it. The police presence has to be enough to control a rowdy crowd, it’s no different than a rock concert

Here’s the article discussing the mistakes made, nm he resigned before he was fired https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.cnn...ils/index.html

Edit: and btw it was Democrat Congress including Nancy Pelosi blaming the police event planning. So keep that in mind when you call my viewpoint alt-right

The overturning the government wouldn’t. Especially considering the rioters weren’t armed. Maybe I just suck at insurrection but I can’t figure out how unarmed rioters permanently change government function
Thats a lie. They were armed. They had guns. They had weapons. I guess nobody in that crowd was a trained knight so the weapons dont count unless they were anti-tank or something, right? Cause anything to cover for the rioters. "only lumber jacks know how to use axes" or "flag pole is not a weapon even if you swing it 50 mph into my head" say something silly like that..

It was the police, right? It was their fault for not having a thousand officers there and trusted the christian patriots, the honest people of america, to act like human beings. I guess that was just too much to expect from the GOP. 20 mins later, they were smearing shit everywhere then looting and jumping around like a bunch of animals hootin and hollering.

Think it was enough to topple the current government and install Donald Trump as President? Because that’s what people are suggesting

I mean, I dunno. I did see a crossbow in there

“How many firearms were recovered in the capitol or on the grounds?”

“None.”

The left's fundamental hypocrisy on Jan 6th is:

-It was much worse than BLM riots because it was an attack on our sacred institutions!

Pick one, you idiots.
Twitter is not the real world. The vast majority of the people you lump into "the left" don't think our sacred institutions are all racist, nor do they support the riots.

They werent trying to overturn the election, they were collecting souvenirs like podiums and taking selfies, the video footage itself shows they were there for tourist reasons or to find evidence of wrong doing.

There is no evidence whatsoever except accusations that they were trying to overturn the election, all evidence indicates it was just a mob and a riot.

No organized effort on any part to overturn the election with force. No evidence anyone was attempting that whatsoever.

dems are so pathetic. it's sad.

Joey a total failure. worst prez ever. They reduced to makin up stories about seein horse paste at the movies and claiming inflation either not so bad or trump's fault. they can't run on any issues that they did anything good for the country, so it's all just hyperbole and histrionics cuz they suck at everything when they actually have to govern.

Imagine comparing some businesses getting burned to an assassination attempt on spots 1-3 in the presidential line of succession in the most powerful country in the world.

Thirsty people in this thread should check out urine, refreshing as well as anti-covid I hear.
