Assassination attempt on Donald Trump - threadbans in OP

I'm pretty sure he was referring to the people who were casually walking around the Capitol building taking pictures and chatting with the security staff…people who probably had no idea they were about to be accused of trying to overthrow the Government of the USA….without weapons….

What do people think, the US Government came close to losing control of the US to a guy wearing face make up and feathers around his head?

I think Trump inspired an insurrection to delay Biden's certification as POTUS. Trump's 'plan' to cheat his way was based around the fake electors scheme.

Stooges like Ron Johnson would've raised the issue when his state was to be counted on Jan 6, and if Pence had gone along, the election thrown into the House where each state's delegation would vote; so, swing states with majority GOP representation, would've given the election to Trump. This is why John Eastman's been disbarred as the 'architect' of this.

Pence, to his eternal credit, was having none of this fake electors crap

If Pence had not brought the reps back on Jan 6 after the riot to conclude the voting, who knows what might have happened. If Pence had been disabled/killed/whatever, who knows. Uncharted territory but none of it good.

As for 'the people who were casually walking around….' Really? Casually walking around the Capitol with its walls smeared with sh1t, police everywhere and broken windows and ransacked offices? Butthurt that they trespassed and were caught at it? Even without firearms, they had plenty of weapons.

How would they have killed Pence? With a stapler robbed off a desk? Would they have planned that do you think? And the footage from inside the building does not reflect the footage from outside the building….lads were taking pictures whilst walking between the ropes!!

If you look at that pic from a 45 degree angle and squint your left eye, she kinda looks like she is giving a Nazi sign!! Maybe the lads are right!!!

It's not a great plan though is it…a mob beating a Vice President to death in what would normally be one of the most secure building in the Country. And what would happen then, if they did manage to out muscle the security staff and murder Pence, would the US Army surrender at that point?

But to think what we saw was an insurrection is ridiculous

I think what is ridiculous is pretending the violent mob were just well to do tourists having a lovely day out.

Are you legally obliged to take the contrary angle on every single topic?

That was totally out of order.

Haven't they enough on their plates already without being accused of being behind a criminal lying rapist?

I think there was a lot of violence outside the building that much is clear, and those people should rightly be punished.

But inside the building, it was clear that there people just strolling around who did look more like tourists than insurrectionists…I don't know how you can say otherwise, that footage was buried until last year…we still haven't been shown the rest of footage for some odd reason.

In my defense, I don't think the violent baying mob who tried to burn down the Whitehouse whilst Trump was inside during the summer of 2020 were insurrectionists or assassins, they were just a violent mob.

Are you legally obliged to gobble up whatever your news feed shoves your way?

I saw security running. I saw people smashing doors and windows. I saw Senators running in fear in corridors. I saw senators and staff crouched down behind desks.

Is this normal run of the mill behaviour for tours there? How do they get any work done at all?

I'm asking you as you are denying that it was an insurrection. You should let some of the men imprisoned for insurrection know that you have proof it wasn't an insurrection. Maybe they could have done with you as their attorney?

Some people should definitely take a walk away from this thread:-)

Did you see the footage I described?
