“ You would make a wonderful battered spouse.”
You still support yesterday’s “storming of the Capitol” - and still think I am like “a battered spouse” to say it was a stupid thing to do (if MAGA did it, not antifa posing as MAGA)???
THATs ok, apology accepted. We can all let our passions carry us away sometimes, but in the light of the next day everyone can agree that the rally didn’t accomplish any good for Trump and MAGA , and “storming the Capitol” was stupidity that has only accomplished bad for Trump and MAGA.

I think you may have missed my point yesterday and in other responses yesterday I made it clearer.
We didn’t get here overnight.
We could start with the “peaceful” movements of the 60’s featuring Weather Underground with Bill Ayers and his bombings of police stations (deaths ensued). But let’s stick with the more recent.
We have seen years of abuses such as storming the Wisconsin Capital while it was in session and shutting it down and beating the legislators (2011), Code Pink infiltrating the Senate during the Kavanaugh hearings and threatening and intimidating Senators, GOP congressmen being shot, our cities burned in the name of resistance and social justice and on and on.
And there were no consequence for any of it.
Yesterday was shameful but the logical conclusion of seeing all that on TV. People say: “oh look, rioting and storming government buildings is the way we get what we want.” And look what happens. What a shock!!
At the core of the problem is that we have a two tiered system of outrage and worse, criminal justice. And the media and politicians participating in it only dump gas on the fire. It only further alienates and enrages those who are subject to the two tiered system who look at it and say that they have no other way.
So while yesterday was a shameful act, those who now decry it while having remained silent or allowed themselves to be silenced ( not saying you) when shameful actions were taking place over the last decades are themselves shameful. They are eager participants in the Orwellian new order.
I suspect that many of them are happy to have this as a useful tool to kill off Trump and his movement. Perhaps they are correct. But their rank hypocrisy is turning whatever victory they (and I mean Crenshaw and the rest of the GOP) think they have into a hollow one. The GOP died yesterday and just doesn’t realize it yet.
Yes, plenty of “shameful” actions to go around. We did not arrive at our Capital being stormed overnight. The path was paved to that event.
