Trump was dumb to encourage his supporters to come to a DC rally on January 6. There has never been a MAGA rally in DC that didn’t end in antifa-caused violence, with MAGA getting blamed

You didn’t need a crystal ball to predict something like this would happen

Nobody was happier that this rally was being planned than antifa, the Democrats and the media. It would give them all a chance to send Trump out of office in disgrace - and it would ensure that the evidence presented in Congress against the vote fraud would get drowned out and once again the American people wouldn’t see or hear it

Trump has a screw loose. The good thing about that is it means he doesn’t care about politically correct taboos - so he had no problem telling the truth about things that other Republican officials lied about for years. For instance in the 2016 debates he said out loud that George Bush was a disastrous president and invading Iraq was a disastrous stupid decision. Most Republicans knew deep down that these things were true, but there was a taboo against publicly saying so. Trump got booed at first for saying the truth out load - but when the politicians finally realized the people people were with him , they stopped booing. Some publicly admitted he was right. The others became nevertrumpers

Trumps refusal to be bound by pc taboos made his presidency great in many ways - such as by declaring a state of emergency to build the wall, when Congress (including Republicans) wouldn’t fund it

But his loose screw also means he makes some mistakes that a conventional calculating politician wouldn’t - such as holding a DC MAGA rally on electoral-counting day, which was sure to be used by the left to incite violence and damage his cause

You have a screw loose and you are dumb to think your disparaging comments are worthy of discussion. Run along home, doggy. Your kibbles are waiting.

Trump has a screw loose.

The only screw loose I see here is in your head... and Christie’s. You are just as bad as those who are calling for Trump to be unseated using the 25th Amendment for instability. BAH!

You seem to think that the only way is to cooperate with the Deep State. Agree with them. Go along, to get along. That way is just a slower way to reach the same socialist goals. Accept the Statist Quo... pun intended. That is what too many so called “conservatives” politicians have done for the past century, accept the latest Progressive gains as what they must conserve as a starting point, instead of aggressively pushing back in all areas. They seemed to think the only thing that counted was tax rates.

Donald Trump understood it was EVERYTHING, and struggled to grab back as much of our liberty as he could during his time in office!

The Casper Milquetoast conservatives were too damned comfortable arguing the Statist Quo status quo after losing time and time again the aggressive gains the Progressives carved out every time they gained ascendency.

The Progressives WILL now be aggressive again, and those so-called conservatives will write lots of scholarly articles about how bad those policies are which will be read among themselves. . . And they will raise completely ineffective objections to those gains, but they will happily party with their progressive colleagues in the evenings, and make investments in things that will make themselves money based on the progressive moves, all while feeling morally and snottily superior for taking the high road by not supporting that dirty politics of Donald Trump that got things done.

“Trump was dumb to encourage his supporters to come to a DC rally on January 6. “

NO, he wasn’t. You are just cowering to the liberals. Those of us old enough to remember the 1990’s and all the barking the liberals did and the scared GOP cowering know that there is no pleasing them. Appeasement never works.
