What did the shooting of Ashli Babbitt accomplish for the left?

And whatever you come up with for an answer weigh that against a discussion where you are debating the pros and cons of staging such a shooting. The fact that I’m asking the question what the left got out of the shooting should tell you that they didn’t really get much out of it at all so why would they go through the extraordinary effort of staging such an event?

What you should be asking is, if we were to assume that this event were staged, what did they WANT to get out of it? You are missing the possibility that the event failed to get the desired results.

If I had to make a guess, given what I would consider extremely fake-looking reactions to the shooting and fake-looking pleas outside the building afterward, I would say that the desired result was inflammation of the crowd into engaging in a REAL insurrection-type event. In other words, they WANTED the Trump supporters to run in screaming like banshees and tearing everything apart, but they didn't get it. Why would they want that? To justify martial law and gun confiscation, blamed on, of course, white supremacist terrorists, or some such thing.

All you have to do is look at how hard they have been pushing that white supremacy terrorist narrative since the event to see how BADLY they wanted to have such an excuse to really crack down on political opponents.

The level of hysteria they have been ginning up regarding "insurrectionists", which is laughable given the video of people walking within the velvet ropes and preventing people from breaking windows and such, is ridiculous and almost inexplicable, but imagine what they would have done with an actual large-scale violent riot at the Capitol.

They WANTED an insurrection, and when they didn't get it, they simply invented one.

Or we could also ask what did they think the reaction of the crowd would be to her shooting?

They may have expected a reaction they didn’t get.

Not true. Ted Cruz was prepared to challenge all the questionable states. He had a stack of papers aimed at the voter fraud. When they pulled off the phony insurrection and resumed certification, all of it went bye bye. Everyone including that weasel Pence, go their Brutus knives out and started stabbing Trump. It gave them the excuse to erect a fence around the city and then falsely charge Trump with impeachment. It is only now with the hearing and Sicknicks mother wanting to know how her son died that the dems are starting to scramble for the coverup, via Pelosi. Telling you, Ashli Babbitts autopsy and death cert is the key to unraveling all of this. One person needs to go to all the hospitals in a 20 mile radius and find out which one admitted a female Caucasian with a gunshot wound to the neck between the hours of 3 and 6 pm on that day. You won't find one!
