Much different perspective than what many on our side have from yesterday, and certainly nothing that you'll hear from Hoax News. But I had a call from a friend in the movement. This is his perspective, but I tend to agree with it.
He saw yesterday as a victory of sorts. Yes, Trump lost, but that was expected to most of us.
What was not expected was that antifa or not, patriot's or not, a relative handful of people sent the elite spudgebudgers screeching like children, running for their basement.
The very people that last summer had claimed Trump was the one hiding out were quivering in their little mask-y clumps, as Lindsey Graham put it, in fear for their lives.
One could almost see him, Titanic-like, donning women's clothes and pushing men out of the way to get into the basement sanctum.
Here were the "most powerful people on earth" put to flight by a douche wearing viking horns & bearded mogsmogglers who couldn't threaten an egg
Graham's hysterical whimpering is very important, because, not bound by the DemoKKKrat "show now weakness" iron grip of Botoxic, HE let on what they ALL were feeling.
In short, my friend argued, these people doing nothing more than barging in and taking selfies put the fear of God into the ruling cabal.
They were embarrassed, humiliated, made to look petty in the eyes of the world.
To such a mob, John Calhoun would have pulled pistols. This was, I think, other than a few Puerto Rican terrorists in 1954, the first breaching of the Capitol since the Brits in the War of 1812.
(History factoid: Jesus Carter pardoned the Puerto Rican shooters).
By Jove, I think my friend is right.
I think THIS FEELING, this humiliation explains the hysterical overreaction of the 25th Amendment and impeachment today.
Like a bully decked by the glasses-wearing nerd, they had to get back up and beat up some helpless target like a juke box.
While the reality of Trump's loss--& equally important, the loss of a young woman's life to a rash cop shooter--is severe, never underestimate the psychological impact of such a moment. Allow me two historical analogies: in 1940 at the peak of the Battle of Britain, Churchill ordered Berlin to be bombed. It had zero tactical impact, had no chance of materially changing the war. but psychologically it struck a nerve with Hitler, who immediately (for the worse) changed the targets, giving the RAF the life it needed. Likewise, in 1942, Jimmy Doolittle's raid on Tokyo did very little actual damage, but it terrified the Japanese. The result was to green light Adm. Yamamoto's ill-conceived Midway campaign.
Think like a fascist elitist DemoKKKrat. The world saw them run from a handful of banner carrying middle-class people. The most powerful weapon any of them had was probably a vape.
They KNOW how they looked. Hoax News can try to conceal this all it wants, but these puffduffers were chased out of their "own house" by terrifying grandmas. (I know, it is our house--but not to them).
So what impact will this have? I don't know, but I do believe for the first time perhaps in years, some of these people fear us.
When they are scared, they make mistakes. They act rashly.
And one last positive development from yesterday. Truly our side has had its Gideon moment. We have certainly shed thousands of the less-committed, the "moderates." No matter which revolution you look at, the revolutionary party ALWAYS benefits by forcing moderates out. It steels their resolve & clears their vision.
This was true in the Algerian revolution against France & in the American revolution against England, where the Patriots sought to force people to choose between them and the Tories, knowing eventually they would win that choice.
So, I'm not here to pump sunshine, but realistically, I saw the enemy flinch big time yesterday.
right there with you LS...its only a victory if we keep the pressure on and keep rallying...
Yes,it is.
If they’re holding the president and his family hostage, Deep State isn’t fearful enough.
They will do something about it.
When the people fear their government, there is tyranny; when the government fears the people, there is liberty.
That was James O’Keefe’s point the other day. Don’t back down. Get MORE involved, and keep the pressure on the skunks!
There are ways to send messages that we are NOT going away. Intimidate the slaves who work for them, subtlety is a mighty force if used correctly. Don’t cower in fear of these communists who think they have won, but take measures (non violent) to combat their evil.
Trump’s Base is holding.
The GOPe knows it, which is why Pence won’t invoke the 25th.
If they knew Trump’s base was deserting him, it would have been a done deal by now.
they don’t fear us now they have illegally changed election laws in a handful of key states to allow mail in ballots without checking and verifying their legitimacy.
they will have ballot dumps for dems from here on out in these places.
Agreed. The unfortunate part is that one lady died and the cop who got hit in the head and died later.
Here’s how this is going to go: this will be all over the airwaves for 2-3 weeks, then the media will move on to the next outrage. You’re best just turning off the TV for a couple weeks. It’s not like anything new is coming out, just more “we condemn blah blah...” that you’ve already heard.
Longer term, the left and the establishment as a whole never expected something like this would happen or was even possible. THAT is why they were so cocky with the “don’t tell people what is a good way to protest” or “looting is okay”, “civility means you’re privileged” etc. They never expected a real counter-action. What keeps civil order is a healthy concern that if you cheat the system, you may suffer a consequence. Consequences happened, in their backyard, the mothership city of the establishment elites.
Again, NOT condoning destruction of property or attacks on people, from any side including the lady who got shot unnecessarily. It’s silly though that I have to repeat this ad nauseum.
How I see it, we had a pretty good show of force. But as soon as the gop, dems and msm called us out as violent insurrectionist, we slunk away in shame. It was that easy for them. Best make peace with your chains.

That's our Miss Lindsey: the first transgender U.S. Senator from my great state of South Carolina. /sarc
I don’t think the people at the Stop The Steal rally will let name calling back them down.
We don’t care.
Agree totally. I’ve said on here before that what happened on the 6th was the most glorious thing I have seen on television since the Berlin Wall came down.
I thought the overreaction by everyone to Tuesday’s events was a childish response. I think of liberals like little 7 year olds; how they change the rules, how they cry when they lose, how rules apply to everyone else but them, etc.
I agree with LS on this. They fear us. So, let’s use that!
That's what I'm doing. And I have deactivated my Facebook account for 7 days.
