“This is one of the most embarrassing moments in the history of our Republic," Cleaver said.

Honestly, I felt kind of proud at the end of the day.

**There may well be a time for violence. This wasn’t it.**

While I wouldn’t have broken windows to get in, I would have been willing to be right outside any window or door shouting.

That being said, not as much as a single scratch or bruise on any member of congress, or leo.

Fixing a window or door? Big deal. Ever replaced one? Pretty easy. My first time was when I was 11 I think, after fouling a baseball in my family’s backyard.

It is strange how two people can view an event and come away with two totally different viewpoints as to what happened.

There are those who believe that Trump is the antichrist and should be removed from office, locked up, and the key thrown away as a result of the chaos that occurred yesterday. Those people claim the he incited a riot, caused an insurrection, and is responsible for a young lady being killed at the capitol. They claim that Trump was the worst thing that ever happened to America.

I, however, see the situation quite differently. I see a man who is different from most of the others. I see a man who is genuinely concerned about America and Americans much unlike most of his opposition. I see a man who has done more for America in four short years, with each of those years being hamstrung with bogus charges and investigations, than most other presidents before him. I see a man who has improved the quality of life for the average man. I see a man who has put America back on the map as a leader in this world while other presidents wanted to apologize to the world for being America. I see a man, who is admired by millions of citizens, who can draw large crowds to rally in short periods of time. I see a great man. He should be historically recognized as one of the greatest presidents ever. But that will probably not happen because the people who write the history are the same people who counted the vote in 2020.

I see what happened in DC on January 6, 2021 as the culmination of the greatest plan by evil people to undo what millions of citizens fought against, with many giving their lives in their efforts, and that is the war against socialism and communism. Yes, I see that they succeeded. A placeholder, who has hibernated for a year, will be inaugurated in several weeks only to be shortly replaced by the groups that Orwell wrote about in his book '1984.' I see that they succeeded, not only in cheating their way to victory but also corrupting the media, the law enforcement, and the courts to facilitate that victory. I see that they have finally achieved making the Constitution as 'just another piece of paper with some guidelines.' Their fight against DJT started when he announced his plan to run for president while coming down the elevator years ago. That same vitriol has heightened and peaked at the counting of illegitimate electors yesterday by hapless politicians who wonder where their next porkchop is coming from.

Yesterday there was a count and a rally. Over half of the country was represented by about a hundred thousand trump supporters who thought that these greedy politicians would do the right thing and throw out an election that was dirty, fraudulent, and unconstitutional. Those people were protesting that dirty election. They were peacefully protesting. DJT spoke at the rally. He suggested that they march toward the capitol to show that they wanted a fair election. They were not breaking the law. Then when the march neared the capitol a force of antifa assumed front positions, fought shortly with the capitol police who then stood aside to allow the antifa group, along with a few weak-minded Trump followers, to enter the capitol. It was when they were inside that a brave capitol cop or SS agent shot an unarmed young lady to death. Nobody is speaking about who the cop was who pulled the trigger. Nobody is asking why he pulled that trigger. Nobody is asking who the antifa members were who caused the breach of the capitol. Nobody is asking why the capitol police stood aside and allowed the breach. Everybody is, however, heaping fault where they have successfully heaped it for over four years, on Donald J. Trump. I honestly think that yesterday's event was coldly and carefully calculated by those who have fought against conservatism for four years. They have successfully stolen a presidential election in what used to be the greatest nation on earth. Now it is just another banana republic.

Actually, it was a glorious moment in history where Americans peacefully stormed the People’s house to try to convince politicians to not kill America. We failed to do that as the corrupt and evil used the event to spread their hateful propaganda against Americans and then proceeded to vote in a scum bag who they all knew did not win the election. It was a coup that succeeded and the entire world is going to suffer for their evil they have done and are going to do. These are not European socialists who went to this length to destroy America. These are tyrannical evil individuals who collectively wish to enslave and rule over the people.

“The hotheads blew it for Trump and all his supporters.”

Some of the hotheads were antifa infiltrators who acted the way they did precisely to discredit trump supporters.
