On Tuesday’s broadcast of Fox News Radio’s “Guy Benson Show,” NRSC Chair Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) said that President Donald Trump should and could have had a faster response to the riot that took place at the U.S. Capitol on Wednesday.
Scott said, “I do believe the president could have responded faster. But I think it’s irresponsible for people on the left to say that the president told people to break into the Capitol, which he did not.”

I like and respect Rick Scott a lot but does everybody has to throw their two cents in about what happened at the Capitol?
To: ChicagoConservative27
As I understand it, Trump was still giving a speech when ANTIFA started the riot at the Capitol.

I can accept his comment. But it’s easy to criticize in hindsight.

Wasn’t Trump still speaking at the Ellipse when the riot started?

UGH, do these folks realize that they are contributing to the demise of America? It only will 10-15% of really pis*sed off Trump supporters to boycott voting and every last one of these Republicans will lose their seats.

So the Capitol Police not accepting assistance from FedGov before everything even started wasn’t fast enough, Skeletor? Disgusting.

Scott, you gutless wonder, ask your leadership why they refused extra security, why they allowed the doors to be left unsecured, and Capitol Police to allow entry...
This is on YOUR heads, not Trump’s.

Rick forgets that our state went for Trump. They’re all such cowards.
To: ChicagoConservative27
I wonder if he said the same thing to Sheriff Israel following the Parkland tragedy?

Yeah, like President Trump should have stopped speaking and said, “Don’t follow Pelosi’s “peaceful” protesters into the US Capital building.” /sarc

Did Rick Scott mention who shot Ashli Babbitt? It's bad enough for me that I live in the Illinois district that Adam Kitzinger is supposed to represent, but to have a supposed stalwart like Scott turn on the President is very bad.

Looks like the GOPe is following the trail blazed by FNC.
They forget that 74% of Republican voters want the party to be MORE like Trump. And that means we want FIGHTERS, not sissies.
To: ChicagoConservative27
Yes, apparently they do. This has already been exaggerated beyond what actually happened.
I am most dismayed with Trump and his inability to see this coming. He really wasn’t up for the battle against the Deep State though I appreciate him giving it his best.
Now he’ll forever be associated with “domestic terrorism” by Big Brother and the educational/media complex.
Dark times.

The President should announce the launch of the new Party on inauguration day. Rain on Biden’s parade and the treasonous GOP leadership that will be cheering on the fraudulent usurper.

Are these people getting paid by the number of shivs they stick into President Trump, where to the pay rate increases as the group count goes up?
