"Had he made a statement later on asking the demonstrators to stand down..."

The media and people like Cheney would have lied, and twisted the context of his statement, in order to form a committee to investigate January 6th anyway.

Wasn’t it her father and W who were involved in the WMD rationale?

More like a John McCain type Republican. Votes conservative plenty of times, but on certain hot button issues, she becomes an Assistant Democrat.

This is why I no longer believe what I read about this. The politicians, committee and even Freepers have changed the narratives. My father was there and his Pastor. I was here, reading the live thread. People here were angry, talking about insurrection and worse prior to the event. Freepers talked about breaking through the barriers and being in the group pushing to get in. Just because posts were deleted does not mean they never existed. You’re correct, Trump did send out a message (later) telling the people he loved them and to go home. Which they did, promptly. That could not all be Antifa, CIA, FBI. They would have stayed regardless, to make an impression. Conservatives should own their mistakes, take responsibility. To do otherwise is no different than leftie tactics of casting blame elsewhere.

Ahh, look at you, aren’t you cute. Anyone who criticizes Trump is a “Never-Trump troll”. The measure of a small mind is binary thinking.

Here’s the deal genius...I worship no man, and I don’t join cults. Trump was a great President. I voted for him twice. And on January 6th he got those people stirred up and then clammed up when they got boisterous and started breaking things. And yes, he bears some level of responsibility for what took place.

The election was not going to be overturned by Pence in a million years. Anyone who thinks that was even a remote possibility is a fool.

I'll see your Cheney and raise you a Jim Banks of Indiana...

Jan. 6 select committee takes shape with Kinzinger addition

“Nancy Pelosi, the speaker of the House, has more control and authority and responsibility over the leadership of the Capitol Police than anyone else in the United States Capitol,” Banks said.

The messages from allies including Fox News hosts Sean Hannity, Laura Ingraham and the former president’s son, Donald Trump Jr., urging Meadows to get Trump to intervene and stop the deadly violence at the Capitol on Jan. 6.

The Democrats have watched with pride, the deadly violence of their minions in cities all over the country.   What happened at the Capitol on Jan. 6 was not deadly violence, but for the depraved murder of Ashli Babbitt.

Damn. If we all were just as smart as you. By calling us cultists, you have outed yourself as just another condescending, holier-than-thou, limp-wrister masquerading as a lover of freedom. People like you would have called the followers of our Founding Fathers as cultists. You might as well face it...The country is going full-on Corporatist/Communist and some of us will choose dangerous freedom no matter which way the winds blow.

Re: 5 - “Real Raw News”?

How do you reconcile that site reporting Hillary Clinton being hanged, and her being on the Today Show over the weekend?

If you hold up “Real Raw News” as some sort of legitimate news source, please, get some help on what is real and what is not.

Good ‘friggin grief.

It’s called tribalism. And there are several FReepers that push it hard and attack anyone who posts anything that is even remotely considered to be critical of President Trump.

This is why i referred to it as a cult. In a cult the leader is never to be criticized, no matter what dumb thing he does.
