Expect to see more Asst Dims saying the same in the coming weeks. This is all to help save Cheney in Wyoming!

[Williams]

His statement is absurd.

One-term homo lover RINO Riggleman? That one?

Typical fake news tactic, get a scumbag with an axe to grind to say something negative of Trump. Don’t buy their crap.

[Spok]

Saying so doesn’t make it true; it just makes them an idiot.

Former Republican Virginia Rep. Denver Riggleman : "I have always felt that the Republican party was not representative of the common man, the workers and the proletariat. They were not in tune with the beliefs of progressives, workers and the peasantry. I despaired of them ever adopting the principles of international proletarianism that I so cherish. So, reluctantly, I left the party and became independent, hoping to find a home in a party that was not a tool of the Wall Street imperialist warmongers. I found work advising the January 6th committee and found their ideology very compatible with mine. I look forward to prosecuting all the filthy swine that dared to raise their hands against the legitimately elected president and hope the last thing they see is the wall of the tiled cellar. Yes, these mad dogs must be destroyed, every last one of them!"

"And that is why I am no longer a Republican."

The stupid in riggleman can’t be fixed

“...people around Trump had an “awareness” of what they were doing when they repeated “propaganda” and “conspiracy theories” that preceded the riot and mainlined “insanity into people’s heads.”

But, the Media-Dem Party who hyped conspiracy theories for 5 years didn’t cause them to plot an impeachment, and even their attempted to goad one of their mentally defective followers into assassinating Trump. When all that failed they weren’t so convinced that Trump was “literally Hitler” that they were willing to illegal alter election laws and commit voter fraud just to get him out.

[Dave911]

“Former” being the key word.

“Riggleman told CNN’s “State of the Union” on Sunday...”

What this tells us: “State of the Union” is really hard up for guests willing to hype the coup narrative.

Riggleman’s entire premise is pathetic. A “coup” requires some sort of organized plan and leadership. On 1-6-2020, the only leaders were government agents provocateur scattered throughout the crowd. Was the government trying to overthrow itself?

[cyclotic]

Denver Riggleman lost all moral authority when he married two poofters.

[libertylover]

Uh, no.

How many weapons did the FBI and Capital Police find on protesters?

[TexasFreeper2009]

who came closer to overturning the government?

the jan 6th selfie takers?
or Hillary with her fake Russia story?

It’s not even close!

Hillary’s paid for 100% FAKE story about Russia collusion got a US President IMPEACHED!!

Think about that!

[ilgipper]

I’ve followed congressional politics very closely the past couple decades and never heard this person’s name before.

[TigersEye]

Another waste of O2 stands up and opens his piehole to show everyone what a front hole he is.

[BuchananBrigadeTrumpFan]

Another RINO admits he’s not a real Republican. Yawn.

[stratboy]

And the POS provides no proof. Just saying that Trump started an insurrection gets you a guest spot on CNN.
