Donald Trump is a dangerous yahoo who may well destroy what is left of the USA's constitutional government before he is finished. I do not in any way defend him.
But there is something almost comically hypocritical about the establishment's shocked reaction to the January 2021 failed putsch which he is accused of inciting.
Once again I must point out that the same liberal elite types happily condone a much worse putsch, one which succeeded and has helped to drag Europe into its worst war for more than 70 years.
Mr. Trump is alleged to have sought to prevent the democratic outcome of the 2020 Presidential election. If he and his allies did so, this was a disgraceful thing. If you believe that power in free societies is decided by votes, then you cannot support such a thing. Your own politics cease to matter. It goes to the very root of law and power.
So why did major Western nations accept without protest the violent, lawless overthrow of Ukraine's elected President Viktor Yanukovych in February 2014? This shameful event, achieved by a yelling mob, was led by people who make Mr. Trump's supporters look like Greenpeace and who openly threatened violence if they did not get their way...

Mr. Hitchens tells you the story of the Ukranazi Coup in Ukraine in 2014.
The one that US State Department official Victoria Nuland who visited Niger today was actively involved in supporting back then.
The insurrection-coup in Ukraine in 2014 led to Russia annexing Crimea and the fighting in eastern Ukraine that led to Russia's "invasion" of Ukraine in 2022.
Uhhh, because they planned supported and abetted it?
Peter, Peter, Peter... it’s not the number votes, it’s the number of real live voters that keep a society free.
Peter want to hear a joke? Ready? 2020, Joe Biden never left his basement to campaign for President but got 81 million votes! 🧐
I would like to ask Hitchens if Europe has dropbox and unsolicited mail-in ballot elections. No voter ID involved, just politicians mailing out ballots “where they need to go”
If Don T. Orchestrated a pustsch. It damn well would
Have been successful..
With only a few
Mush mouth
Leftists hanging from lampoles. Or scurrying down
Capital sewers like the rats
They are...
Heads on pikes. To enthuse
The others !!!!
Now THAT would be a Insurrection
....
Pretty clearly an awful lot of native Ukrainians thought he was illegitimate enough to depose him. No amount of "western interference" would create that sentiment. He was pretty clearly selling out Ukraine to Putin, and they didn't like it. Any more than Americans like what JoeBama is doing to us.
This is the guy that thinks Mother Teresa of Calcutta was a really terrible person.
Freegards
Maybe they thought he was illegitimate just because they didn’t vote for him. Western propaganda did do a lot to spread the idea that his election was fraudulent.
The other half of the country may have thought that his opponent wanted to sell the country out to the West. We don’t have clean hands and shouldn’t have gotten involved.
A putsch. A bunch of people wandering around taking selfies is a putsch?
An insurrection without weapons. First time ever.
The whole J6 thing is a farce, but a dangerous one. The First Amendment is being cancelled without the constitutional procedure of repeal. Just like that, thrown in the trash can.
that was his brother, Christopher.
A putsch. A bunch of people wandering around taking selfies is a putsch?

The hyperbole over the January 6 protest, that had some suspicious riot behavior is disgusting.
Yet the people that believe the propagandists just keep on marching to their retarded drummers.
Hitchens is an idiot.
The demonstrations started as a result of the massive corruption within the Yanukovych government, his going back on his word to allow more economic ties with the EU, AND his jailing of political opponents.
The violence was on the part of the government when Yanukovych sent the secret police (bolstered by Russian FSB and Spetsnaz) out to attack the protesters and put down the demonstrations.
There aren't enough words in the English language to describe how much I hate this wanker. As far as I'm concerned he can take his atheistic arse back across the pond.
No, that was.another guy who died. I can’t remember his name, but he really hated Christians.
Christopher, not Peter.
Was all that you talk about with the government side shooting back and killing the opponents a description of a real incident or a false flag in the genre of January 6th.
