‘President Trump’s supporters attempted a coup’: Pa. Gov. Tom Wolf on U.S. Capitol attack
Pennlive ^ | 6 January A.D. 2021 | Teresa Bonner

Posted on 01/06/2021 3:36:21 PM PST by lightman

Gov. Tom Wolf issued this statement Wednesday afternoon condemning the violence in Washington, D.C.:

“Today, President Trump’s supporters attempted a coup. This was the direct result of a deliberate disinformation campaign by Republicans from the President down to legislators in Pennsylvania. They lied about the results of the election. They lied about voter fraud. They lied about my administration and other governors. They lied about the administration of the election here in Pennsylvania and across the country. On November 3, we had a remarkably well-run election despite historic challenges.

“Eight of the nine Republican members of Congress from Pennsylvania lied about our election in an attempt to pledge fealty to President Trump.

“Republican legislators enabled this every step of the way. They’ve held show trials to gin up President Trump’s supporters. They’ve intentionally spread disinformation.

“The actions of Republicans in Pennsylvania and across the country have led to violence. It is their fault. There should be no equivocation.

“It is past time for Republicans to stop lying and tell their supporters the truth. President Trump lost. The election was fair. President Trump received fewer votes. That’s it.

“We have had a peaceful transfer of power every election cycle in our nation’s history but because of the actions of Republicans, we can no longer say that. I am disgusted but I will keep fighting to make our democracy stronger.”

These liftards show they are morons. They can’t use an original thought and only mouth the words we use against them. The fact is, Tom Wolf helped steal the election which was a coup against President Trump.

Trust me if we were going to attempt a coup it wouldn’t be the pathetic show that happened today. Where does this moron think the 43,000,000 guns are located.

Coup? How many arrests did he as governor of Pennsylvania direct for Communist riots in the streets under the pretense of social justice?

December 16, 1773 the Boston Tea Party was held and no women were shot in the neck or anywhere else.

343 chests of Tea were thrown into the harbor by Patriots disguised as Mohawk Indians.

I am going to go ahead and call BS. clearly he is confused with Antifa trying something,, and not very successfully. If the trump supporters would have attempted a coup, there would have been a shit load more guns there and organization. If Biden hadn’t read something so quickly I would have thought maybe he didn’t know about it, but here we go with the Trump supporters did it from the media routine along with the brian washed crowd on social media,, they should know by now that it is pretty much their call sign,, these people that remain in those organization are idiots, wow. I actually had someone post to me today that religion had nothing to do with what happened today,,, it made me sad

What I want to say concerning this POS would get me banned.

It will. I was banned shortly after the election for a week for using what I call hyperbole. There is no free speech on Free Republic. I don't care if I am banned any longer. Too many wusses around here.

In a revolutionary environment, I think this is called escalation. Bad move pinhead.
