A large number of Trumpists who thought Tues was "just an awesome time!" as they pranced around the capitol are now feeling the cold sweat as the long arm of the law creeps closer.

Those of them with 3 digit IQ's are finding lawyers. The handful who are actually savvy are now ratting out their friends for reduced sentences.

I look forward to seeing footage of the trials just to see the looks on their faces.

I'm still of the mind set of making sure that the charges are terrorism related, and instead of running them through the courts, we run them through a military tribunal.



For sure they're terrorists, you can argue that they're insurrectionists, but I think that would be harder to prove completely with the whole, I was just protesting not trying to over throw the government.

I have zero sympathy for Lindsey Graham. Dude had his head up Trump's arse for the entire 4 years of this presidency, and he went along with every bit of corrupt and treasonous behavior right up until two days ago. His old pal John McCain would be absolutely ashamed of him, and I hope his career is stained forever as a result of his complicity.

And that riot footage posted above is f'n scary. Those people are complete lunatics.

Man reading through these threads I almost want to request a user name change to Maritime QMJHL Scout, Maritime Hockey Scout, or Maritime CB Scout or something, just to ensure that there is no mistake that the Q is for QMJHL and not Qanon :|

I can only imagine what some of those people would've done if they had actually succeeded in getting ahold of some Members of Congress.
You know what really would have helped in that situation?

Guns.

Honestly, that's a fair request and I'm sure the mods would have no problem changing it.

I honestly want to sit down with a Trump supporter and have a conversation with them. I think it would be "interesting" to get their point of view and let them try to explain their reasoning.

It's just mind bottling.

Its not.. It is tiring and not worth your time at all. They are living in an alternate reality completely.

Maybe, but in fairness I was going for the cheap joke.

Hell this has been my username since 2004. I wouldn't want to change it, and would invoke the Office Space Principle:

The difference between the "far" left and the "far" right is that the face of the far left is The Squad, a bunch of junior politicians with a social media following and no real power, and the face of the far right is the ####ing president.

That's one of the differences but not even the most important or noteworthy.
