Yikes. The people holding Trump responsible for any violence or Capital storming were the ones who were actually responsible..

Color me (not) shocked.




"Committee on House Administration's Subcommittee on Oversight Chairman Barry Loudermilk (GA-11) revealed that days before January 6, 2021, President Trump met with senior Pentagon leaders urging them to do their jobs to protect lives and property. The transcripts released show Trump gave senior Pentagon leadership directives to keep January 6 peaceful - including using the National Guard - which the Pentagon leaders ignored. This revelation directly contradicts the conclusions drawn in the flawed DoD IG report on January 6, 2021."

This is disgusting on so many levels. Yes optics are a concern, because we should NOT have to deploy national guard or military on our own fucking people you fucking daffodils, on our own fucking capitol. Because the president and a bunch of rednecks are petulant fucking children? It's a horrible optic that makes us look like fucking garbage, thanks Trump you fucknut. If you would have said "Everybody be cool" could have avoided it, but noooo, you decided to shit the bed.

He literally did that. See below. Also, there had been months of civil unrest because Trump had a massive lead on election night, the entire election froze in the middle of the night for the first time in history and it suddenly took months to count all the ballots behind closed doors and suddenly Biden made a bigger comeback than the Buffalo Bills when they were down 35-3 against the Oilers. Pennsylvania had 80,000 more votes than registered voters and legislators ignored it. It was a blatant steal of the election. This was the only election in American history (so far) where the results were not counted in hours, but months. And miraculously the guy that was way behind "won" by the smallest fractions which all happened to be crucial swing states.

Also, the request was not to "deploy the national guard on our citizens". It was to bring in extra security to keep Washington safe. And it was blatantly ignored because they wanted civil unrest. The uniparty clearly rigging an election is where the anger should be placed here.

This is what happens when a cult of personality forms. It’s sad because it tears apart relationships between families, friends etc.

It’s happened between me and a few family members. I wish Trump had just stayed out of politics but we’re here now. Unfortunately.

The opposite could and should be said about people with Trump Derangement Syndrome. More than 80,000 votes were counted and certified in Pennsylvania alone in 2020 than there were registered voters and everybody who would rather see Trump lose than learn the truth will just ignore it and be insulting to others.

And there’s really no point in trying to fight it sadly. To quote Keanu:

“I’m at the stage in life where I stay out of arguments. Even if you say 1+1=5, you’re right. Have fun."

Also most people can't respect someone's opposing opinion even if the person approaches the issue in good faith and a pursuit of finding the truth.

I agree with you. And the problem has only gotten worse over time unfortunately. In my opinion a lot of people have forgotten that it is ok to disagree with someone on politics and/or religion but still be friends and focus on the things you have in common with that person.

That being said, I understand that I can (and do) come across has having a harsh opinion of Trump & MAGA. I admit that the subject is a difficult one for me because of the falling out with my cousin and a close friend. But I have to constantly remind myself that it was their choices to end those relationships. Not mine. But it is difficult sometimes not to blame MAGA.
