Many of you are talking about resignation as a serious alternative. Hell will freeze over first. If Trump is the greatest at one thing, it’s his narcissism. To resign he’ll first have to believe he did something wrong, and that isn’t within him.
Completely agree, NFW he resigns. He'll pardon himself (you can bet he thinks he can and will sure as hell give it a shot), skip the inauguration, and continue on with the sore lose schtick (which his supporters swallow hook, line, and sinker) between court appearances. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZqUkk6fVuQ
This guy looks like he had borrowed Raquel Welch’s outfit from 100 million years BC.
Noticed how he used a spear as a flag pole? Genius. His IQ has to be at least 50.
I'm so tired of these degenerates marching in parades, wearing no shirts, waving colorful flags and pushing their beliefs on the rest of us. How am I going to explain it to my kids?
.... this guy actually called the FBI and turned himself in. Guess he is looking to cop a plea.
Maybe he was inspired by the sociopath in Hunters at the end and wants into jail to further radicalize the aryans?

The guy with the bull hat and spear is a prominently known QAnon jerkoff named Jake Angeli. He’s in the group that you want. Completely a delusional.

20 years after 9/11: “Never forget.”
3 days after the Capitol was attacked: “We need to move on.”
From Star Wars:
We must end the finger-pointing about who blew up what planet, or killed all of the Jedi, and move forward.
There can only be unity and healing when we all agree to completely forget/ignore all of the evil stuff we've done.

News outlets are publishing more videos, photos and testimonials from the pro-Trump riot on Capitol Hill. And it's becoming clear that as heinous as the attack looked in real time, on live TV and in our social feeds, it was even worse than we knew then. https://www.cnn.com/2021/01/09/media/re ... %3A45%3A02

We can’t paper over the assault on the Capitol with empty calls for ‘unity.’ Unless my party faces the truth of what happened and holds those responsible to account, we will never regain the public’s trust and earn the honor of leading the nation forward.

... me personally, I am not so concerned about him running for office again in 2024. His schtick will be pretty old by that time. I prefer impeachment because I think it is important to get some of the constitutional questions answered. Can a president pardon himself; can a president be impeached once he leaves office. I will roll the dice, but that is just me. I think it is long past time to test these so future House and Senate's know where they stand.
Plus he in no way has earned lifetime secret service support. Not from last week and also how he’s treated their lives and safety repeatedly in the past.

If he remains a possible candidate for 2024, he will still command attention & media coverage.
He will be on Elba, not St Helena.
If impeachment is overused, we'll become a Parliamentary system.
If there's a significant political backlash for impeaching Trump for **inciting an insurrection** then we're probably completely heck no matter what.
Just when the heck should an impeachment be triggered, I mean other than a BJ?
Rim job?

Thankfully it didn’t happen but it’s easy to see how it could’ve gone from simply what it was to 10-50 people being killed including legislators.
And thinking of the reporter who was on the ground having been thrown down: this is exactly why calling a mid 20s reporter girl “nasty” and making the idiotic, specious argument that they are public figures and deserve this is so
problematic but that our out of touch former service persons comments bigger than he thinks they are.
Otherwise we can all go around just fighting each other. Physically just fighting and taking of words have no value like this person and so many others believe.

Although you might quibble with the source it is worth your time to listen to Arnold's message - He has some first-hand experience both in terms of swordmaking and also growing up in post-war Austria.

He is describing some people I know....the craziest of which believes the military shouldn’t care about recruiting White Nationalist because you want people that love their country. Nothing wrong with it.

Quibble all you want about the source but this is fantastic. I saw what Arnold saw myself at pretty the same time and not too many miles from where he saw it. He's dead nuts on the money with, "They were in physical pain from the shrapnel in their bodies and in emotional pain from what they saw or did", and yes, it was clearly seen even by a 10-11-12 year old. Trump is a phukin disaster and has done incredible harm to this country, and how you people who are completely taken in by him, and impossible to reason with, is beyond my comprehension. He needs to be completely humiliated and dealt with harshly, yet there are those (way too many) who will tell you he's the greatest president this country has ever seen. I just don't get it. Either you're blind or I am but I'm sure not thinking it's me.

I might feel sorry for some people who voted for Trump, buying into his BS in 2016. However, if after 4 years they still showed up and were part of this, they deserve no sympathy.

Imagine 9/11, only no press conferences explaining what happened or what was ongoing, and a third of Congress expressing sympathy with Al Qaida and urging us to forget the attack in the name of unity.

If you have a spare 2 minutes and 18 seconds, I offer this hypothetical to highlight why Trump & company have corrupt intent and criminal liability for the devastation at the US Capitol.
Glenn Kirschner breaks down Trump's culpability and liability in the attacks on our Capital in terms of the Smiths and the Johnsons.

I couldn't get beyond the comparison to kristalnacht. Holocaust comparisons wear on me. Though, only because you posted this, I'll give it another try.

Unless enough Republicans can muster the cajones to carry through on impeachment the Trump crowd will continue to crow that he is still their president and should be the one sitting in the oval office after Jan. 20 and not Biden which would essentially render this country ungovernable. Time to step up Repubs and honor your oath of office.
