What happened in America yesterday was no different to 1916 in Ireland in my view, the self-styled MAGA American Patriots rose up and marched on DC and overran Capitol Buildings, they did it on the back of their own supposed disenfranchisement by the extreme ultra far left in America. In thier eyes the real Coup was in the fraudulent rigged election this was an attempted counter-coup, MAGA fanatics are by and large peaceful and tolerant of the opposing viewpoint and I actually have my doubt of how many of them were MAGA as alot have been identified as Antifa wearing MAGA clothing.

Lets imagine Mike Pence blocked Bidens confirmation or that the Supreme Court over-ruled the election in Trump's favour, yesterday would have been a blood bath by Antifa and the Capitol building would have been a smoking burnt-out wreck. First thing that crossed my head was why aren't the protestors torching the place! With that much anger against Congress and the Democrats it would have been the expected type of anarchy.

Can you show evidence for this claim please?

Trump said the only way he could lose the election is if there was fraud. That was always going to be his go to. His followers cannot accept that the man they hail as a hero is in fact a self-centred mad man. They will never accept that because it means they would have to look at themselves for believing in him.

Have many staunch supporters of Trump publicly called him out for what happened yesterday? Genuinely curious.

Answered my own question....

Edit* On Thursday, Jerome Marcus, a lawyer who worked on behalf of the Trump campaign in a lawsuit involving Pennsylvania's election, asked to withdraw as an attorney on the case.

In a letter to the judge, Marcus wrote, “the client [Trump] has used the lawyer’s services to perpetrate a crime and the client insists upon taking action that the lawyer considers repugnant and with which the lawyer has a fundamental disagreement.”

Wonder what those on the front lines of the capitol take over feel like. They charged in for what they believed in (as crazy as their beliefs are) and are now being referred to as enemy plants. Must be pretty demoralising.

I think you got that wrong honestly; they all know that they did not behave that way so clearly it had to be antifa plants that did all the bad stuff. I mean we're talking about supporters who can't quote a single factual proof of the steal (but got plenty of hearsay and conspiracy theories to peddle as "proof" which when hold up to the light turns out false and they pull out another one) and refuse to accept anything that proves it wrong and thinks chanting "stop the count" in one state and "continue the count" in another state is perfectly normal.

I put on fox news radio this morning through alexa.
They are still spining about the election been stolen.
also a some of them were saying that Antifa were had probably infiltrated the protest and had caused the trouble.

It is the likes of this that are adding to the the flames of the usa.
I have a feeling this is going to get worse rather than better.

I would worry as to what the mad trump will do in the next 2 weeks , one thing for sure he will do everything he can to make it impossible for Biden.
I read that he has made changes to envoirmental rules in the past couple of days, this will get worse.

The dumbass James Conner from Republicans Abroad attempted to claim it was an Antifa protest when on with PBH this morning, and was given short thrift for his bull****. It's questionable if he should have been on in the first place though.

the *antifa infiltrated trump supporters* conspiracy theories would be the funniest thing ever if it wasnt proving so damn effective among trump supporters

highlights for me

The photo of the buffolo skin wearing guy that is cropped specifically to hide him holding a Q Anon poster and then titling it as him being part of a BLM march

The zooming in on a tattoo on one guys hand claiming it's the hammer and sickle when its actually a logo from a video game (dishonoured)

A guys face being matched to a photo from a antifa website indicating he is antifa, leaving out the photo is from a page listing members of a neo nazi movement.

claims that one guy is showing off his trump hat too much so he's obviously not a real trumper

And the best, some on twitter who drew a ms paint outline of a guy in a black hoodie and saying he is obviously antifa without any reason and over another one and said they couldnt be a trump supporter as they had dreadlocks and looked homeless

yep. it all started with Newt. he has a LOT to answer for.

Gingrich, Roger Stone, Roger Ailes, Rush Limbaugh.. those four guys as much as anyone are the reason Trump is in the White House thanks to their decades of lie peddling and conspiracy bs.

What an absolute **** show. How could they get in. If it was al Qaeda would they be there for a couple of hours.

What a complete embarrassment for such a strong country.

I don't know, US police have a bit of a tendency for being a little more lax when it comes to Y'All Qaeda.

Remember when we all taught Bush was the most polarized

Yeah I was thinking when did the Republicans go full batsxxt and I was thinking the arrival of Palin on the scene with her "I can see Russia from where I live so I am qualified for Foreign Policy" nonsense and after years of her came the Tea Party movement which sowed the seeds for Trump and his supporters as when the tea party broke down these people needed something to grab on to and along came Trump as their saviour, who wasn't just another career politician, promising to get things done as he lived in the real world like them
