    Trump seems to be the one paying the price for actions of others, not sure what standing that has in a court of law. If the speech on the day was so inciteful, surely it would have been called out for that at the time.

    Words like '' fight'' and '' strength '' are used in politics daily. Telling people to go down there and '' cheer'' on those fighting for their cause in the capitol, is a long way from

    '' go down there, hunt down Pence, hang him, and then kill the speaker of the house''

    it's a far stretch from '' cheer on '' to what happened.

    Where were you last week? It was called out as he was speaking.

    On the other hand he also said to fight...


    Our brightest days are before us, our greatest achievements still wait. I think one of our great achievements will be election security because nobody, until I came along, had any idea how corrupt our elections were. And again, most people would stand there at 9:00 in the evening and say, ‘I want to thank you very much,’ and they go off to some other life, but I said, ‘Something’s wrong here. Something’s really wrong. Can’t have happened.’ And we fight. We fight like Hell and if you don’t fight like Hell, you’re not going to have a country any more.

    So we’re going to, we’re going to walk down Pennsylvania Avenue, I love Pennsylvania Avenue, and we’re going to the Capitol and we’re going to try and give … The Democrats are hopeless. They’re never voting for anything, not even one vote. But we’re going to try and give our Republicans, the weak ones, because the strong ones don’t need any of our help, we’re going to try and give them the kind of pride and boldness that they need to take back our country.

    "Clinton carefully avoided inserting herself into the deliberations over how the party should move forward in the Trump era. But ahead of the vote, she published a video urging Democrats to “keep fighting”. “I’ll be right there with you every step of the way,” she said."

    Politicians never use "fight" or "fighting" as a metaphor?

    You are really reaching aren't you?

    He’s best ignored. He’s taking the piss at this stage.

    Every single thing he raised in that post has already been addressed and he’s just ignoring it.

    "You will have an illegitimate president, that’s what you’ll have. And we can’t let that happen."

    "To use a favorite term that all of you people really came up with, we will stop the steal."

    "...they want to steal the election. The radical left knows exactly what they’re doing. They’re ruthless and it’s time that somebody did something about it."

    "Make no mistake, this election stolen from you, from me and from the country."

    "Our country has had enough. We will not take it anymore and that’s what this is all about."


    You know exactly what he's saying here and what he was inciting them to do. To pretend otherwise is very dishonest.

    It was? What are you on about? It was a disgraceful speech. When you add Don Jr whipping the crowd into a frenzy and Rudy calling for "trial by combat", it was absolutely off the charts.

    Hope everyone that is feeling as traumatized as she looks gets the help they need, the worse part seems to be were even though she's in a secure room she's still feeling unsafe because of certain GOP members that were there and also some Capitol police.. Crazy!!!

    He seems like the worst of all.

    When the Congressional leader for the Republican party can call for the censure of Trump but not impeachment you have to wonder where the representatives will fall.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,536 ✭✭✭✭namloc1980


    Republicans objections amount to a pile of whataboutery.

    Do the Republicans not see that all they are doing is giving the Democrats all the ammunition they need to get their base to turn out in 2022?

    Don't know why any of you bother responding to Donnie's clapping seals tbh

    Waste of time and effort

    Yeah Rudy didn't mince his words. Those three words are entirely reflective of the machinations of the renegade group of republicans which includes the president.

    Half expected a more contrite tone but basically went straight on the offensive. Last Wednesday she was also aggressive in tone.

    Dangerous and one to watch.

    Why was there a round of applause just there? Republican voting to impeach?

    Mitch rumored to support impeachment, yet it's confirmed he will not agree to convene an emergency session of the Senate.

    The biggest complaint from these idiots is the process 'oh we havent had any witnesses testify' - YOU ARE THE WITNESSES. YOU WERE THERE.

    Let it take up Biden's time, not his. He is ruthless.

    Oh Jim "Gym" Jordan is very real. He was a college wrestling coach. He knew that dozens of his wrestlers were being sexually abused and did nothing about it.

    Mitch doesn’t realise it yet but it gives the Democrats the chance to stretch this out longer than they should be. It’s likely they’ll let Biden’s cabinet be approved before bringing the trial to the Senate now.
