The hardcore will be out on the 17th, many of them anyway, they are like his abused girlfriend they will do anything to earn his praise and show loyalty.
Trump's cult is out of control. Whirly's sig image has never been more appropriate, sadly.
Hope it doesn't get too bloody this weekend and other days surrounding the inauguration.
And yes, Trump absolutely needed to be impeached again and will hopefully be barred from ever running for public office again. He's an egomaniacal monster.
They retweeted an Ali Alexander tweet, he's one of the major guys behind 'Stop the Steal". Who apparently is now (or was) in hiding for his role in the Capitol riot.
I'm torn there, I don't think they will, but now it seems that McConnell has blocked and pushed the trial until after Trump leaves office. So if Trump is convicted, he can't be removed as he's already gone, he'd just lose the ability to run for office again and all the perks an ex-POTUS gets. So that leads me to believe the Republicans might be planning for just that. Honestly don't know.
He's out of office either way, they want to make sure the door hits him on the way out, or change the locks so he can't come back in.

The 'moment' that is Trump's presidential career is a flash of a collection of experiences which preceded him and will so succeed. US political discourse will talk about the Trump-voter for a long time, though they might well use different names. It's all itself a manifestation of the well established America First label which incorporated Gore Vidal long before Steve Bannon.
The QAnon Shaman (via his lawyer) is arguing that he isn’t guilty because he was invited into the Capitol directly by Trump and was just following Trump’s orders, whom he loves and is devoted too.
Also claimed that Trump now has an obligation to pardon him and other people like him, because they were just following orders.
It’s like he’s arguing that words matter, especially when they come from someone like the POTUS.
El-Oh-El, indeed. They give Trump everything, "I would die for that man!", and he just discards them without a second thought whenever it's convenient for him. Yet they keep coming back to him.
Peter Stager from Arkansas is the Trumper who was beating Officer Michael Fanone with the American flag, he was later interviewed where he claimed every cop in the Capital was a "treasonous traitor" and deserves "death".
I'm actually physically sick reading this. Politics are cool and all, we need them, but man... these people let politics run their LIVES. Because someone they didn't want to lose lost? What a bunch of ****ing sissies... Grow up and learn to stop being a sore loser.
