Pointing out that sometimes people don't take you seriously or literally. That was obviously my point that was missed...

2 time popular vote loser
2 times impeached.
candidate with the most votes ever cast against.
he is the world champion of being impeached.
I don't know why everyone is excited about this. The house still has a great divide in it. Only 10 republicans voted for it? That's 200 people that do not see eye to eye at all. That is what worries me most. What do they see that others aren't?
Telling me that their party is full of racists and bigots isn't a constructive answer either so let's refrain from that.
Extorting the president of Ukraine to influence the American election doesn't deserve impeachment?
WHY does half of the senate disagree w you, the democrats and 10 republicans that voted for it? Why does half the country still vote for Trump?
Huge disconnect.
I heard Trumps speech and I will defend it in this, he did not have a lynch mob to go after the Vice President. That to me is stretching it a bit too much.
He did rally the troops though.
was still a result of his call to march ON the capitol and to fight like hell.
Again, I do believe that he incited the crowd to go to the capitol but the actions that those frenzied people were in, is of a mob mentality. He started it for sure.
did anyone go after any politicians?
I love how I cite something just to make a point yet no one wants to agree with it.
This is why we have a divide in the country. People dismiss things right off the bat if they don't agree with it.
The message was that things should not be taken literally or choose to take something out of context. Trump never said to go hang someone or build a noose, but it happened and a person on here wants him responsible for that yet someone else pointed out the intelligence of the crowd. Trying to blame him for those actions I do not agree with. It was a stretch which was my point but took a tangent.
Anything that somewhat reflects like defending Trump never goes well on here. It is a country divided and I really wanted to try and grasp that concept further because it really is mind boggling as I don't think Trump is fit for office but 75million thought he is.
The crowd that Trump assembled built a gallows and stormed the building chanting hang Mike Pence after Trump incited the crowd to go after Mike Pence.
He brought that crowd together. He incited them. He sent them after Mike Pence. These are indisputable facts. That he didn't say the words "build a gallows & hang him" doesn't absolve him of assembling and inciting that crowd.
There's a Capitol police officer dead as a direct result of Trump's actions.

What do they see that we don't? Fear. Many know they are wrong. There are numerous reports that they were afraid these Trump Terrorists would go after them and their families:

Ironically, they are also fearful of a backlash from the same people they are afraid might kill them and their familes at the polling booths in 2022. If they go against Trump, Trump will not forget it and will likely support a primary challenge and encourage his terrorists to vote for the challenger.
Fear. They know the election wasn't stolen but out of fear of Trump and his supporters they went along with it. Fear. They know Trump incited a violent mob in an attempt to overthrow the certification of a duly elected new government, but they went along with it.
Fear. The party is not all made up of racists and bigots, though all racist and bigots support that party. Fear is what has dominated the majority of their decisions since 2017 and, unfortunately, it appears as if that will continue for a while. Hopefully Mitch McConnell does the right thing so we can at least be assured Trump cannot run again and can't pretend like he will either.
Fear.

That doesn't account for the people that do follow him?
It is dumbfounding to have that many people follow a party/person like this? Look I don't think illegals should have a drivers license but I'm not going sideways about it and taking up arms and going to the capitol.0 -

Should Charles Manson have gone to jail? He didn't kill anyone.
Sure, he incited his followers to go commit murder, but is it his fault people took him literally?

Then you throw in the really crazy qanon nuts who were likely nuts before Trump and that's thrown gasoline onto the fire.
But it is important to remember that those people are the minority. He never once got the majority of support of this country. His approval ratings were near all time lows since day 1. He is the first president since Hoover to lose the house, senate, and white house in one term.
Edit---I believe this is also how Hitler came into power. Thank GOD for Joe Biden.Post edited by The Juggler onwww.myspace.com0 -

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump's impeachment trial is likely to start after Joe Biden's inauguration, and the Republican leader, Mitch McConnell, is telling senators their decision on whether to convict the outgoing president over the Capitol riot will be a “vote of conscience.”

I've seen quite a few predictions that Impeachment won't have any significance soon, because every President is going to get Impeached by the opposition going forward...I don't think it happens, I think the majority of our leaders, even the shameless Trumpers, are eager to regain some decorum and some of the tradition which lends prestige to the roles they serve.Monkey Driven, Call this Living?0
