Hard to believe this now in America

[bgreene]

The Republican Party has officially labeled, and is trying to sell the Insurrection attempt at our Capitol as “ legitimate political discourse”

Impossible to imagine this in America ?
Violent mob, fighting and injuring over 100 of our police, smashing into our Capitol while making terroristic threats to hang our Vice President as “ legitimate.”

Yes, several leading Republicans strongly disagree and have called it what it was, but like bricks being removed one by one, the structure of American integrity is being dismantled by Trumpism.

This report carried by nearly all news sources and was declared by Republicans at their Salt Lake City meeting.

Hard to believe you've started 8 threads about Jan 6.


Who wants to go the over/under on bgreene's 9th thread on it?


I'm setting the bar at 5 days.

That would be a fools bet. If he would provide a link where I didn’t have to subscribe to a far left site to read it, I’d probably give it a look, but those sources are so prone to leap to ridiculously extreme conclusions and then report them as hard news, it’s pretty much guaranteed to be a waste of time.

Bricks being removed? Are you completely blind to the wrecking ball the Democrats are taking to the integrity of the Congress, political discourse in general, destructive policies, directly responsible for death, bankruptcy of many small businesses (lots of them minority owned), disgrace on the world stage, etc.

If you had any rational concern for the nation, you would have to be addressing those very real threats.

Oh and another lie “Fox news a complete sham”.

And another - Trump’s a liar for saying he wouldn’t have much time for golf as president, then discovering that he did. Able to conduct business on the golf course.

Scookie! In love with the word lie applied to the facts I provided ! Whoopie !
Even this little fact you deny:
1. Trump said “ Obama plays too much golf and as President he wouldn’t have time for golf because he’d be too busy working !
2. FACT …..Trump then spent MORE days of his Presidency than Obama on the golf course.

Now scook replies with “ yeh but, yeh but bla bla bla lies this lies that …….
Silly man .

Pipe - your poor attempt to avoid the subject is noted .

[scook]

YOU have the temerity to accuse ANYONE of avoiding the subject? We are now in the twilight zone.

[bgreene]

The FACT IS……the FACT IS ….can you read ? The FACT IS the Republican Party officially labeled the attack on our Capitol as a “ legitimate political discourse”

This is a disgusting demonstration of how trump has influenced many in the Republican Party.

And yes, even Mitch McConnell spoke up to say NO THATS JUST WRONG !!

[scook]

I can read quite well and also competently process what I read.

From reading even your link, it’s very clear that they did NOT do that - they labeled the peaceful protest as legitimate political discourse. Your “know it all, judge” nonsense is foolish and your extreme confirmation bias or some other serious problem is blinding you to the OBVIOUS truth of what the RNC said and did.

Scook, we all know that he's an elitist snob that thinks that only his opinion is correct. He's blind to anything and everything that doesn't fit into his little world.

My description is a little different than yours, but we are definitely on the same page, together with the other reasonable, thinking people.

Ok then Scook - provide statement from Republicans Salt Lake City meeting where they are specific in referencing ONLY the peaceful part of the Jan 6 event as the “ legitimate political discourse “

Because Republican Senator Mitch McConnell made it very clear it was NOT - it was a violent insurrection attempt.

No one is avoiding the subject. I was simply pointing out that you seem to enjoy starting threads over and over and over and over and over about the same topic. Why do you do that?

If you notice pipe my threads started are not all the same
1. The truth needs be repeated over trumpism lies
2. I choose to write the facts and truth

YOU choose to write whatever your Democrat masters tell you is the truth,
instead of actually using your brain, instead of actually researching the facts. Over and over you make statements that are proven wrong or are, at the very least, spun to make one thing look like something else entirely.

Destoyer aka “ White Trash “ of this web site stated that what happened at our Capitol on Jan 6 is a matter of opinion.
So I guess you mean the 100 + police injured some seriously by the violent trump mob may not have been real . Call the Capitol police and tell them that - since you’re so sure .
Make a name for yourself - and call them all liars too .

Of course it's a matter of opinion. You're just too dumb to understand that. As to calling the Capital Police.... why? Although it's not a crime to tell them what I think of them, why would I want to waste my time on a group of hired thugs?

You know it IS hard to believe this is now America - I was listening to a congressional candidate interviewed the other day and she was saying what Pelosi’s Capitol Police have been up to. As they patrol the representatives’ offices after hours, they are supposed to lock any office doors they find unlocked, I presume after clearing the office to be sure there are no burglars insider.

What they apparently have been doing, only in Republican offices, of course, is copying papers and photographing whiteboards, again, presumably to relay to their boss Pelosi. This is information from one source, though she seemed to be a very credible one - does anyone have further verification of this?

If this is accurate, it doesn’t peak well for the Capitol Police and confirms our knowledge that Pelosi is is indeed the lying, cheating, con-woman, traitor that we know her to be.
