Current and retired NY City Fire Department personnel under investigation

by the FBI for attenting the Capital coup on Wednesday. People with no, an okay or dream jobs are going to lose them while Trump retires to Florida to be fluffed by fans for the rest of his days. These people may or may not go to jail too. I hate to have sympathy, but like any cult, people with vulnerabilities and ego needs will be recruited. And then they'll pay for it. That can't be lost. That at the end of his tenure the base who voted for him have nothing. No wall. No jobs. No healthcare. And the whole world is more dangerous because the malevolent see how vulnerable democracies are now. The republicans took everything away from poor, rural, southern and former middle class people. Trump promised to give it back. What a scam. And now the base is following the army of grifters who have surrounded grifter Trump. That is no way to find meaning. They'll be angry for the rest of their lives. And others will try to exploit them.
