(3,074 posts)I'm glad I saw it. Trump obviously instigated the crowd.
And that crowd is a very delusional and scary group of people. It was like a horror movie.

(22,656 posts)It is a very good description. I'd say that you hit the nail on the head.

(22,800 posts)insurrection. It is very difficult to watch at times, and it brings home the fact that this was a very large mob of people, many of them who were determined to overturn the election by violently forcing their way into the Capitol and wreaking violence upon the Congress men and women who were gathered there to finalize the election. The violence was targeted and purposeful, and one can't help but feel the courage, fear, and pain the small group of unarmed Capitol Police must have felt in the face of overwhelming numbers and unrelenting violence. Donald Trump should pay for this treasonous act agains our country. He methodically and deliberately invited thousands of supporters to a series of emotional speeches that convinced them the election had been stolen and then directed them to storm the Capitol and force Democrats and reluctant Republicans to overturn the election results.

(22,656 posts)But I believe they can be. Every one has access to them and their results are infinite. But I get your point.

the Capitol cops had been armed, or the National Guard had actually arrived on time, it could very well have been a debacle. Alternatively, if the cops hadn't managed to delay the mob as long as they did, who knows what could have happened to the elected politicians and officials inside the capitol. I think it's a miracle it ended with so few casualties considering the numbers involved and the violence that occurred.

(205,320 posts)As tragic and frightening as this horror show was, considering the intentions of that rabid crowd, if they had managed to do what they actually came for, it could have been so, so much worse.

(2,809 posts)It wouldn't surprise me one bit if some of the worst behaved, easily provoked losers from my high school days were right there. Dunning/Kruger poster children all.
What's worse is the few so dedicated to this farce of "leadership" they're already displaying their "Trump 2024" flags.
I just keep asking myself the same question:
What TF do they really think they're accomplishing?
