    Cool. Biden is currently President. So there won’t be any delays in calling in the National Guard.

    How many Ashli Babbitts will it take to put this fascist uprising down?

      If about 20 of them had been willing to die they could have busted in behind Ashli. Last go round she was the only one interested in taking a bullet for Trump.

        She probably had no idea getting shot was a possibility. It wasn’t until she got shot that her cohorts realized they were in deep shit.

          Bullshit. They were literally there to kill the sitting VP and anyone else who wouldn’t rig the election for Trump.

            You’re talking about the people who showed up with zip ties and a gallows. Ashli Babbitt showed up wearing an American Flag as a cape. She thought they were pulling a patriotic stunt. Anyone genuinely there intending to kill flew Trump’s flag, not the US flag.

    This man is a terrorist attacking America and so are his voters. They should be treated as such and put in jail.

      Ah yes, let’s combine is violent rhetoric with claims of jailing people for committing the crime of…falling for a conman and voting for him.

      That’s the spirit.

          I’ve seen plenty of people trying to justify it trying to convince themselves, and others, that this is not what he said. I’ve not seen a single person say it’s good that he would do that, but those people probably should be watched closely.

        It may have started as falling for a conman. But at a certain point, you have to ask yourself at what point is each individual responsible for his threats to democracy.

        You either are a willing and active participant or you are willfully ignorant.

        I’ve met people on both sides of that spectrum and I’ll tell you right now, they no longer can claim they fell to his con.

          Until someone actually breaks a law, suggesting that people should.be jailed for who they vote for is something I expect out of an idiotic authoritarians mouth, like trump.

            Ah, so you’re on the “willful ignorant” side.

            Trump has already committed several crimes. The classified documents case alone would be enough to put literally anyone else behind bars for several lifetimes. But Trump gets off with stealing literal boxes of the stuff and then selling it to the highest bidder. He got several people killed, but gets to get away with it because it was an “oFfIcIaL aCt”. Give me a fucking break.

            And that’s just one of his many crimes. Wake up and pay attention.

              Trump’s a fucking criminal twat, and at best you’re a rube if you are voting for him.

              I recognize this, but it’s not a crime to be stupid and fall for his shit.

                unfortunately no, but the fact that you can even push criminals through presidency is, rather funny.

                  Nah, it’s the way it should be; jailing a political opponent should absolutely not be a way for someone in power to stop people from voting for someone. It’s just sad that this is going to protect an actual criminal.

                I also don’t doubt that his voters would pull another Jan 6 if he lost. None of it should be taken lightly. These people are sociopaths and a danger to society.

                  I don’t either, and we should prepare for that and arrest and prosecute those criminals.

        They committed a crime. They should go to jail no matter how badly they go kicking and screaming. Who cares what Fox News says about it. Just get the National Guard ready. Why all the games to protect criminals?

          I was responding to someone saying we should jail people for voting for trump. That’s not a crime, just stupidity.

    It’s a GOOD THING we enact SWIFT Punishment last time a Terrorist sent a Mob of Terrorists to Attack the Capitol!
