January 6th insurrection thread...

I guess unless you were the VP or Speaker or a woman of color, or a Capital police it was just another ordinary Capital tour.

Just so we’re clear, several on screen hosts at Fox News,

the station that complains that “the media” is in cahoots with Democrats,

were on a texting basis with Mark Meadows and urged the

President to take specific actions on Jan 6.

This doesn’t change my view of 1/6, but I do think this is a fun point. In addition to the obvious hypocrisy pointed out here, it also pours some serious cold water on any takes Hannity, Ingraham, Kilmeade and Don Jr. have had about 1/6 being a false flag or a simple peaceful protest. If they thought it was nothing, what would Trump making a strong public statement solve? The supposed plants wouldn’t care, and if nobody was violent there would be no violence to stop.

Because they knew the left would drive this narrative.

This isn't hard and very consistent with the mindset it wasn't a big deal (although people who broke laws should be prosecuted) and the left is hyperventilating for political power.
 
Compare how the left treated the summer of riots to the jan 6 pepper spray insurrection and you can see why the right rolls their eyes at all the pearl clutching

“This is killing his legacy” and “this is out of control” are very normal things people privately text the President’s chief of staff when they don’t think it’s a big deal.

Because the left owns popular culture and majority of MSM.

This isn't hard.

They predicted exactly what would happen despite the fact that this wasn't an insurrection.

This is basically what I was getting at in my last post. I think calling this an organized tactical strike on our Democracy is nonsense, and probably is contributing to the Right’s harsh turn on messaging. If we had called it what it was, which is a bunch of idiots doing illegal things rather than roping the President into it and claiming he directly caused the ruckus, perhaps we’d be in a better place.

It's something I've never been able to understand. There were more legitimate avenues for political opponents to attack Trump than any other President. More blatant lies, controversial statements, and drama for the media to report on than any other President. Why did both groups feel the need to make more up and exaggerate what he did? It cost them credibility and convinced a lot of people that the bad stuff that was actually true wasn't real.

Can 57 or goldy explain to me in their own words how the "shocking" texts prove some sort of coordinated conspiracy of a coup?

Imagine being mentally incapable of explaining your argument in your own words.

It has to be demoralizing to know that you cannot formulate an opinion without the TV box telling you what it is
 
Who are you talking to there? Lol

It’s like you think you’re breaking the 4th wall in the office or something

I really don’t know how often or how long it will take for you to understand I don’t March to your demands or desires

You think it’s nothing. You’d rather talk about other stuff. I don’t find it worth my time to engage with you in any real way on things cause you’re a fraud. It ain’t hard to understand
 
I'm asking you, in your own words, to explain what the text messages reveal and how it they are proof of a coordinated insurrection attempt.

I'm aware you can't do this... but the question is reasonable considering you ran to the board to post the shocking text messages!
