72% of Americans believe the people involved in the attack on the Capitol were “threatening democracy” and most believe Trump is responsible. I think you’re underestimating how much people want to see accountability.

Do do you think Jim knows what infinitely means? Should he be allowed to do a job that requires math?

He obviously has a job that requires math skills, but not critical thinking.
This is demonstrated by his claims that people are moving from blue states to red states because they are less “wasteful”
If that were true Louisiana and the rest of the ten lowest rated states, all red, would be attracting a lot more people, most Americans want a centrist political agenda not the fascism Jim supports.
But he doesn’t really like Trump and he’s for gay something, as long as they aren’t women politicians.

trump wanted to undo the free election. that’s very very bad, but thank god it never came
close to happening. what you can’t explain, is why it wasn’t equally bad when elected democrats attempted to do the same thing after the 2016 election, when they asked electors not to vote for him and then challenged he results of a few states with zero basis to do so.

please explain why it was bad when trump did it, but no biggie when your side did it.

trump
told those idiots to march “peacefully and patriotically” to the capital, and he was impeached. and you have been clutching your pearls ever since.

maxine waters told
liberals to hound and harass those in trumps cabinet until they knew “they aren’t welcome anywhere, anytime”, and you could care less.

countless democrats expressed explicit support for the 2020 riots and that’s no big deal.

But conservatives stick their heads in the sand and excuse it away . Most won’t even admit it trump wanted to undo the free election. that’s very very bad, but thank god it never came
close to happening. embraced lies over Truth trump wanted to undo the free election. that’s very very bad,

but thank god it never happened that’s a BS answer


Our you and others just repost false equivalences claiming their the same ! yelling hypocrisy of the left while being completely dishonest and unwilling separate apples from oranges because you agree with the oranges but are afraid to admit it so you dance around using Trumps logic there’s very good people on both sides

trump didn’t get as far as taking the clothes off. it was never, ever going to happen. shame on him for even thinking about it, but it showed that our system works. trump couldn’t do it, and obviously the morons who stormed the capital had
no chance of accomplishing anything.

some democrats tried to undo the 2016 election, and you didn’t give a damn. why?

If voters don’t believe that an attempt to overthrow the republic by the sitting president is more important than inflation, then maybe they neither want nor deserve the republic.

Yes, it does. Because none of those other things matter if you lose the Constitution.

but why didn’t any of you care, when after the 2016 election, democrats also tried to subvert the results of. free and fair election? many several
democrats asked the electors but to cast their votes for trump, and they objected to the electors in several states casting their votes for trump.

no one here cared. Why is that?

Answer - it’s ok to all of you, when democrats fight dirty. you only care when republicans do it.

When trump makes baseless claims that the 2020 election wasn’t fair, that’s bad because he’s undermining faith in the system. when stacey abrams does the same
thing, it’s not worth mentioning, because shut up.
