Someone's been shot mate, so maybe not eh?
Hahaha you have to laugh.
This is Trump's worst nightmare when you think in terms of his long term chances of running again.
Any Republican with half a brain is disassociating themselves rapidly with him now.

Maybe if it were a protest. But it's somewhere between sedition and a coup so you know maybe suppressing it is the thing to do.

This is not a protest, this is a terrorist act on our democracy. Free speech doesn't justify the what Trump supporter have done today in Washington DC

It's just a sad, sad day. You cannot have an egomaniac with no regard for the power of his inane ramblings in a position of influence and authority.
I hate that my children have to see this and I hate what it has done to our national dialogue.
To the rest of the world please know that this is not representative of the people of the United States.

someone who Trump repeatedly claimed supported al-Qaeda and hated jews, lets not forget
No fn clue. Was made multiple times today, 1 of the 3 branches of the federal government of America was ENTIRELY in that building today. No resistance at all from the people meant to be protecting them at all.
I recommend you take 15 mins to get up to speed including shots have been fired inside the Capital and a woman is in critical condition.

he basically incited this in a rally earlier and kept quite when the events unfolded.
National guard were not deployed because they needed his authority
Not from the US, however on one side there'll have been no desire to initially militarise the process to ensure an open democracy: visible, transparent etc.
Hence why not like the BLM protests, but clearly the balance was nowhere near struck and the lack of preparation and a QRF to intervene is shambolic.
Policing shouldn't be political - end of - but let's be honest it can be or is, especially at the senior ranks and in the US, so image would have been important.
Glad it is being done. Not sure she is the one I'd prefer to draw up the articles.
Screw thr 25th Amendment talk. Impeach him and make the GOP vote.
