[tsubaki]

No tsubaki. Genuinely having been following politics over the xmas. Or now so it's all coming at me through here.

basically his speech was one long invitation for this to happen - and his calming down video was a shorter invitation for it to happen

 

[SerenityNigh]

Long as that is for Trump I can live with it...

i suspect it is for the elected officials, although you can't ignore the historical significance of an image like this

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.

Now the Democrats control both houses is impeachment just a matter of time? Or do you need more than 50.1%

Just seen two thirds..ah.

 

[Sassy Colombian]

And @zzr45 - that's quite enough the bad language and personal abuse.
Current Affairs forum or not, any more and one of both of you will be taking a holiday !!!

I apologise but there is so much abuse that I can take at this forum

Ha ha ha. What?

Well the flip side of people storming the building for Trump would be... not doing that.

The extreme right are traditionally a lot more violent than the extreme left, so for you, the flip side would just be a massive peaceful protest I'd guess.

So that's what I mean when I say you're the opposite of these people; as in you wouldn't be caught dead rioting the Capitol in favour of Trump.

 

[RAFUH]

This is unbelievable. How is it BLM protestors get tear-gassed for a President's photo-op outside a church several months ago, and today Trump supporters can run amok in the Capitol building, and US authorities just stand around and do nothing?

Please explain to this astounded foreigner, American GOT friends

As BLM was saying, justice in the US is not equally applied.
It is deeply seated racism and implicit bias

 

[SpongeBob brown shoes]

It's almost like the police are giving them enough time to leave, you'd think they would have been straight in to them once they got in the building

 

[Death]

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.

There was shots fired in blm and I still think it was a disgrace the government was trying to suppress it.

Imagine if there's a fair few people with COVID in the group today.

If? This was the biggest Trump super-spreader event yet.

 

[carolinablue232]

Finally somebody has turned up to sort this mess out

Ironic. I was just thinking “The night is darkest just before the dawn.” Feels like this has to be rock bottom, right?

 

[riddick]

Cool, so the police just let them in. Perfect.

Then stop making ridiculous comments until you catch yourself up.

This isn't a joke mate.

2/3 of Senate voting yes is required for removal.

Once again, 'murica is weird.

Removing him from office would require 67 senators.
