Trump has been removed from the Colorado ballot (but not really)

It wasn't only CHOP.

BLM protesters set Portland police station on fire as riot intensifies

Black Lives Matter militants set fire to a police station in Portland Sunday night during yet another night of violence in the Oregon city. The march on the Portland Police Bureau’s north pre…

Yeah, it's a big stretch to call that an insurrection.

Interesting how the cultists try and equate some police station being vandalized by a few yahoos to the organized attempt by the president to stop the verification of an election that he lost at the capitol of this great country. They’re ignoring months of his (illegal) attempts to stop him receiving the boot from office. Seems pretty dishonest. I wonder why they’re so hard to equate these two completely different things? Why are they trying to neuter the term insurrection and equate it to any protest?

Why are they trying so hard to defend a pathetic shell of a human being? Sounds real cultie and weird to me.

How so? An “insurrection,” by definition, is a “violent uprising against an authority or government.” The BLM riots fit every inch of that.

Not the "against" part. Protesting for government change is an attempt to work with the government.

It isn't about 'causing'. It is about 'insurrecting'.

Was Trump a narcissistic dumbass who riled up a crowd to an irresponsible degree and then handled the aftermath badly, or did Trump get together with insurrection commanders to go over the plan to insurrect?

The latter. There are many texts to this effect and message board posts after with those commanders (proud boys, 3%ers, Canon etc.) disseminate the message and are building up the magnitude of what they're going to accomplish on behalf of Trump.

Nice try but burning police stations is not working with the government.

No there aren't. This is like Fish claiming Trump told the mob to fight. It is stuff lefties have wished for so much that they now believe it actually happened.

Were you raised in a cult? Your sticking to this absurd line is culty AF. I know you're not too dumb to understand what happened so it's gotta be a cult thing.

ok, so show me these text messages you're so sure exist.

I'm talking about Trump telling the mob to fight. Trump's plan all along was to get the mob to come to Washington and send them over to the Capitol. It's the plan a 6th grade class president would draw up to get the third graders to do his bidding. Trump is a brilliant 6th-grader and his flock are really dumb third-graders.

I sure. I'll take that because Trump did tell the people listening to him to go there and that they had to fight or they wouldn't have a country anymore. So yeah. Just like what fishonjazz said. The truth.

I’m old enough to remember:

1. Trump folks telling us to “let the people decide” during his first impeachment. We were also told that he couldn’t be tried for anything criminal because he was president and for some reason that offered a shield against any past or present criming.

So we let the people decide and…

2. Trump folks told us to **** off and went to the courts to throw out primarily Biden votes from several swing states. The people decided but Trump folks thought that the courts should decide the outcome.

3. When the courts didn’t go Donald’s way, he attempted an insurrection at the nation’s capitol. He told his cult in December to come on Jan 6 and that it would “be wild.” Gee, what was happening on that day?

4. When his attempt to stop the certification of the election failed and he was impeached for a second time, Trump folks told us to leave him alone. After all, we had to heal and stuff. And he wasn’t president anymore. We had to move on. We were told that if he really committed crimes, that impeachment wasn’t necessary, and that if he had committed crimes either in the past or present, he needed to be tried and convicted in a court of law.

5. So now he’s being tried in a court of law but now Trump folks claim that he can’t be tried because he’s running a campaign. And now we need to heal and move on from Jan 6 so we should just forget about it and let him run for president. If he becomes president, he can pardon himself. If he doesn’t pardon himself, he can’t be convicted because of the presidential shield.

But what happens if he fails again to become president? Can we finally try and convict him? Or do we have to move on and heal and forget about all the criming? And what happens if he loses but attempts yet another insurrection?

The only consistent message we get from the cult these days is:
Orange man good, can do no wrong, can never be held accountable for anything.

And now we’re supposed to forget about all of our laws and norms all to pander to him and his depraved cult following.
