WSJ Report: Biden out of it from day one

Amazing how Trump has flipped the whole political tables

Libs are now the pearl clutching anti working man war mongering pearl clutchers.

GOP is the cool growth party.

Obama’s mentor Bill Ayers in whose living room Obama launched his political career bombed the Capitol and Pentagon. Never even went to prison and was a professor at U Chicago. Libs are much more violent and dangerous than MAGA.

I have noticed that they've stopped coming out with repeated, dire warnings of how the greatest security threat to the US is "right wing extremists."

Can you imagine how much communist Bill Ayers and his protege’ Obama must hate freedom lover, property rights/gun rights lover Donald J Trump? He uses their own tactics against them and has blown up 30 years of their evil efforts. Lib collectivists will tolerate moving forward slowly like under the Bushes of the world but when they are shoved backwards by the Reagan’s or Trumps of the world .. they lose control and get wild eyed evil

First, the amount of pearl-clutching about the supposed "insurrection" on 1/6/21 is ridiculous. If the most powerful military the world has ever seen was in danger of being defeated by a few hundred idiots, then our military needs more resources and training. This was a riot perpetrated by some morons. Our government was not in danger of being overthrown, everyone knows that and it's why J6 was not a big factor in many people's votes this year.

Second, it is interesting that when a riot endangers the very important people on Capitol Hill, it suddenly becomes a bad, terrifying thing. But when riots happened across our cities all throughout the summer of 2020, destroying property and endangering lives every night, it was all ok because it only affected the unwashed little people.

People criticizing J6 would have more credibility if they also criticized the summer 2020 riots happening every night. Riots are bad, period. There are not good riots and bad riots.



First of all, NOBODY is defending the 2020 arsonists and looters. They were separate from the BLM marchers/protesters. I know that is inconvenient for you, but it is the truth. You are making sweeping generalizations about nation-wide unrest and comparing it to a very specific event.

It is unfathomable to me that you can watch the footage of officers being beaten with flag poles and crushed in doors, the gallows and the calls to hang Pence…and you can actually say you don’t care, no big deal. Notice how republicans have really tamped down their “party of Blue Lives Matter” BS since then? Yet another catch phrase Trump has robbed them of, along with party of family values, party of small government.


Not sure you read my post. I didn't say I didn't care about J6. I said it was a riot perpetrated by idiots. I also said riots are bad. J6 was bad.

What I actually said was 2 things:
- our government was not going to be overthrown on J6, and everyone knows that
- the riots in summer 2020 were bad too, and I find it interesting that those wailing about J6 have nothing to say about the summer 2020 riots


DP
- you don’t know that, Pence might have caved, and was afraid to get in the car, and it’s irrelevant anyway
- because you’re trying to “whataboutism” and no one is defending any criminal activity anyway, you’re just looking for a fight



There has not been even 1% of the virtual ink on this board spilled over the 2020 riots as there has been about J6. Are people defending the 2020 riots? Possibly not but nobody seems very bothered by them either.


Lots of people remain bothered by them and they continue to influence political thinking. However, the left discusses politics in the retrospective "J6 was bad, scotus shouldn't have overturned Roe" while the right is future focused "let's fix the economy, let's secure the border." So from a right-wing worldview, ruminating over and over about something that occurred over 4 years ago seems bourgeois and indulgent.


OMG, ruminating over the fact that the former POTUS who incited and abetted an attempt to overturn a fair election to keep himself in power and has now been re-elected by an idiotic segment of our populous is bourgeois and indulgent. That is a new low in attempts to deflect on J6. I would LOL but it's just so pathetic and awful.


Aaand he is planning to pardon them.

Nobody is discussing the looters/arsonists because there is nothing to discuss. Thousands upom thousands participated in peaceful protest. But there were several hundred that were arrested for burglary or looting. Nobody talked about pardoning them. Nobody claimed they were just tourists. Nobody is telling you to get over it. Justice was served and we can move on.

That said, only 3.7% of the events resulted in property damage, so your blanket statements about the protesters are inaccurate.



Trump and gop planned to over throw the US government ie coup Jan 6 there is no other reality I don’t care what percentage you are talking about
The coup never stopped and now they won the US is lost forever and god help us bec hell is coming

My freedoms crowd are grade a idiots and my friends who think in four years we can elect someone else also stupid


All this ranting about Jan 6 being a serious coup attempt isn’t any more credible now than it was 4 yrs ago. Save your breath—nobody believes that was a serious coup attempt.


Dp. Remember the first attack on the world trade center didn't succeed but the second one did? J6 was the first attempt and if he had lost than they would have succeeded the second time.

Yes, we were lied to.


Are you familiar with Reagan's 2nd term. Trump also has dementia.


DP. I was not alive yet but yes I am aware of Reagan's second term. I despise Trump. But that doesn't mean it was in any way acceptable for the Democrats to play Weekend at Bernie's and gaslight all of us when it became too difficult to hide the truth. Don't just point the finger at the other team like that makes this all okay.

3 days before he left office in January 1989, Reagan did a sit down interview with Tom Brokaw which you can find on Youtube. The interview covered a range of topics and Reagan sounded nothing like Biden.

It is bourgeois and indulgent to focus this much political energy on an event that happened in the past, unless there had been no justice. But, that's not what happened. Those people went to jail and received unusually harsh punishments for their crimes and misdemeanors. Trump was thoroughly investigated by many authorities looking for evidence he committed a crime related to J6. So, action was taken. Yet we are repeatedly told that every other political concern is invalid due to J6. No one can worry about the economy because of J6, nor the border, nor crime. The only valid political concern is something that is over and done with. But, real people have real concerns that you people just dismiss because you're obsessed with an event in the past that can't be changed. It's like the Ds exist inside a PTSD flashback and are totally paralyzed, unable to move forward or even offer a vision od what moving forward would look like.


Yes and that investigation revealed Trump's dereliction of duty on that day. Perhaps not a crime but dereliction of duty in a moment like that is just as bad or worse in my opinion than anything Biden has ever done. Safe to say neither should be POTUS.

And a clip of Reagan’s final press conference is posted earlier in this thread. Reagan is sharp, coherent, well spoken, and in command of the issues. Biden has been none of these things gs during his entire term.

This is just more BS. The man who fomented an attempt to overturn a fair election has been reelected by voters with short memories who were duped by GOP propaganda. So much of what Trump ran on were lies/based on lies. So not real interested in his ideas for moving forward. His "concepts of a plan" are destructive.

And your disdain for PTSD with that offhand comment when there are people out there really suffering from it are telling. No wonder you are a Trump apologist. Just another MAGA with no brain or heart.

And your disdain for PTSD with that offhand comment when there are people out there really suffering from it are telling. No wonder you are a Trump apologist. Just another MAGA with no brain or heart.

And I firmly believe that a lot of these posts are from paid GOP trolls trying to “firehose” the internet with BS.


Sounds like another vast right-wing conspiracy.


It’s just modern campaigning, unfortunately. Pay a bunch of college kid’s minimum wage to spam the internet with lies and muddy the waters. Lots of evidence that our adversaries have done this for years. Easy as can be to organize a bunch of “interns” to do the same from next door if you’re as unethical as Trump and co.
