Well at least it's not as bad as taking a knee, right?
On the bright side, even Fox News was appalled and a number of GOP Congresspeople were calling it a coup. Maybe this may help getting Trumpism out - as now those who tried to fan the flames now have been personally threatened. Sent from my Pixel 4 XL using Tapatalk

Of course Biden is the first one to speak because Trump has no leadership capabilities.

I think it is insurrection, but I also worry a bit that the more people say it the more likely it is that Trump pulls the last lever he has, the Insurrection Act.

ABCNews reporting that thus far Trump has refused to say anything and that he sees this as a potential opportunity - waiting to see how it plays out.

It's amazing listening to Biden and how he can talk and not make it all about himself or sound like some blathering idiot that can't stay on topic.

This is Trump. He's always asking others to assume all the risk so that he can reap all the rewards.

Do the Senate and House have to meet at the Capital to conduct business?

It's going to be very interesting to see if the tone and rhetoric are any different. I'm assuming this going to go much quicker and more in line with previous certifications now. Last edited by Atocep : 01-06-2021 at 04:38 PM. |
