    What do you mean? This IS his legacy. Its all he has done for the last 4 years, nothing else.
    And you support him.
    Honest question, how do you feel about that at this point? Still support him out of habit or do you care about this country at all?
    Where is your line?

    She was no 'patriot', she was a seditionist, a terrorist.

    MAGA is putting American interests ahead of your own. Making the country a stronger, better, wealthier country when you leave office than when you entered. Biden will do that. Donny did the opposite.

    What choice does she have?
    The loser trump cost her her seat in Congress, why would she and all her money and phony ballcap keep kneeling at that alter?
    She is a terrible speaker BTW, hard to listen to.

    Yes. And there’s no equivalent incitement from Dem leaders about the BLM riots. Dem leaders condemned violence.

    Yes. She was no saint.
    And, she was (obviously) deeply embedded into the QAnon mindset.

    But, she didn't deserve to die.

    She would be alive today if Trump hadn't incited that Deadly Riot

    I didn't say she deserved to die, its terrible that her President brainwashed her into dying.
    But, and I know we aren't supposed to say this but, cults are like this, cults kill people and get people killed. Trumpers are a cult, it simply can't be denied no matter how many posts saying are removed.

    There should be an immediate investigation to determine if the low LEO presence was in any way intentional, so that potential culprits can be held partially responsible for that woman's death.

    Oh, I understood that.

    And, I wasn't implying that you thought that.

    And, YES it is incredibly Sad that her mindset was embedded so deeply into QAnon and Absurd (unfounded) Trump Conspiracies.

    The day before she died she retweeted Lin Wood.

    She was obviously deeply (and, in the end, FATALLY) influenced by Trump.

    I really feel sorry for her and her family.

    The incredibly graphic video and the still photos of the aftermath have made their way into the darkest corners of the internet.

    And, her memory is being egregiously disrespected.

    But, it was a "good shoot" (for the Capitol Police).
    The Cop acted rationally (and in good faith).

    That said, She would be alive today (if not for Trump).

    I agree, she did not deserve to die but some folks obviously think she did.

    Agreed.

    Wrong Place/Wrong Time.

    BUT, that "Wrong (FATAL) Place" would not have existed if not for Trump.

    MAGA has nothing to do with "American interests". It is about revitalizing western political theory and liberalism, and it is, by my view, the only real rebuttal to neoliberal elitism in America. That's why MAGA is called a terrorist group (as has been the common sentiment presented in news media for the last few years). Also, MAGA was never about obtuse concepts like:
    MAGA found a conduit in Trump Inc. because Trump was hated by virtually all the neoliberals and neocons in government who want to restrict American liberty by astroturfing cultural movements and imposing new collectivistic moral paradigms. That's all MAGA has ever been about my friend.
    No, he will not. Biden will continue lambasting Trump and MAGA because he, like you, doesn't understand what MAGA was in the first place. He thinks MAGA = Republican sore losers or some conflation of the concept.

    Nobody deserved to die in the storming of the Capitol.
    But if you're gonna die, is it worth it dying at the behest of that vile hideous friend of suicided Jeffrey Epstein?
    What mugs they are to believe a landslide election was stolen with no evidence whatsoever.
    America is turning into a giant Jonestown.

    Some sort of an "inside job" is looking like a possibility.

    Why was the police presence so sparse?

    When everybody knew this was coming (for weeks)

    The police folded like tissues.
    What would've been wrong with even a four pistol volley of shots into the air a couple of times?
    How many days has Trump got left to start his nuclear war?
