It's not cynical. It is pretty obvious that his behavior since 1/6 is not typical Trump behavior. It's been much more scripted (should I say almost presidential, for once). It's either that he is following the advice of Kushner and co (most likely), or he has realized himself that the direction he took before 1/6 was leading to a lot of headwind, even with many of his supporters. As I said, damage control.
Total Damage Control. "Trump Leaves Peacefully"? What alternative did he have? Surely, nobody was expecting "Suicide in the Bunker"? Did they? Of course, "Trump left peacefully"? What choice did he have?
I see. And why there weren’t lots of troops here when ton of Republican voters gathered next to the Capitol 2 weeks ago? I’ll tell you why. Violence, rioting, looting and such is expected of Democrats: no one expected this **** of Republicans, and the Capitol police got caught with their pants down. The fault is theirs. Kinda obvious of an answer
I'm sure the leftist narrative for the next four years will be how Trump is actively working with Russia to undermine president elect Harris' (Biden said that) presidency.
It was his nature and corruptness. He apparently gave the overthrow of our government a try, but failed either through incompetence or insufficient support. And, no, that has yet to be proven...stay tuned. In the end...he had no choice. Did you expect him to take on 25,000 armed soldiers?
Riot wing domestic terrorists? Yeah ok. The majority of murders in this country come from big cities and has nothing to do with the right. How many mass shootings have we recently had? Now compare that to the daily shootings in Chicago...
He was required to leave when Biden was inaugurated, not before. As for the speech, I deplored ut,it, as I deplored Sen. Schumer threatening the Supreme Court justices (who at that point had not made any rulings) with reaping a whirlwind. What do you suppose he meant.
You mean all those nasty white males who had been infiltrated by fascists? Anyway, he left peacefully. That's what we're talking about.
wow it has been proven that antifa had NOTHING to do with the january 6th insurrection .. and BTW trumps america did not stop until this morning tommorrow is Bidens america
There was no insurrection. There were a few nuts, as a percentage of the millions who voted for Trump,, and far fewer than your guys, who burned down Minneapolis and firebombed a few police stations and tried to burn down a federal courthouse because da racism. Of course, the left just wants understanding of root causes when their side grabs molotov cocktails. And what's with you all and your facial coverings and black helmets?
You call an insurrection "peaceful"?? Trump is a sociopathic thug who did extensive damage to the USA. I'm glad he's gone but it would have been much better if the first impeachment had thrown him out of office.
There was no insurrection, and if you call that motley mob of idiots an insurrection, Trump did not direct or encourage them to enter the Capitol, much less violently. He was supposed to leave today, not on the 6th. Today. And he left today. On schedule Peacefully. To your infinite disappointment.
Whose "disappointment"? Nobody that I know. Of course, I don't deal in RW Fantasies. Once again, he "left peacefully"? So what? What did people expect to happen? Of course, he "left peacefully". (As Expected).
"So," your side, composed of hysterics, soft on the violence of Antifa and BLM, who ridiculously predicted he'd be dragged out kicking and screaming, was mistaken. As I always knew.
Huh? Not ME. NOT "My Side". Then again, as I stated before, I don't deal in QAnon Fantasies and the Dark Recesses of Parler Conspiracies. But hey, you are certainly entitled to your opinion. So, I guess we will have to agree to disagree. Feel free to take the last word. As everyone knows, I never waste time getting into back-and-forth exchanges with people who insist that "1+1=3". All the best, and Happy Inauguration Day.
