    Exactly. Bush was a secret Democrat. They had control of the Republican party.

    Trump changed that.

    You'd know the answer better than I if denial was your first step. All I know is Trump had only to, as an poster previously pointed out (and Mitt too), tell the truth. Say, "the people have spoken, I lost the election. Now I encourage all the people who voted for me to accept that reality and work towards making America a better place to live in."
    Imagine how different the last 4 years could have been if Trump hadn't told thousands of lies during that time.

    The ONLY shots fired that day came from the Capitol Police rent-a-cop force. Using rhetoric like this is hyperbolic and makes you appear foolish.

    How about camps? Since you control the schools, you can interrogate children on what they hear their parents say at home so you can make them pay for their beliefs that differ from the controlling party.

    How about you withholding electoral support from an inveterate liar who refused to accept the overwhelming result of the election.

    Sorry bro, but last Wednesday is on you and those of like mind.

    No need. The schools will teach the next generations about Trump and his fanatics who stormed the Capitol destroying everything in their path at his instigation. The heroic guards who held off the evil hordes and spirited the helpless legislators away who then returned, in the face of certain death, to complete the vote count and insure the transfer of power to the saviors, The Biden and The Harris !

    Next chapter: The Comeuppance !

    Lee doesn't control the schools. Local school boards do.

    You mean like Hillary and Pelosi? Didn't they call a duly elected president illegitimate and that he hijacked the election? Did they get their Twit account suspended? There is no excuse for what those thugs did last week. Their actions were uncharacteristic of Trump supporters. Here you are talking about going after those with opposing political views. Please tell us what we should do with those with beliefs inconsistent with the controlling party.

    You are confusing the Big Lie with a belief.

    Bush and Kerry were both members of the skulls and bones and rigged the election so one of them would win. The Skull and Bones is a secret group from Yale that ain't so secret. They made a movie about them with Joshua Jackson and the guy from Coach the tv show.

    They have been electing presidents and politicians since the 18,000s. Most of them Democrats but some Republicans too.

    As for the topic you can't even prove Trump incited violence. Give it up.

    Traitor Trump doesn't have anywhere near 70 million followers

    Most of Trumps votes were a straight party line vote

    Then there is his attempts to overturn the Election phone calls to Georgia

    Then there is Trump inciting a riot to storm the capital and insurrection to overturn a branch of Government

    So Traitor Trump is down to few hundred thousand if he's Lucky

    Traitor Trump finally pushed once to many times

    or there will be the cult types, but most Republicans think for themselves and will want to get back to being Republican again

    Six rioters had weapons. Not that they needed them to beat a cop to death.

    The thing that still amazes me to this day is the restraint shown by the Capital police in not shooting more members of the seditious mob after watching video of what they did.

    Ah, the national school boards do not have contact with our kids. Teachers do. What percentage of teachers are Dem?

    Once you're done moving the goalposts watch Mitt explain all that was needed to keep the Capital from being stormed by the Orange Insurrectionist's mob was the truth.

    Of course, I was being tongue in cheek.

    How about if the left wing media stops it’s lies too? How about if Democrats don’t lie either?

    In a few days, your party controls everything. How about if your party stops hating, stops race-baiting, stops demonizing the opposition and stops demonizing half of America?

    How about that?

    Nope. The goal post is still about payback for those with opposing views. The example I used is common in some countries. I understand you have a lot of anger towards Trump supporters, I was just trying to see how far you would go. The thugs that attacked the capitol are not a fair representation of Trump supporters. They should get due process like any other criminal.

    No need to given that approximately half of those things are not their fault. In fact, half of them are arguably as much the fault of Democrats/progressives than of Trump supporters.

    Are you going to hold Democrats accountable for failing to support the president? Thought not.

    How about you prove any of your assertions are true. Let's start there.
