    I know. Screw the people’s choice. It’s the new tyranny.

    That's what the 14th states. The House of Representatives charged Trump with insurrection for his second impeachment trial, the senate found him not guilty. Trump has never been charged with insurrection in any other lawful venue let alone been convicted or pronounced guilty.

    Hence I think this is an overreach or wishful thinking.

    There are those who always oppose the sitting President. That is not unique to Trump.

    There should be consequences for people like Trump when they try to steal an election, overturn the Constitutional process, etc. We can't let wannabe dictators off the hook just because their coup failed.

    He's NOT the people's choice and never was, You can scream all you want, The numbers are in and the numbers belie you

    YOU are the new tyrants. Oppressive autocracies almost NEVER have popular support. Nazis, Communists, WPK, Khmer Rouge, etc. ALL of them are tiny elites.

    This is why we MUST indict and convict him of insurrection. We don't need to imprison him, he's really just a crazy old man. But we MUST make sure he cannot legally run again or his cult will destroy this country.

    Except that you can't indict and convict him of insurrection. Because he did not commit insurrection. You can claim that he did all that you want. But plain fact of the matter is that he didn't. And there is no evidence proving that. Even the FBI has admitted that.

    The only reason I voted for Biden was Trump candidacy. If in 2024 Republican candidate will be a normal candidate who oppose Jan 6 insurrection and who agrees that courts must decide if the election are stolen, I an not voting for Democrats.

    That doesn't matter even a little bit, The fact that your coup failed does NOT mean there was no coup. If you went to rob the local bank but then thought better of it when cops came in do you think they'd just let you go?

    And Trump openly approved of that storming while it was going on.

    No, I'm scared that he will use his loss in the election as a pretext to start a violent Civil War. He tried that this last time and is setting it up so he can try again, only this time he will back himself with elite mercenaries and additional thousands of his well-armed followers. He will still lose but our nation could suffer greatly.

    It does matter. We’re all BLM protesters rioters? This was not an attempt at a coup. You all sound silly to me.

    The hysterical propaganda you push hasn’t an ounce of reality behind it. Must really hate the idea of America First and helping Americans. Convict your political opponents!

    Stalin would be proud.

    I don't recall Dems chanting "lock him up" though we've had more than adequate cause to.

    Facts don’t care about your feelings. The hysteria over Trump is not rational.

    What does that have to do with anything? It's the lefties who are abusing their power to do as they please. They don't need anyone on the right in their kangaroo courts. But, even at that, the left can't even charge anyone with "insurrection", because there was none, just as there was no Trump collusion with the Russians regarding the 2016 election. And, we've had the left going after Trump's taxes for five years now and who is it that owes 500K in back taxes? Biden.
