Most of the protesters for BLM didn’t burn and loot though WB. Nor did any of our democratic leaders call the arsonists and looters special people that they loved like Trump did with the mob he incited. He lost a fair election and because he’s willing to lie and try every way he can to overturn the election several people died including 2 officers. Our symbol of democracy vandalized for the world to see. Now there is intelligence that all 50 capitals could be under attack by pro-trump terrorists as well as the inauguration. The elected officials that had to scramble for their lives now have to worry more than ever about their lives.
You are again twisting Trump's words to tailor it to fit your lying narrative. Trump addressed his supporters, and advised them not to "play into the hands" of those orchestrating the violence. He was speaking to the OVER 100,000 peacefully demonstrating outside, and the 75 million watching nationwide, also betrayed and angry. Not to the 35 or 40 or so out of that 100,000 engaging in violence. And even appealing to the violent ones who support him to stop.
And you have a short memory. During the BLM protests over many months, Pelosi, Biden, Warren, ANY of the 25 Democrat primary candidates, not one of them condemned the violence, and many passively or directly endorsed it as some "justified" backlash at a racist white supremacist system. Which only encouraged more of it. Chris Cuomo and Don Lemon nightly on CNN rationalized it. "Who ever said protests are supposed to be polite and peaceful?" Cuomo famously rationalized. Well... THE FIRST AMENDMENT, actually, Chris.
These BLM /Antifa rioters were and are the Democrats' equivalent nazi-brownshirt thugs that intimidated away opposition to their political agenda, and Democrat Senators, Democrat House members, Demnocrat presidential primary candidates, or even former Democrat presidents or Democrat strategists, NEVER voiced criticism of the BLM violence at any time in 2020. Partly because these democrat leaders were intimidated by BLM as well, and didn't want the violence re-directed at them or their campaigns for getting in the way. The didn't want BLM or Antifa to reject any of them politically, and rally behind their Democrat rivals.
I will acknowledge this video, that shows a number of former highly-trained military who were among the protesters, a group calle Oath Keepers.
But contrary to the narrative that they are traitors who used their training to betray their own country, I would argue that they are patriots who saw a marxist insurrection take over our government in the rigged Biden election, and used their training in a poorly thought out attempt to reverse an unfair election, in their minds to defend the republic. But the Left-aligned media and Democrat leadership just uses their actions to conflate the beliefs of Oath Keepers with those of Trump supporters, a narrative make the rest of us look bad, and these Oath Keepers guys should have seen that would be the media portrayal and never done it. One of them cited in the clip is a Lieutenant Colonel, many of them longtime soldiers decorated for their bravery, with special forces training. As was Ashli Babbitt.
You might ask yourself, M E M, why people this committed during their lives to fighting for this country, who clearly had position and a great deal to lose, would risk it in a move like this. These are very serious and highly trained people, Special Forces, decorated veterans. They saw an outrageous election coup, and an existential threat to the country they spent their lives fighting to defend. These are not defiant pranksters and iconoclasts and contemptuous malcontents like BLM vandal John Earle Sullivan, or like the stay-at-home blogger dad who stole Nancy Pelosi's podium, or like the 63 year old guy who posed for a photo with his feet up on Pelosi's desk. None of these individuals or the more serious veterans had the same shared ideology or motive for being there.
As this unfolds, I'm struck by the wide spectrum of motives for the people who were in the Capitol raid that day. While some profess to be Trump supporters, and some are false-flag Leftists just pretending to be Trump supporters to smear them, you definitely can't blame this on Trump's 12-noon speech. The planning of this raid, and the ideology behind it, doesn't fit into a nice neat "Orange Man Bad" category, and the timing of it doesn't coincide with Trump's speech. It precedes it, in both planning and execution. For the military guys, it was the election rigging, and not just the one November 3rd event, but that just apparently was a last straw that stirred them into action.
