gillbot Posted January 8, 2021 Report Share Posted January 8, 2021 If Trump had won in November and ANTIFA had stormed the capital building to stop the electoral college count, I have a hard time thinking that anyone here would find any silver linings. This really doesn't seem like the way anything ought to be accomplished. I agree this isn’t the way many things should be accomplished, but here we are. When the other side won’t concede or compromise AT ALL, we end up here. Kind of ironic isn’t it? Also, I’d say you’d be wrong. I’d feel the same if this were reversed. I don’t support either corrupt party. Lindsay Graham said multiple times in his speech things along the lines of, "One of them could have had a bomb." I honestly hadn't really though about that before he said it. The first thing that was on my mind when this was talked about before it started was “I hope they don’t go in strapped with guns or even worse”. I don’t want to see anyone get hurt.

Mallard Posted January 8, 2021 Report Share Posted January 8, 2021 Completely insane that he was denied approval, and an hour and a half was lost trying to get approval. https://www.forbes.com/sites/andrewsolender/2021/01/07/maryland-governor-says-pentagon-repeatedly-denied-approval-to-send-national-guard-to-capitol/ Hogan said during a press conference that he convened an emergency meeting of his “unified command team” when he was informed of a mob of Trump supporters descending on the Capitol as lawmakers attempted to certify President-elect Joe Biden’s victory. Hogan says he mobilized 200 “specially trained” state troopers and instructed Maj. Gen. Timothy Gowen, the general of the Maryland National Guard, to mobilize his troops. House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer called Hogan from an “undisclosed bunker” and were “pleading” with him for assistance from his state and national forces, the governor said. However, Hogan, who requires the Department of Defense’s authority to mobilize his National Guard troops, said he was “repeatedly denied” approval to do so from the Pentagon despite being “ready, willing and able” to assist. Hogan said he had a “back and forth trying to get that authorization” and that, about an hour and a half later, Secretary of the Army Ryan McCarthy gave approval to send his troops to Washington, D.C.

Anytime someone says peaceful protest in this country, this is inevitably what happens. Too many bad apples out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spankis Posted January 8, 2021 Report Share Posted January 8, 2021 I'm going to say it's because he can't presently be trusted to function in public. The same reason Sleepy 'Ol Joe has managed to put out 2 very coherent live statements compared to Donnie's pre-recorded teleprompter read with half a dozen visible editing cuts.

[emoji38]It had already come out last week that he was planning to fly in AF1 to his golf course in Ireland on the 19th (but sounds like Ireland is denying him access). No way he was ever planning on attending Biden’s inauguration. Sent from my SM-G973U using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
