Yeah, it doesn't make any sense.

The only good coming out of this is that even Republicans are starting to distance from trump. But I am worried too many people have drank the koolaid.

I'm still baffled over how so many people have so completely bought into Trump and self-made myth and his years of nonstop pathological lies that things have come to this.

Also, both the RNC and DNC headquarters had to be evacuated because suspicious devices were found near them. This really is turning into terrorism.

Imagine basing a large part of your personality around fervently supporting a game show host that managed to fail upwards into being the shittiest president ever.

Hang all of these stupid motherfuckers.

His new game show is "The Biggest Loser."

These morons aren't the tip of the spear. They're the entire plunger.

the head of the National Manufacturers Association just called for Pence to invoke the 25th Amendment and remove Trump from office. and it's not even 6 o'clock yet.

A female member of the mob has been fatally shot inside the Capitol building. Still proud, MAGA fanboys?

What a sad and fucking disgusting day for the US it was today. What the actual fuck is wrong with people?

My sentiments exactly. :/

It flashes back to Lincoln’s Cooper Union speech before he was even his party’s nominee in 1860. “Rule or ruin.” We’re still there.

Except that “or” is, with every passing day of this nightmare, more clearly not disjunctive.

this is the craziest shit i've ever seen, and i was 17 when Watergate happened.

One of the most haunting counterfactuals for me on the politics of the US in my lifetime is how things would have been different if Ford hadn’t pardoned Nixon. Reagan stood by Nixon and never backed away. Would he have won the presidency and restocked his administration with the same criminals and radicals? And from there all the through-lines to the current demonstration of end-stage Reaganism (or Goldwaterism to go a nonce further back, capturing the embrace of the John Birch Society crackpots, the intellectual ancestors of Qanon).

And back to the coup that was plotted against FDR.

How is this happening now? This is the culmination of a generational project that does not see its work wrapping up here.

exactly. i would not be surprised if in the next phase the far right literally does terrorist attacks. accelerationism is big among neofascists, which is the belief that the collapse of the current order can be precipitated by terror and fomenting chaos. it used to be popular on the far left in the 70s; people used to say "vote for the biggest pig so the revolution will come faster." the Weather Underground were left accelerationists. there are a lot of right-wing nutbags out there with automatic weapons, and a lot of people who know improvised explosives from their tour(s) of duty in the military. if i was in a big city, i'd stay indoors as much as possible for the next couple of months even if there was no pandemic. they're sitting on the motives of the Nashville bomber, which i would bet are tied into Qanon somehow. the FBI has said they have his social media, but aren't saying anything.

Apparently it was antifa that got excited at that Trump rally yesterday and then attacked the Capital. I never would have guessed!
