Do you think they get it yet? If not, what will it take? Now Congress knows how it feels to be  attacked by a mob of white men and realize the law is not going to protect you! Can you imagine what would have happened if black people did that? I wish I could hear what is being said in their homes. 

MY RESPONSE:

I went on Parler last night (Yes, I have an account) and they are living in a different universe.  Too many fo them still think Trump won. They think that as long as Trump never uses the word “concede”, he can hold on to the presidency.

Someone is suggestion that 1,000,000 of them show up on Jan 20 with guns.  

A few are now turning on Trump.  They thought his speech was cowardly.

I anticipated this moment as I have been paying attention to their anger.  But I was frightened by the reaction of some of the cops as it appeared as too many of them enabled them.  And when that fucking Confederate flag hung in the capital, I was outraged.

We need many more republicans to speak out.  We need Pelosi to impeach even if it doesn’t remove him.  She needs to make the statement. He needs to be arrested.

Five people are dead because of his fragile ego.  He grabbed $400,000 from his cult.  And he wants to flee to Scotland.  AND THEY STILL LOVE HIM.  They need to go through cult separation training.

A brighter future is ahead.  We have the POTUS, Senate and Congress.  Let’s get it done.
