USA Today Poll finds 58% of Republicans believe Capitol Riot was organized by Antifa

[lacrossepro70]

How about the “it was likely several anarchist groups of which ANTIFA is only one” you seem to keep ignoring anything that doesn’t fit your butt hurt screeching.

Several anarchist groups totally unrelated and not there with the common goal of overthrowing the government on behalf of Trump?

 

[luthervol]

How was it orchestrated by Trump?

Trump started laying the ground work prior to the election. He was already trying to convince his minions that the only way he could lose would be if the election was fraudulent. He was relentless after the election that it was stolen from him with wide spread fraud. He supported every known conspiracy as if it was truth. He did all of this with the full knowledge that his worshipers were blindly eating up every word.
Hell, half the posters in the PF bought into the lunacy.

What was the goal of the protestors that entered the Capitol, in your opinion?

To be heard in a relatively peaceful manner.

Because of they were dead set on being violent, we wouldn't have a Capitol building right now.

And we'd probably be holding a bunch of special Congressional races too.

So, please give up this silly notion it was a coup or insurrection or anything of the sort.

 

[RockyTop85]

You think they had a goal? Maybe a couple did.

So they were just wandering around DC in combat cosplay, saw some barricades and just kept walking aimlessly despite getting shoved and punched by police officers? Their pointlessness was undeterred by pepper balls and OC spray?

All these Twitter posts, video recordings, court filings, etc. are deep fakes?

That’s not what I said but I can see where you’re not smart enough to understand the fallacy in your statement relating to Trump and anarchists in general

Be heard by who? What were they trying to tell them?

 

[loggervol]

Call me crazy but I'd say an American flag fashioned into a spear is at least mildly alarming

You know, from all those people impaled by that spear with a flag on it?

Just because they could have been more violent doesn't mean they were not violent.
It's like telling the cop who is writing you a ticket for going 80, "If I would have wanted to speed, I would have gone 120."

Get your own material sister.

Thanks a lot. I'll be here all week.

I think it’s funny that after 3+ years of everything being a traitorous coup, suddenly that has a really narrow definition.

So as I have stated before we are dealing with adults, not children. Trump spoke his opinion. Nothing more. What someone chose to do with that info is their business. And whatever consequences that are associated with those choices are THEIR fault. NOT Trumps.

 

[RikidyBones]

Can we go back to talking about 58% of Republicans think Antifa organized the coup? We were getting some really interesting arguments here.

Since you didn't correct yourself about the Nazis blaming the "left wing socialists" I'll assume you don't know a damn thing about history. The "left wing" opposition to the Nazis(socialists) were the communists. #TheMoreYouKnow

Hmmm why did we see video of cops letting people past the barriers? And basically doing nothing? Why was there cops just watching it take place?

 

[RikidyBones]

Enjoy your cancer.

Dude, what?

 

[volfanhill]

Was it a coup? No . Public display of being a moron? Yes.

 

[BigOrangeTrain]

The people who the opinions of a man and decides to break the law on their own volition are definitely morons.

Biden admitted to breaking into the chamber when he was younger so by the same standard he should be impeached and removed

Truth. They should take a lesson from VN and just be morons on the internet.

[loggervol]

A one-off member of an organization going rogue does not merit condemnation of an organization writ large. It's irrelevant. The false equivalency of such is beyond reason but at this point it's about all we can expect from Republican voters and conservative media consumers.

How many were killed and how many businesses were burned down during the summer of love? How many offenders were bailed out of jail by kh. So they could cause more damage?

It’s all cool because all of that was “peaceful protests.” All those lives ruined. All that private and government property destroyed. All of those acts are textbook domestic terrorism. Yet were praised when they were happening.

 

[C-south]

Yeah let's just bring Covid masks into the convo. Nothing weird about that.

So you do.

Yeah fully aware. Thanks tho. Ironically the Nazis were quite good at blaming lefties for the **** the Nazis started. Some interesting parallels there.

Man you just got one dumbass deflection point after another don’t you.
