Trump learned a hard lesson of tolerating the deep Staters,who when they got the opportunities, stabbed him in the back.  Like mad dogs they turned and rent him for the good and generosities he enabled them to enjoy.  Tolerance to the vicious cruel intolerant is a fools endeavor.  I've seen that too many times.

Something's snapped, something's changed, in all of us.   It's not just Trump,  it's the pandemic, the riots, the collapse of civility and grace, the sense that things are spinning out of control. 

I'll promise to change if you will.  Deal?

I will try to tone down the rhetoric.  As my spouse has observed, I am a walking talking ball of pent up rage right now from what has happened the past 2 months.  From pandemic, to. stolen elections, to envirowhackos, to 24/7 SJW shit being shoved down my throat on TV.   Terrible times.

FTA:
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) said on a Monday GOP conference call that President Trump told him he takes some responsibility for inciting the riots that took place at the Capitol on Wednesday, two GOP sources confirmed to The Hill.

"I’d like to begin by addressing the heinous attack on the United States Capitol. Like all Americans I am outraged by the violence, lawlessness and mayhem...

To demonstrators who infiltrated the Capitol: you have defiled the seat of American democracy. To those who engage in the acts of violence and destruction: you do not represent our country. And to those who broke the law: you will pay." - President Donald J. Trump, January 7th, 2021

I find it unbelievable leftists and others are calling what Trump said sedition after the sh*t they've pulled these past four years.

It's so ludicrous & hypocritical one hardly knows how to respond to it.
Suffice it to say you have not proven your case.

And its beyond dishonest to demand the president step down NOW with 9 days left in his term and to pretend thats justice. There's something else on your mind but it ain't justice.

I am gonna have to back that right there. Goose/gander and all that.
I am normally atuned to lines that cannot be crossed - But part and parcel to our present circumstance is that there are no lines left that have not already been crossed.

And still they are ginning us all up - There is no just cause in pressing this sedition bullshit, especially in the face of the sedition that's been burning down our cities for nigh on a year. And voluminous examples exist of these very same people backing that sedition.

Now even if one were to posit some exuberance in Tumpy as some faint form of sedition - even if one is to grant that - It pales in comparison to what has come before.

So it is... disingenuous - And in that I am being overly kind - To point to that line as if it is a demarcation into no-man's-land.

And there is not even the grace to let 10 days go by and thereby leave folks to cool down.

....hmmm....still waiting for a response @Jazzhead   No response indicates to me you have no rebuttal...meaning Hillary's excited crowd was no different than Trump's. 

As for something changing in us...speaking for myself ....nothing has changed .... I've stated many times...either you choose to stand with those on the side trying to  move this country forward in a positive direction or you stand with those trying to destroy our Republic.  You can color the situation anyway you want, but you can't deny truth.

Lighten up,  will ya?  I responded to you in post #2391.

His tweet that "riots are what happens" are pretty culpable IMO.

My issue is that half the House Democrats should be in prison now for the same thing for the BLM riots over the summer.

I don't disagree.   It's just I hold folks on " my side" to a higher standard.  Too wrongs don't make a right.    Impeaching the President with mere days left in his term should not occur because it would needlessly polarize the nation,  not because he didn't commit impeachable acts.

Recall our VP elect actually participated in the Lafayette Square protest which ultimately resulted in Trump being required to enter the WH bomb shelter and of St John's being burned.

Speaking of that "higher standard", can you please pinpoint the wording in President Trump's speech that were seditious?  With all this "higher standard" talk, is the blame you levied at the President based upon something he actually said instead of something completely invented by you with no basis in truth?

If you simply made it up based on your emotional state at the time, then just admit it.  But by continuing this charade of blaming Trump for something that he never said;  well that is just plain dishonest.

If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

-Dwight Eisenhower-


"The [U.S.] Constitution is a limitation on the government, not on private individuals ... it does not prescribe the conduct of private individuals, only the conduct of the government ... it is not a charter for government power, but a charter of the citizen's protection against the government."

A difference of opinion is not a lie.   That crowd was ginned up to march on the Capitol and fight.   Trump needs to be responsible for the foreseeable consequences of his irresponsible rhetoric.   Morally if not legally.  But I'm okay with legally.
You said he urged violent dissension.

Your words.

Your lies.

Thank a @Cyber Liberty for saving me the frustration. 

@Jazzhead I am not trying to hold your feet to the fire, but rather trying to understand your bias logic in all of this.
Had to correct that one.

They did a hell-of-a-lot more than that! They toppled the greatest experiment in human freedom this world has ever seen and likely ever will see.  The sooner we grasp that fact the better off we are going to be.

He certainly will.  "His side" is not "our side."  That means everything he says about how "conservatives" are supposed to think a certain way is an application of Alinsky's rule about making your enemy to live up to his own rules, as Jazzy sees them.

If my "side" had won,  the GOP would have retained the Senate and be able to thwart the prog agenda.  Let's not forget that Trump's post-election obsession led not only to the ruination of his career and the likely demise of MAGA,  but directly to the elimination of the only check we had left to stop both socialism and the demonization of patriotic Americans

We will have to start over again from scratch.   From the catbird seat to the bottom -  all in the space of two months.   Thanks for nothing, Mr.Trump.
