The Capitol of the United States was physically breached with Congress in session.  I could care less that less physical damages were done to the Capitol building than to a storefront looted and burned in a BLM riot.   The latter is criminal behavior,  the former violent sedition urged on by the President.  It is completely unacceptable.

Trump's blunder is existential.   He should never be permitted to hold federal office again.  The responsibility of Trump supporters now should be to reject the man and work to save their movement's agenda.  If the two cannot be effectively separated,  them MAGA is effectively dead.

Hope you have your asbestos suit on.  Your silliness is getting ready to see some incoming higher temperatures.

Such a drama queen.  Were you clutching your pearls during this breach of the Capitol with the Congress in session debating the Kavanaugh confirmation @Jazzhead or when the Senate Minority Leader threatened two sitting Supreme Court Justices?   

Were these existential moments in our history?

But . . . but that's different.

Kristalnacht was already here,  courtesy of Trump's ginned up mob.

Here's what President Trump said during the speech:

Quote
"I know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard."

And here you are yet again giving a false narrative of the event.  As I pointed out in my previous post, every time you tell lies about Trump, I will come to his defense - not because I am a Trump follower, but because I hate lies.  Which is why I respond to most of your posts.

Do you even know what Kristalnacht is?

The Capitol of the United States was physically breached  .  .  .

In other words, 'No'.

I can't do that every time.  Because I'm an Admin, he keeps screaming "You're gonna punish me!  Freedom of Speech!!"  As if I'd abuse my position like that.  I made promises to the Boss Lady.

I'm not interested in people playing the victim like that.  If I was going to mean, I think I would have done that years ago....

Clarity, Virginia post a picture of the group with Commie fist posturing, the fanatical followers of socialism that tolerate none but the posture they were brainwashed to only accept.  As for Krystal nacht, it was the breaking of windows (crystal) of Jew establishments.  Of course the poorly educated, but indoctrinated stumble at even easily understood events, as they are in such a rush to p.c.stooge.

You do not make an effective moral argument by claiming that two wrongs make a right.   The Dems' actions during the Kavanaugh hearings were shameful.   Trump's actions in encouraging a mob to descend on the Capitol leaving wreckage and five deaths in its wake amount to sedition.

The man must resign or be removed.   My Senator,  Pat Toomey,  is correct that Trump committed impeachable offenses.   It is insane for MAGA supporters to forfeit their own moral capital by continuing to defend the indefensible.

Hell,  his own wife has condemned the violence more than Trump has.  Trump is a moral coward.   At what point will Trumpsters realized they have been betrayed?

Not in the least.

I heard his speech. If he incited violence then every politician who has ever given a campaign speech is guilty as well.

And (rightly) claiming the election was stolen doesn't qualify, either.

If you think otherwise then you'll have to provide quotes.

See?  There you go lying again.

Have you ever taken a searching fearless moral inventory of yourself and examined your shortcomings in that area?  Seriously, you are so obsessed with holding on to a lie here to the point that you are unwilling to hear anything to the contrary.  Some would call that 'deranged'.

What lie?  Under the law,   the consequences of reckless behavior can be visited when violence is reasonably foreseeable.   But even if Trump did not intend to incite his crowd to violence,  he remains morally responsible for the calamity.    He still has not renounced the violence committed in his name.

@Jazzhead

I only heard part of his speech. Trump has always been able to 'excite' a crowd much like a famous rockstar is able to 'excite' a crowd.  I didn't hear him telling people to riot, but admittedly I didn't listen to the entire speech.  As anyone campaigning they say things about their platform against their opponent; taxes, social security, jobs, gun laws, abortion, etc. 

IMHO the concern that the left has with Trump is the enormous size of the crowds that he draws and his ability to connect so well with them.  No President in history has ever drawn crowds the size that he does. None.

You might want to  listen to one of Hillary's speeches (video below) where she shrieks to get her crowd 'excited'.  Please watch the video -- the crowd gets excited, roars and shouts.  They chant "Hillary" immediately...

@Jazzhead if you honestly see or hear a difference in the tone of the speech or the excitement of the crowd, please, I'd be interested in trying to understand what you see or hear that is so different.

Romans 12:16-21

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.
