I can't post what I'm thinking after watching McConnell's and Schumer's opening speeches in the Senate debate over Arizona. So I'll just watch the mayhem instead.

They've breached the Capitol and have made it to the Senate chambers.  Senators are locked inside.

I'm really conflicted .... folks are outraged.  I think what may be stunning everyone (me, included) is we've never, ever seen our side explode.

This isn't going to change a darn thing.  Pence does not have the authority to decide the election.

Our side? When we have a SCOTUS that looks the other way, judges that won't even hear the obvious cases of fraud, then what choice do we have?  The ballot box is no longer an option.

I do not condone the violence of any group, and Antifa, BLM have been the 'enforcers' of the DEMS.  They have been allowed to continue.

The Trump supporters will be rounded up and punished -- guarantee it -- while Antifa and BLM will be allowed to continue.

It's a disturbing thing that a crowd would assault the US Capitol.  But at some point the people have to put fear back into the government, and when the people no longer believe in the ballot box then the people resort to other means.  While I don't support this rioting, I do understand it.

And at some level it's good for the elected officials to recognize that while BLM and Antifa might riot and destroy city blocks, when the other side finally has enough the stakes will be much, much higher.

Same.

As it turns out, the title of this thread was quite prescient.

I truly have conflicted feelings on this, especially since he NEVER used the Insurrection Act and should have.

There is a large pro trump Chinese contingent here. Anti communist in nature I’m sure. In fact he has a following in many countries among the disenchanted, disenfranchised, especially in Asia. Apparently he has touched some kind of universal nerve.

Why haven't the media rushed to decry "Dictator" Trump deploying his "storm troopers?"

Who knows what Romney thinks are his future political prospects. My guess is he’s most interested in grabbing as much donor cash as he possibly can before Utah tosses him out.
