It turns out the "Stop the Steal" campaign is a Roger Stone invention he started back in 2016 that, like the walking undead creature he is, has just been resurrected. Someone really should just put a stake through that monster's heart. Sociopaths don't use theirs.

"Ride of the Valkyries" seems appropriate since Trump is trying to make this the Gotterdamerung, burning Valhalla on the way out.

Laugh at them in Breitbart comment sections and on Twitter whilst the march is in progress. Keep asking if they know how to count.

I caught about 10 seconds of an on-street interview and I just can't watch it, for all the stupid.

Did you see them when Trump's motorcade went by? They really are scum, hardly even human. His supporters are like dogs vying for the attention of an indifferent owner. They came from all over the country to support is effort to stay in office and he went to the golf course. He spurned and ignored them and they cheered him for it like is lack of loyalty was a virtue. I have no sympathy for people so disgusting and weak. Stupid.

I'm not crazy about "not human" language.
It gives the recipients ammo to call their critics "The real Nazis" and it sort of lets them off the hook. I don't get mad at my cat if it barfs on the rug. I don't expect my cat to understand that's a bad thing. These actions are a choice, and they're not, for all of them, an unbreakable nature. Members of the KKK can deconvert, Proud boys can get a clue. My cat will never understand the value of furniture. They're dumb people making bad choices. I hope some of them will start to make better choices. And statistically, some of them will. |

I agree. Some of them are beyond help but not because they're "not human" but because they're just too far down the rabbit hole and, frankly, some of them are just plain stupid. I think some of them may, in time, come to see that they were conned, just as some get out of other cults. And they'll feel a bit foolish and embarrassed that they were so blind. I can see a support group for ex-Trump supporters just like a support group for ex-Mormons an ex-Mormon friend of mine took me to once

At least we don't have to worry about Trump's 70 million followers rising up to overthrow the cheaters.

Seems as though , according ot the Park Service; a littlle over 11'000 showed up,
I guess in Trumpworld 11000 is the new Million. I am stilll convinced some of the more extreme will turn to violence before this is over. |

IIRC, Feux is reporting 14 arrests at the march including 4 on firearms charges and 1 assault on a LEO - the rest on disorderly conduct.
I hope the morons who brought firearms see a jail sentence. |

A couple Trump supporters in a local newspaper's comment thread boasted that "hundreds of thousands" and "a million" Trump supporters were demonstrating in Washington DC, and bemoaned that the paper wasn't covering it.
The roughly thousand protestors were briefly mentioned in the paper's 2020 election live feed. The Trump supporters hadn't seen it. I guess they expected their hundreds of thousands of people would make the top of the page or something. |

The most dangerous thing is so many people are living an alternate reality.

The footage of El Presidente and his witless groupies today, reminded me of a scene from Mad Max Fury Road, when the Warboys are gazing adoringly at Immortan Joe who speeds past them staring ahead.

So Trump is supposed to be in this desperate fight to unmask the fraud that is robbing him of the Presidency, but he's got time to spend the afternoon on the golf course?
