There are roughly 2000 Capitol police. Why the heck were there only about 200 there in the Capitol when everyything went down? Why the hell were not police called to the Capitol????
I don't know.
But you still don't explain why Trump did nothing to stop the violence. He had the power to do something. But he chose not to.
The violence is what he wanted. There is no other explanation for his lack of action.
This is correct. There was no known reason to have more than 200 police officers at the Capitol that day. Trump incited the riot. Trump knew that there would be violence there that day, and he reveled in it...reports tell us that. He NEVER called anyone to stop the violence there...PENCE had to do so.
Of COURSE Trump didn't call anyone to quell the rioting. He wanted it. He knew it was going to happen. It was part of his plan to stay in power.
Sally, it is time for you to admit that Trump is a bad guy. You don't have to like liberal policies, and you can even embrace policies that Trump put forward, BUT, it is clear that he's criminal, violent and amoral. There is no sane way to not see that.
Upon learning that the crowd was chanting for Mike Pence to be obtained and hanged (which he of course motivated), he literally said Pence deserves it.
LOL! Because Liz Cheney said so with absolutely zero evidence...
You can't be that stupid...
you and your claims about 'absolutely zero evidence.'
first you claim that there was no proof pence started issuing orders to the military and I showed you that Milley testified to that, under oath.
Now here's the evidence of trump saying pence should be hanged. Multiple witnesses. Although I will say the chain of people confirming things is a little sketchy on this one and maybe trump was trying to be funny.
May 25th, 2022 story in the NYT:
Shortly after hundreds of rioters at the Capitol started chanting “Hang Mike Pence!” on Jan. 6, 2021, the White House chief of staff, Mark Meadows, left the dining room off the Oval Office, walked into his own office and told colleagues that President Donald J. Trump was complaining that the vice president was being whisked to safety. Mr. Meadows, according to an account provided to the House committee investigating Jan. 6, then told the colleagues that Mr. Trump had said something to the effect of, maybe Mr. Pence should be hanged. It is not clear what tone Mr. Trump was said to have used. But the reported remark was further evidence of how extreme the rupture between the president and his vice president had become, and of how Mr. Trump not only failed to take action to call off the rioters but appeared to identify with their sentiments about Mr. Pence — whom he had unsuccessfully pressured to block certification of the Electoral College results that day — as a reflection of his own frustration at being unable to reverse his loss. The account of Mr. Trump’s comment was initially provided to the House committee by at least one witness, according to two people briefed on their work, as the panel develops a timeline of what the president was doing during the riot. Another witness, Cassidy Hutchinson, a former aide to Mr. Meadows who was present in his office when he recounted Mr. Trump’s remarks, was asked by the committee about the account and confirmed it, according to the people familiar with the panel’s work. It was not immediately clear how much detailed information Ms. Hutchinson provided. She has cooperated with the committee in three separate interviews after receiving a subpoena.

That report did not come from Cheney. It was not part of the hearing, but may be in a future hearing.

sally has agreed trump is a bad guy but supports him anyway. Because...because...oh sally you explain it.
The parties couldn't possibly be reversed in that situation. Trumpettes are willing to destroy America. They attempted to do so.
Biden followers (all three of them) and the rest of the non-Trumpettes would never in a million years try to destroy America like the Trumpettes did (and undoubtedly will attempt again).
Biden is actively destroying America while you idiots cheer him on.
Democrats were actively destroying US cities in 2020 while idiots like you cheered them on and idiots like Biden offered to bail them out of jail if they ran across a DA who wasn't bought and paid for by the DNC.
Democrats attacked the White House in 2020 and made of Trump when the secret service evacuated him.
Democrats attacked multiple federal buildings in 2020. The Washington Post was so upset they ran a fashion campaign of the antifa losers in their disgusting paper...
You're an idiot. It's totally obvi to anyone with an IQ over 75.
No one on the right condones what happened on 1/6 except maybe Trump.
Meanwhile, EVERYONE on the left LOVED the riots in 2020.
On the right the fringe nuts are treated like fringe nuts.

What do you mean? Things were getting heated for a few hours before everything hit the fan. 2000 Capitol police and only 200 at the Capitol at the time when everything went down. Why were not more Capitol police called to the Capitol after things began to go south? Are these guys like Mayberry or like the Uvalde School district police where they do nothing but wait for orders? There is no good reason that 1000 Capitol police were not there when everything went down. Just no reason. Not like they lived in NYC. They live in DC!!!

Milley has already lied to congress under oath. He has no credibility.
The New York Times lies on a daily basis and has even less credibility than Milley.

I don't support Trump. I want him to go away. I don't support another witch hunt like the 2 impeachment hearings where Trump was acquitted (not guilty) twice. All the House Dems can do is engage in these partisan witch hunts and NOT EVVEN PROVIDE SECURITY FOR THE JUSTICES OF THE SUPREME COURT! They don't care about security. They want Kavanaugh and Gorsuch killed. Schumer has called for that.

Ridiculous BS.
Everything I said is on camera and spoken by the people accused.
Your claims are all hearsay by 3rd parties some of whom are notorious anti-Trumpers.

Love that you trust trump and Putin, two of the most repellent and obvious and prolific liars on the planet, but you don’t trust milley and Liz cheney. How do you live with yourself?

A majority of the house and a majority of the senate voted to convict trump.

Either Milley was lying or Biden is lying. Neither is a good scenario.
I, on the one hand, can EASILY imagine that all of you Trumpers are different people. Polls and elections show that there are tens of millions of you, unfortunately.
You guys, on the other hand, apparently can't handle the likely fact that all of the non-Trumpers on this thread are different people.
And if the numbers were WAY bigger, it might be easier to understand the (head in the sand) reluctance. But really, you can't handle the idea that there might be 10 non-Trumpers, give or take, who regularly visit this thread?
Pathetic. Like usual.
Yes. Go angry agip. 😡😡😡😡😂😂😂😂😂
Yet more advertising. "Look at me, I frequent a discussion board, yet am incapable of discussing/arguing." Impressive.

Yeah, because all unrest is exactly the same.
Oh yeah, and I forgot - high gas prices are the same as trying to destroy the nation.

Or Bill Barr or Ivanka, both of whom said Trump's Big Lie was BS. I mean, BILL BARR!? Bill Barr has perhaps the most "Power to the President" thoughts of any lawmaker in US history, and HE told Trump that any idea of a stolen election was "bullsh*t." Barr was extremely loyal to Trump regarding everything else, but because Barr wouldn't support him with his criminal intent, he chastised him.
Absolutely RIDICULOUS for anyone to believe a thing Trump says. He's a serial liar...proven.
