It is like we have been so de-sensitized that we are not even acting outraged. Look at the posts this evening. Attempt to kidnap or kill a sitting Democratic governor. How are we going to protest this act by Trump loyalists? Tonight tomorrow, there needs to be an outpouring of outrage against Trump Republicans. We need a symbol of our collective outrage. I am looking for a Gretchen face mask. What else???

(11,683 posts)I am as aghast as any! But it never ends with the capitulation and conspiring of Rs. We know the origins and pray for the end.
Yes! Mad as hell! There is fire still, but fire inside an inferno may not get much notice. But this is one of the worst atrocity along with what they did to the kids being separated and caged. The latter are Crimes against Humanity. Stevie better find a spider hole because we are coming for him post-election Blue wipe out!

(1,200 posts)It really is. I grew up in that state and it's disgusting. We had Democrat governors before of course. The difference is the wannabe fascist president inciting violence. I know people think nov 3 he is voted out, however these terrorists will be roaming around then too. Then what.

(51,593 posts)The thing that got me was when they read the list of charges. My mouth literally was hanging open. Civil war, forming a new govt, etc. WTF!
Then they said that part of the terrorists anger was over not wanting to wear masks and closing gyms. WTF AGAIN! Then they said you can actually see who they are from when they went into the state capitol with guns last April.
If I could get drunk I would have this morning after watching that when I just got up.

But now I want to know "Why were these terrorists interested in gyms being closed?" After looking at their photos I must say that their personal appearance was not one that would catch the ladies' eyes, at least not this woman. I bet none of these criminals has ever set foot in a gym.

I saw a video report from the State House takeover. One of the female demonstranimals (replete w/ blue hair) was holding the aforementioned "OPEN THE SALONS" sign. This outright murder of irony is in itself a crime. IMO.

(51,593 posts)They sure didn't skimp on the lovely landscaping as well as interior decorating. I live in a 550 sq ft apt on a teacher's salary and my place is The Palace of Versailles compared to that dump.
That was from when it was sold to the terrorists. I can imagine it got a lot more luxurious after those two terrorists decorated it.

(1,291 posts)and it takes time for the mail in ballots to get counted in order to declare a final result, I fear we will see more of these goon squads and the sociopath in chief inciting them.
Hopefully, Trump acting even more insane over the last few weeks will create enough of a margin in enough swing states that it will be decisively over on election night. I really don't want to see the shitstorm finale to 2020 that Trump could create if given half a chance.

(38,493 posts)These fraudhoppers are so indoctrinated by TrumpAnon viral diarrhea that they're primed to commit violence even if Putin's Bagman "wins."

(1,291 posts)I think that pretty much ends it. Trump will babble and a few nuts may act out, however it's over.
But, if it's 9 am Wednesday morning and Florida, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, etc. are saying that they don't know the result because there's tens of thousands of mail in ballots yet to be counted, that's when I think these militia assholes really take to the streets.
Remember the "Brooks Brothers riot" in 2000, when a bunch of Republican protesters showed up at a Miami site that was recounting votes and the disruption stopped the count? I think we could have that on a mass scale, except instead of wearing suits, they'd be wearing camo and carrying assault rifles.
