The closer we get to an indictment of Trump, the closer we get to a domestic terrorist attack?

How many of the hundreds of insurrectionists are now out of jail? Or have served their time?

They fell for Trump's lies once. They would probably fall for it again?

The Boogaloo Bois are making noise about seeking revenge for the raid upon Mar-a-Lago. Whether or not these violent scofflaws will resort to violence, no one knows. But they have done it before.

Trump is a desperate man and the closer he gets to an indictment, the more he will call for violence against his enemies. That's the only game he knows.

Hopefully, both federal and state authorities will be prepared.

The risk of terrorism should Not be a consideration in any level of decision making regarding the prosecution of the crimes of the Trump administration.

Personally, I believe most of the cultists are cowards through and through. They will whine and bitch but they know they endanger they jobs and businesses, their toys in the yard, and their freedom if they go too far.

Still plenty of on the edge whackjobs though.

The insurrectionists were give (for the most part) a slap on the wrist. They are traitors and should face harsh penalties, if not death.

They think they are too smart to get caught. They think they serve up “justice”. I think they need a total disruption of their miserable delusional lives.

I don’t know how we got here but clearly, the orange guy, fake news (Fox, etc), and the internet play major roles.

The malcontents have banded together (thanks to the orange guy). They hate black people, brown people, Asian people, gay people, Jewish people, Muslims and anyone that doesn’t agree with them.

For the most part, they are short on education, financial resources, and social skills. They blame their situation on someone (anyone) else. They are loud and vexatious people, they resort to threats and violence because it’s all they know. They take false pride in their rhetoric. They are goops and ogres.

Then there are the Tucker Carlsons, the Kellyanne Conways,the Ron DeSantis’ and Kari Lakes. Well known liars of all kinds. What is their motivation? Money.

Americans are better and smarter than this. It’s time for the rest of us to stand up and be heard.
