Even tho this is not the place for Politics, I can't let either, both politic sides slide on this.
Trump did BOTH good and bad things.
It's extreme for Repubs to defend Jan 6. Trump used extreme Rhetoric to try to wrongly tell the Repubs, people, that there was election fraud. Trump tried to get Mike Pence to not certify the election results, as was Mike Pence's, and other's job. Trump's fiery extreme Rhetoric convinced the more crazy, extreme part of the Repubs to as a UNARMED MOB, do the Jan 6 capital riots, that did threaten, try to force Mike Pence to overturn the election.
That was extremely bad, serious. And stupid Repubs still wrongly defend January 6, and still stupidly allow Trump to lead the Repub party, when it is Ben Carson, Ron De Santis, Marc Rubio, Ted Cruz, etc, that should be presidential candidate, leading Repub party.
There is a precedent in USA, that if a president loses reelection, they are done, finished, they dont get to run for reelection after they lose reelection, after the other party's candidate becomes president, and after that president's term ends, runs for reelection.
And the ex president doesn't get to continue to lead the Party. After they fail to win their reelection bid, THEY ARE DONE.
That's the way it's always been. Trump should not run for reelection after Biden's first term, and should not lead the Repub party. He should be done, like all the presidents before him.
That's the stupidity of the Repubs.
The stupidity of the DEMOCRATS:
Trump did some good things.
The 300 rioters were not looting, burning, etc. They were UNARMED.
Was it wrong, bad, just as wrong as the Antifa, BLM riots, etc? HECK YES.
Is it comparable to Pearl Harbor, etc? HECK NO.
Did democracy, freedom die because of Trump, Jan 6? HECK NO.
Did Trump, Jan 6, etc, erode trust in the Democratic system,? HECK YES.
TRUTH, FACT IS BOTH REPUBS AND DEMOCRATS HAVE BEEN STUPID, WRONG OVER, ABOUT JAN 6, ETC.
AND THIS IS FROM A SEMI CONSERVATIVE TO SEMI MODERATE SEMI REPUBLICAN, SEMI CONSTITUTIONALIST, SEMI LIBERTARIAN, SEMI INDEPENDENT, THAT USUALLY SIDES WITH THE REPUBLICANS.
Both parties, and both sides, and posters, posting about this, should stop the STUPIDITY, their WRONG stance, etc, over, about this issue, Jan 6, Trump, etc.
