    IMO the man was exercising his 1st and 2nd amendments until he started with the death threats.

    Glad no one was harmed so "thoughts and prayers" don't apply here.

    Did Schumer meet with this guy (or other organizers) the day before?
    Was Schumer in position to tell this guy to stop, yet he didn't?

    How are they charging him with attempted murder? Seems like an over reach. An attempted murder charge actually involves an attempt to murder i.e. missed gun shot etc. Nothing reported so far seems to justify that charge. Perhaps more likely a criminal threat charge?

    I specifically remember Trump getting on national TV and telling them all to go home - but ok, please continue to justify Schumer's much more direct behavior.

    Was that before or after the "hang Mike Pence" chants?

    Are you talking about Trump waiting hours before telling people on January 6th? Even though a lot of his supporters (including JR.) were texting Meadows insisting that he tell Trump to end this?

    And then he told them that he loved them and they were special? Is that what you're talking about?

    Contrary to what I have seen posted here, fox is broadcasting the prime time special on multiple platforms.

    At least he did something. Show me anywhere Trump directly told people to break and enter the Capitol.

    Perhaps they take both seriously. Don't make bulls*** assumptions.

    Dems incite violence all over the place, then cry crocodile tears to take advantage of a mass murder strictly for the purposes of pushing a gun control agenda. It is the party of hypocrisy.

    Never said he did, so not sure why you brought that up. Why did it take him hours to address his supporters so that the election results could be officially certified? Why did he ignore those closest to him to tell folks to stop?

    After the fact....

    Lol… Next you’ll argue that Trump didn’t open the capital doors for the insurrectionists….

    Why were all those people at the capital on Jan6? Who told them to show up? Trump and company?
