He threw food! This changes everything!

Hard hitting evidence the committee is providing here. This time they really got him!
focusing on the least important part of today's hearings is certainly one way to downplay everything.
As opposed to pretending like they've had more than enough evidence to convict Trump of various crimes for years but can't do anything just yet...until at least after the next commercial break...
they can and should prosecute him. i'm irritated it's taking this long.

I understand you liked Trump and his policies but I think you just need to come to terms with the fact that he's a complete ****ing lunatic.

Prosecute him for what, exactly?
Election fraud, among other things

You know, that thing he accuses the Democrats of doing all the time.

At some point they just need to rip the bandaid off and do it. No idea what they're waiting on but it just makes them look feckless to sit around.
Merrick Garland sucks.

Trump believed Mike Pence deserved "chants to be hung"

Mike Pence is so much a better human being and better conservative than Trump.

and yet Trump had no problem with Americans chanting "hang Mike Pence" or bringing weapons to the Capitol.

the guy is an embarrassment to every conservative.

would Ronald Reagan ever even think to do what Trump did on 6 January?!?!

whatever copium you need to act like any of this **** is normal or acceptable
It's not normal. It's never happened before. The House has never had a committee hearing where the minority party didn't get to appoint their own members. We've also never hada trial where the defense wasn't allowed to present evidence or question the witnesses.

You should feel bad that you believe this is anything close to the truth or what actually happened on Jan 6th. Stop with the pearl clutching. You are watching a production with very limited truths.

Nope. Try again.

And if you think Trump is guilty of inciting a riot, then I hope you are applying AT LEAST that same criteria to Shumer, Warren, AOC, Waters, etc. for their recent rhetoric.

Asking the Georgia SoS to make sure every vote is counted is not extortion.


I ABSOLUTELY believe Warren and Waters should be charged with incitement
and Schumer for threatening SCOTUS

And do you even know what election fraud is? How did Trump commit election fraud? Did he vote twice? Did he bring a bag of mail-in ballots to a polling station? Did he falsify his voter registration card?

Another lie. Pelosi wouldn't let most Republican House members on the committee. The minority party gets to pick who they want on select committees and that didn't happen in this case. You are pushing a false narrative just like big media.

Wrong. Pelosi wouldn't seat the people McCarthy wanted on the committee because she knew they wouldn't go along with the Soviet show trial.

They why aren't they prosecuting him?



They prefer to persecute him. It gets better ratings.

It's all a show trial and it's completely 1-sided. I would attempt to have an open mind if they actually released to the public all the info from the depositions, etc and didn't so heavily edit the videos of him speaking etc.

Trump acted like an absolute buffoon on the days leading up to and including J6. Regardless of what he thought with the results of the election he came across as irrational and childish, and ultimately proved he lacks what it takes to be a good President by the continued poor choices
in who he chose to hire/believe/coordinate with in people like Powell, Rudy, Lin Wood etc.

That said, this is still just a ridiculous show trial worthy of maybe 5 minutes a day to check in on just to get a laugh in at Liz Cheney. Nothing more, nothing less.

  • President Trump engaged in a massive effort to knowingly spread false and fraudulent information to the American public claiming the 2020 election was stolen from him after his staff investigated the claims and had consistently told him his assertions were false.
  • President Trump then corruptly planned to replace the Acting Attorney General, so that the Department of Justice would support his fake election claims.
  • President Trump then corruptly pressured Vice President Pence to refuse to count certified electoral votes in violation of the US Constitution and the law, and that his lawyer, Eastman, admitted were illegal.
  • President Trump then corruptly pressured state election officials, and state legislators, to change election results.
  • President Trump then instructed his legal team and other Trump associates to have Republicans create false electoral slates and transmit those slates to Congress and the National Archives.
  • President Trump then summoned and assembled a mob in Washington and directed them to march on the US Capitol to stop the peaceful transfer of power, knowing they were armed (see today's testimony).
  • As the violence was underway, President Trump not only ignored multiple pleas for assistance, and failed to take immediate action to stop the violence, and failed instruct his supporters to leave the Capitol, but he targeted the U.S. Vice President.


LOL, you phrased things to sound as bad as you could possibly phrase it, and still nothing in there would last a half hour in court. There is NOTHING THERE. Trump is not likeable, but also STOP OBSESSING OVER HIM. There was nothing illegal in any of those things, even though you spin it as badly as it can sound.

I didn't see the testimony...did she specifically say they were in the limo, or was that just speculated on by the Twitterati that was gleefully watching?

If he was in a SUV and not the Beast limo then it adds more credibility to her claim imo. Sitting in the back of the limo wouldn't make sense.

That's not the way it works, Keef.

The minority has the right to select its members, and Pelosi would only accept people like Cheney who would go along with the farce.

Quote:

According to Hutchinson, Secret Service agent Bobby Engel halted an "irate" Trump's attempt to steer the Beast toward the Capitol to join the throng marching from near the White House, where Trump had addressed a large crowd at the Ellipse to claim the election was "stolen" from him.

Hutchinson testified that immediately after returning to the West Wing from Trump's speech, White House deputy chief of staff for operations Tony Ornato told her about a clash inside the Beast involving Engel and Trump.

Believe what? That he grabbed at a steering wheel? I don't care whether he did or didn't. It makes no difference as to anything in this show trial.

Trump throwing food against the wall in a rage, crazy.
He threw food! This changes everything!

Hard hitting evidence the committee is providing here. This time they really got him!
focusing on the least important part of today's hearings is certainly one way to downplay everything.
As opposed to pretending like they've had more than enough evidence to convict Trump of various crimes for years but can't do anything just yet...until at least after the next commercial break...
they can and should prosecute him. i'm irritated it's taking this long.

I understand you liked Trump and his policies but I think you just need to come to terms with the fact that he's a complete ****ing lunatic.

They why aren't they prosecuting him?



They prefer to persecute him. It gets better ratings.

It's all a show trial and it's completely 1-sided. I would attempt to have an open mind if they actually released to the public all the info from the depositions, etc and didn't so heavily edit the videos of him speaking etc.

Trump acted like an absolute buffoon on the days leading up to and including J6. Regardless of what he thought with the results of the election he came across as irrational and childish, and ultimately proved he lacks what it takes to be a good President by the continued poor choices
in who he chose to hire/believe/coordinate with in people like Powell, Rudy, Lin Wood etc.

That said, this is still just a ridiculous show trial worthy of maybe 5 minutes a day to check in on just to get a laugh in at Liz Cheney. Nothing more, nothing less.

  • President Trump engaged in a massive effort to knowingly spread false and fraudulent information to the American public claiming the 2020 election was stolen from him after his staff investigated the claims and had consistently told him his assertions were false.
  • President Trump then corruptly planned to replace the Acting Attorney General, so that the Department of Justice would support his fake election claims.
  • President Trump then corruptly pressured Vice President Pence to refuse to count certified electoral votes in violation of the US Constitution and the law, and that his lawyer, Eastman, admitted were illegal.
  • President Trump then corruptly pressured state election officials, and state legislators, to change election results.
  • President Trump then instructed his legal team and other Trump associates to have Republicans create false electoral slates and transmit those slates to Congress and the National Archives.
  • President Trump then summoned and assembled a mob in Washington and directed them to march on the US Capitol to stop the peaceful transfer of power, knowing they were armed (see today's testimony).
  • As the violence was underway, President Trump not only ignored multiple pleas for assistance, and failed to take immediate action to stop the violence, and failed instruct his supporters to leave the Capitol, but he targeted the U.S. Vice President.


LOL, you phrased things to sound as bad as you could possibly phrase it, and still nothing in there would last a half hour in court. There is NOTHING THERE. Trump is not likeable, but also STOP OBSESSING OVER HIM. There was nothing illegal in any of those things, even though you spin it as badly as it can sound.
Trump's own lawyer admitted that their actions were illegal (as seen in Greg Jacob's testimony).
We believe progress is made through MORE discussion, not LESS, and we believe that to be true even if the topics are uncomfortable and we occasionally disagree with one another. - TexAgs
The name-calling technique making false associations is a child's game. The propagandist who uses this technique hopes that the audience will reject a person and their argument on this false basis.

You said it added more credibility to her claim. Read your own post. There's no credibility there.
