Dear Editor.
The sky is falling! Our very democracy (maybe our constitutional republic?) is at risk! We must never forget the Trump-incited J6 insurrection! The deplorables might actually get their way again! Such high drama…
So it is irrelevant that President Trump told the protestors (a correct term, actually) that they should protest peacefully or not? So we are to believe that President Trump has complete control over every single supporter such that not even one of the hundreds of thousands of supporters would even bring a pen knife or a pen that can be used as a weapon?
Pray tell, how many of the J6 rioters carried a gun? What, an armed insurrection with no arms? The only one shot, and killed, was a lady veteran named Ashli Babbitt… I guess President Trump instructed, in some communique, to not bring weapons to an insurrection? How many of the J6 rioters were rioters? How many of them were goaded by planted FBI agents or others not associated with the protest? How many were invited by uniformed officers to pass through the barriers/barricades?
Thank goodness for the release of video footage of capitol cameras by the Republican-led House or we would have to believe the conclusions of the kangaroo J6 Committee that censored any exculpatory evidence telling a more nuanced story about the “insurrection”. Or is that additional video not valid? How about the group of Oath Keepers who led scared and embattled capitol police officers through an agitated crowd to safety?
I’ve actually attended a Trump rally, but not the one on J6. I have never before been in the presence of such friendly, patriotic, freedom-loving and fun-loving people, all fellow deplorables. I know a couple of J6 attendees who had nothing to do with those causing trouble and violence. The violent ones should be properly prosecuted and given appropriate sentences. There are, however, many now jailed, who have been treated horribly in jail and who did no violence whatsoever, as proven by video footage…
And if an insurrection, why have not one…not one, of the J6 prisoners been convicted on an insurrection charge?
I suspect a radical “voter suppression bill” is deemed one that requires proof of age/citizenship/residency, like as required to buy cigarettes or alcoholic beverages? I guess such bills ARE radical, wanting proof of citizenship from the tens of millions of illegal unvaccinated, unvetted, immigrants (from the ongoing southern border invasion that Biden and Democrats are facilitating) in order to vote in America. Maybe the Democrats who wrote these recent LTEs are unaware that in New York City the mayor and fellow Democrats wanted illegal aliens to vote in their last election? An army of illegals would be millions more Democrat voters, no?
Why did the J6 protest occur? I have not had a lobotomy, yet, so I witnessed what millions of other conscious people witnessed during the 2020 election week (not day). Trump clinchingly led the polls in so many states late into election night, only to have the leads completely erased by stopping the count, then resuming the count many hours later after massive quantities of ‘mail-in ballots’ were ‘found’, all in favor of Biden… This was only one anomaly, of very many more since discovered/revealed, that illegally tampered with a presidential election, making the final result highly suspect.
I guess weaponizing the DOJ and FBI to target and prosecute supporters of a president/movement, along with allowing people to harass Supreme Court Justices and their families at their domicile, arresting peaceful pro-life Catholics at gunpoint at their home, and illegally suppressing information damaging to a candidate (Hunter’s laptop knowingly falsely & deliberately labeled as Russian disinformation) is no threat to democracy? Oh, sorry…that is THIS administration. Sounds like a communist state to me. To complete the stranglehold on America, let’s throw our opponent off the ballot and into jail to protect our democracy.
I know of very many ex-Democrats, after experiencing the Trump & Biden administrations, who have vowed NEVER to vote Democrat again. But, if one still believes killing unborn babies is okay, taxpayer payment for “transgender” surgery is okay, fighting a proxy war against a nuclear weapons-owning superpower is okay, election stealing is okay, open borders, budget busting inflation, mandatory electric vehicles for all, deeming truth or an opposing viewpoint as disinformation to be buried by social media and the mainstream media is all okay, et cetera, then the Democrat Party is your home.
It’s a sham, and a shame, that there are some who still rely on lies, I mean news, from CNN, MSNBC, CBS, or ABC’s The View with Joy Behar & Whoopi Goldberg, where one can be infected with the Trump Derangement Syndrome. Thankfully there are throngs, growing daily, that remember the thriving USA under Trump, and want it back.
Let’s hope that Biden (or whoever is running this country – giggling Kamala?) & his cronies do not lead us into a nuclear war with Russia before his term expires. Then, the Democrats destruction of our country will be complete, and any election won’t matter.
