supporters to violent insurrection and an attempted coup.
A sitting President (sic π€·ββοΈ) puts the lives of elected officials in danger because of his lies & rhetoric.
The Speaker of the House must plead with the Pentagon to prevent the sitting President (sic π€·ββοΈ) from both
taking military action against his own people or using the nuclear codes.
175 State Dept officials & lawyers are moved to put out a statement declaring said sitting President (sic π€·ββοΈ) guilty of incitement of insurrectionist violence.
A sitting President (sic π€·ββοΈ) strong-arms
state officials to change the results of an election (participating in a coup).
The military put out a statement prior to said attempted coup refusing to participate.
381,480 Americans have died of Covid19 with 3,000-4,000 dying a day and the sitting President just
doesn't care enough to mention it or do anything to abate it or ease the burden on the states.
This is where we are.
And let's not forget the Republican Senators and members of the House who are participating in the propaganda, the lies, the attempted coup.
And the sitting President's (sic) children who are inciting violence, participating in the lies & propaganda and enriching themselves.
