THERE’s NO UNITY WITHOUT ACCOUNTABILITY

#Republicans threaten violence if Trump faces repercussions — but it was impunity that moved his mob

#Trump incited violence, #GOP-ers enabled and participated in his crimes

The flaws in this let-the-terrorists win argument should be immediately evident

Trump supporters already violently tried to overthrow the government — not because Trump was impeached, but because they reject the results of a democratic election and believe he should be illegally

Republican logic would suggest that democracy itself should be thrown out because a small number of bullies demand it. They certainly wouldn't accept this logic if foreign terrorists attacked the U.S. Capitol, and so it shouldn't be taken seriously now.

LIKE 9/11

ENTITLEMENT

There is no evidence that the mayhem was caused because of anger over Trump facing consequences for any of his numerous corrupt or criminal acts.

On the contrary, the overwhelming evidence shows that impunity fueled the Capitol riot.

The insurrectionists were confident they would never face a single, solitary consequence has been one of the most remarkable — and remarked upon — aspects of this entire ordeal. Very few covered their faces, many photographed and live-streamed the event
