So I guess the plan for a last minute resignation and Pence then to pardon the Trump clan is pretty much dead in the water :)

Odds on trump pardoning all those arrested yesterday as it's an area under federal law??

Americans stuck with 2 problems. 1. The Russia investigation for the 2016 election (which benefitted Trump) introduced the concept of electoral interference/manipulation on a large scale. 2. The variance in the way 52 states allow votes to be cast and counted allow for the fears/insecurities...

Having used curfew etc. to get new infection numbers down here we've now got the inevitable Xmas "rules relaxation" spike as new infections apparently up over 300% over last few days.

That and how they are playing to the huge numbers of Republican voters who believe there was a fraud of some description. Becomes self-perpetuating as these doubters now validate their viewpoint by saying the President and large numbers of Congress agree with them.

Powerful from Romney. Will these few Republicans still insist on disrupting the confirmation process?

Need to be thankful the gun laws are severe in Washington. Certain different states and it could have been a bloodbath

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump These are the things and events that happen when a sacred landslide election victory is so unceremoniously & viciously stripped away from great patriots who have been badly & unfairly treated for so long. Go home with love & in peace. Remember this day forever...

Even George Bush makes a statement calling it an insurrection

Probably not enough time to invoke 25th Amendment to prevent further trouble between now and the inauguration

CNN reporting Trump had to be "persuaded" to finally make that video and let the National Guard be sent in. Was "content" to let it run to highlight how the people felt cheated and betrayed !!!
