    Capitol Chaos

    Watched the unsettling scenes this evening, as hordes of Trumpites swarmed US Capitol in mass demonstration......How does Trump get away with inciting his followers like this - and whose idea was it to protect the building with such a small number of security personnel?

    I knew that his supporters would protest, but this has gone way beyond that. I'd go as far as saying that it's insurrection. All of the Senate members have had to be locked in the basement. Have you seen what they were doing inside the Capitol building? It must be terrifying. Apparently the National Guard have now been called in.

    Glad I don't live over there, It's going to kick off big time I think. Red neck fruit cakes.

    You must be watching something else to me it's live on Sky News and it's a bunch of cold people milling around with their hands in their pockets.

    Trump has asked them to go home.

    Compared to many of the protests we have seen lately both here and in America there's certainly not much happening.

    Perhaps something else is happening later or elsewhere.

    Will they be going on to ransack foot locker later?

    There is some very hysterical reporting of scenes that exist mainly in the reporters head.

    There are far too many of them not wearing masks.

    Doesn't say a lot about security when they can just walk in.

    Trump has turned the country into a joke. The man is a disgrace. America has never been that special. They only show Hollywood or New York or Miami or other wealthy enclaves. Most of it is little better than a third world country. Their cars are on bricks and their homes are on wheels.

    Trump has not asked nor told the idiots to go home, they are there on his instigation, notice no tear gas nor rubber bullets, unlike when the the orange wanted to pose in front of a church holding a bible and those people were doing nothing wrong in any way.

    This is down to Trump and all the snivelling, crawling, pathetic lap dogs who have followed his every whim.

    So far there is one injury, what happens when security tries to clear the morons?

    Try some of the US TV channels, they had cameras inside the building, filming the electoral college count when this kicked off, they are into the floor of the house where politicians had been moments before, they also appear to be trying to gather up paperwork from the desks inside, possibly the dumb schmucks think if they remove the paperwork the vote verification won't happen.

    All of this is the aftermath of the lying, cheating, snivelling low life, who somehow became President of the USA.

    You do get carried away with your invective don't you ?
    and then you get it wrong (again) I have lost count of the number of times I have corrected you, calm down the orange one is going.

    Compared to the riots America has had recently this is definitely no worse.

    It is wrong but America has allowed people to riot and damage property for too long.

    They all seem to be mulling around 20 mins into the curfew and being slowly ushered away but it could get a bit rough at any time but I don’t think the remaining protesters stand much of a chance against the massive amount of police, police moving in on them now

    Imagine had Trump won a second term. I imagine he will just slowly fade away now.

    Trump continued with his rubbish electoral claims even as the invasion was going on, Trump asked the brain dead to turn out, Trump’s own words “ it will be wild” of course nothing to do with him, incidentally I don’t recall you ever correcting my comments, maybe you don’t agree, that doesn’t automatically make you right.

    I Trump had told his cult followers to stay home before the event, I would acknowledge that, but you know very well Trump is behind the chaos, he needs distraction in a dying attempt to cling to power.

    We have watched aggressive protest become mainstream in the US and riots were tolerated for weeks in some states where looting and vandalism was the norm.
    America's politicians have been caught out.

    Our own country had destructive protest which was not universally condemned as it should have been.
    We had disgraceful attempts to overturn democratic votes here we are not any better.

    Anyway, it's bye, bye Donald.

    Let's hope they install Pence before Trump goes, so he can't start a war with Iran.
