Ding Dong.....the US Politics Thread (Part 1)

I have no idea what is happening on the inside of the Capitol, but outside, the deranged mob looks relatively peaceful and not up for a real fight.

I don’t see why the GOP is being evacuated. These are their people, no? Let them mingle.

Why was the police not prepared for that? Imagine one dangerous terrorist in between these people with a bomb?

I don’t get it

Trump is probably going to speak and tell the morons to stand down. The GOP will pretend this is fantastic and that Trump will deserve laurels for deescalating something he himself has wrought.

They’re selling postcards of the hanging, they’re painting the passports brown
The beauty parlor is filled with sailors, the circus is in town
Here comes the blind commissioner, they’ve got him in a trance
One hand is tied to the tight-rope walker, the other is in his pants
And the riot squad they’re restless, they need somewhere to go
As lady and I look out tonight, from Desolation Row

There is a reporter from the Huffington Post in the Chamber now, he said they’ve fired shots into the Chamber and Police have barricaded the doors and are trying to de-escalate. From the pictures he posted the Police are massively outnumbered.
