      No one with a brain ever “questioned” how. History has all the evidence needed

        You cite a very crucial requirement that few people seem to have in abundance of late.

          Republican governed states have the lowest rankings for education, health, and basically every measure of standards of living.

          Poor, angry, uneducated. Trained to hate others, especially and specifically, democrats, lefties, and all things socialized.

          Perfect obedient soldiers.

      People say this to sound cool but they don’t think it through.

      All watching it happen in real time has done is made it more clear that it still makes no sense.

        I agree that it makes no sense, especially if you are a casual observer like so many. But I believe beyond a shadow of a doubt that this was the exact plan from the moment Jan 6 failed.

        Make no mistake, the coup is complete. Nobody did what was necessary to prevent it.
