BEST ONE YET!

      Want to know why there was an hours long delay until Trump called in for more security? Why it appeared to be a time lag between incitement, riot and security to meet the attack? Go ahead. Think deeply. Wonder why a sitting President would allow his administration to be under attack? Think why a sitting President would sit there and allow 'his' people to attack others who were also 'his' people? Ponder deeply, because these are questions that appear to have no answer - until one takes in the whole picture and then one sees the power of the evil working that day, the power of the cynicism, the corruption, and worse, it has not stopped yet.

Here is an apparently easy answer. Know why Trump could not be reached and encouraged to send in security to beef up the defenders power? Simple. Shame on us that we did not understand this from the beginning. Wait for it...... He was too busy watching it on live TV and could not pause it so as to make the necessary calls. Hence, the deaths. Hence the shock.

 Hence his achieving yet another record - going to be the first President to be impeached twice!! Should have been convicted on that one, but the same GOP members who voted to still overturn the election results, still back a traitorous President, refused to convict, marched lockstep, good little Nazis, one and all, and enabled this evil and demented caricature of a man to endanger the whole kit and caboodle! Every single one of them should be in the dock along with their master, for they, too, as the good little Nazis they continue to be, followed orders. So did the insurrectionists out there busy beating on the inadequately staffed security forces.. And no, they are not rioters. They are rebels, looking to overthrow this government, this country's democracy, and planned heavily for it. Do not take their plans for this coming week lightly. It can become a true pitched battle between loyal and disloyal troops and people, both literally and figuratively setting the country and the world on fire.

The more I see of the videos, the more I understand how well planned this was. There were security forces who allowed them in, who shared selfies with them. There were heroic forces who fought back, doing their duties, even unto the point of death and injury. The insurrectionists out there were well organized. There were weapons, bombs, distraction techniques, plans to switch tired pushers and heavers to fresh one. There were plans, easily spotted.

 Find the video with the man with a crutch at the head of a heaving mass of maddened mob participants. With that crutch he hit the police defending OUR Capitol. With the crutch he led others to attack with flagpoles, with devices, with anything available - or perhaps with what they were told to bring with them. This man and his fellow rebels knew when to duck and hide, burrowing into the crowd, allowing them to get smacked while they regrouped. And watch the heaving stop on a dime when he raised his crutch horizontally, a signal to halt for the moment. 

Damn them!!! Damn the GOP who were spineless and hypocritical and dangerous for the past five years. Damn Trump for bringing us to this point where he has enough hypnotized, unthinking zombies to actually take part in an insurgency, in an attack on our government - supposedly HIS government. Damn them for the future of fog and danger they have left for us. Damn them to eternity for the harm, the permanent existential harm they have inflicted upon us.

"Stop it. It's over. The election is over,"

A simple statement of fact. An acceptance of reality. Why could this sentence not have been engraved on Trump's miniscule brain, mind, tv screen, prompter - whatever would work. Why? Because it took until yesterday for McCarthy to tell Trump that simple truth. When the demented one ran on, foaming at the mouth, complaining - the gall - that it was antifa!!!! - this from the man who initiated, who planned, who relished, who denied reality at the cost of lives, well, he was told another simple truth.

It's not antifa, it's MAGA. I know. I was there,"

Would that this man had never run. Would that we had not had the Electoral College which gave the popular vote loser the win. Would that we could have erased him and his years of damage and ruin to us, about us. Would that the GOP had retained some semblance of humans, of morality, of courage, of decency and had agreed to throw the man out, to release papers, to testify, to do their damned jobs!! Would that he would have been convicted by the cowardly GOP Senators. Would that he would have been the object of a 25th Amendment. Would that he could and should have been muzzled, leashed, handled well, but he was not. He was enabled, encouraged, even enjoyed and idolized and here we are!

I hope we get thru the next week and two days safely. I hope that we can not only undo the damage he has done, but move on from there. I hope and pray that America returns to her senses, that we unite once again, that people wake up and wonder what the hell had come over them! I hope, I hope, and I hope. Best one yet. I hope.
