Prior to last Wednesday the Capitol had never been occupied by the domestic terrorist and homegrown enemies of the United States of American. The seat of government had never been defiled by the enemies of the Constitution claiming to be patriots.
It wasn’t strong locks on the doors that keep those enemies out. It was the fact enemies of America were not welcomed into our political parties. The enemies of decency have always been with us, they just hadn’t ever been encouraged and supported by a political party. The thing that kept our democracy running since June 21, 1788, and kept the Capitol un-occupied was the fact that we all agreed that elections sometimes have outcomes that we don’t like. The thing that kept our peace and prosperity since the country’s inception is the idea that we agree on basic questions of civics and common decency.
So when Republican traitors in the DEGOP boarded buses to take part in the coup attempt, they were not fighting for some noble principle. They are fighting for childishness and shortsightedness. They are fighting for their right to be peevish, selfish and stupid.
