then charge them as terrorists instead of petty trespassing charges
“We have seen growing evidence that the dangers to our country can come not only across borders but from violence that gathers within,” he said. “There is little cultural overlap between violent extremists abroad and violent extremists at home. But in their disdain for pluralism, in their disregard for human life, in their determination to defile national symbols, they are children of the same foul spirit." He added, "It is our continuing duty to confront them.”
Bush’s words were an indictment not only of the violent MAGA insurrectionists but also, implicitly, of his party that coddles them and the leader whom the 1/6 terrorists wanted to install by force.

I expect an absolute yawner lol.
I think our domestic insurrectionists were put to same by the actual insurrectionists in Kabul a few weeks ago. They really need to up their game. Who’s bright idea was it to not bring firearms? It’s almost like democrats were running it.

I think some will. Criminal conspiracy investigations can take awhile, maybe even years. I also believe murder charges against the conspirators will be on the table since 5 Americans died as a result of their plans.
Most won't be charged as terrorists; specifically the Qless Sheeple who just followed the flock. It's those who came planning to take the Capitol and execute the leadership in a coup attempt who could face terrorism charges, life in prison at ADX Florence or the death penalty.

“Woe to me!” I cried. “I am ruined! For I am a man of unclean lips, and I live among a people of unclean lips, and my eyes have seen the King, the Lord Almighty.”

I wonder if the Trump Republican terrorists will attack the US again?

Just playing the probabilities.
There were any number of large Trump rallies that were absolute yawners with respect to violence. 1/6 was the outlier, not to mention there’s reason to be suspicious of some ‘coordination’ on the part of the feds. Maybe one day we will learn something about the unindicted co-conspirators involved with it. Or not.
In either event, the smart money goes on the yawner.

Yes, I think there are a few nuts out there crazy enough to try. Several have already, but the plots have been broken up before their plans could be executed.
There were multiple terrorist attacks against the US in the Clinton years. Not much was done to stop them until 9/11 even though the military and intelligence communities were very concerned.
All it takes is just one Trumpist white supremacist terrorist to set off a bomb and kill a lot of Americans as their hero Timothy McVeigh did. It only takes one successful attack to create a disaster.
