January 6 testimony tells chilling tale of democracy hanging by a thread

[BidenPresident]

“We settle our differences at the ballot box.”

Bennie Thompson, chairman of the congressional committee investigating the January 6 attack on the US Capitol, emphasized this article of faith in his opening remarks on Tuesday.

But what followed was a three-hour story about how American democracy, like a rickety old house, creaked and bent and struggled to hold itself together during a thunderstorm of political violence.

There was the tale of an Oval Office meeting that almost ended in fisticuffs. There was testimony from a former true believer in the “big lie” who joined the rampage at the Capitol. There were predictions that if Trump runs again, no one will be safe.

More laughable absurdity. Our Democracy is currently being threatened by a cabal of leftist dumbasses in the Democratic Party of Lying Jackasses. Highest inflation in 40 years. Lowest labor participation rates in decades. Gas prices double of what they were when this douchebag entered office. Threatening our Supreme Court. Making a mockery of our institutions.

Yet, after all this, shrill, low IQ dumbasses still yell "BUT TRUMP!" It's tired. It's moronic. It's boring. It's over. Take your meds. You're going to need them when the Republicans crush the Party of Lying Jackasses in the fall.
