    “I go back and forth between thinking Trump is a

cynical asshole like

    Nixon who wouldn’t be that bad (and might even prove

useful) or that

    he’s America’s Hitler,” Vance wrote in

a message to a

 friend in 2016.

    “How’s that for discouraging?”
  
    Just one of the articles mentioning Vance's referring to Trump as
    being like Hitler. Not that Vance would admit to it now,

but it is in

    the public record that he did at one time think that way.

   
    Yeah, and Kamala called Joe a racist bigot during the Dem primary

 debates,

    then she sang his praises once he nominated her VP.
   
    Politics.

  
   Seems "politics" blurs memory. She actually said Joe was *not*

a racist.

 
 LOL! She said, "I do not believe you are a racist", then

proceeded to accuse

 him of racist actions. She condemned him for working with

segregationists in

 the Senate, including choosing one of them to be his life-long

mentor, and

 also blasted him for opposing mandatory busing, which she deemed to be a
 racist position on the issue.
 
 You're all about detecting the unspoken wink-and-nod when it

comes to Trump

 allegedly inciting an insurrection despite actually telling the crowd to
 protest peacefully, but your ability to detect the same when it

comes to a

 Democrat seems conveniently lacking.

 
 Stop it. Did the Secret Service agent lie that he refused Trump's demand
 to be taken to the Capitol? Trump intended to lead the crowd in.
 
 Repeating myself: Trump's speech was TOO LATE.

 
 Repeating myself: Trump told them to protest peacefully BEFORE the crowd
even
 left the Ellipse, before the marched to the Capitol.

 
 What about all those people who went directly to the Capitol with ill
 intent? What about all the people who could have been diverted from
 heading toward Washington if Trump explicitly told them to turn back
 several hours earlier?
 

And there was a bunch of people who weren't even at his speech at the
Ellipse who went to the Capitol first, and led the charge to get in.
Most were Proud Boys.

Well, if they weren't at the Ellipse, then Trump can't possibly be liable for
'inciting' them.

He didn't lead his followers into the Capitol because Secret Service
took him back to the White House. He's not guilty but he's not actuakky
innocent.
