    I may be wrong, but if idiots start throwing the 25th around, you better tell the Capitol Police to fix bayonets.

    While I doubt the 25th would happen, if it did, the MAGA Mob wouldn't do anything substantial.

    What you saw yesterday was pretty much all of the loonies out there who actually believe the election was stolen AND care enough to travel to protest it. And of them, only a percentage actually stormed the Capitol.

    In other words......yesterday we saw the honeypot attract the most diehard Trumpers who would actually do something if Trump were removed from office, and they're a pretty small slice of the MAGA movement, IMO.

      Trump’s worried about legal trouble, not the 25th amendment.

        Interesting

        Mr. Trump initially resisted taping the video, agreeing to do it only after aides pressed him and he appeared to suddenly realize he could face legal risk for prodding the mob, coming shortly after the chief federal prosecutor for Washington left open the possibility of investigating the president for illegally inciting the attack by telling supporters to march on the Capitol and show strength.

        Pat A. Cipollone, the White House counsel, had warned Mr. Trump of just that danger on Wednesday as aides frantically tried to get the president to intervene and publicly call off rioters, which he did only belatedly, reluctantly and halfheartedly.

        “We are looking at all actors, not only the people who went into the building,” Michael R. Sherwin, the U.S. attorney in Washington, told reporters. Asked if that included Mr. Trump, he did not rule it out. “We’re looking at all actors,” he repeated. “If the evidence fits the elements of a crime, they’re going to be charged.”

          @jon-nyc makes sense to me. Even the event was called the “Save America March”

                  But in this case the MAGA Mob would be defending the King.

                    I didn't catch the context on this, but I also saw a clip of Giuliani calling for "trial by combat". WTF?! Who are these people? I'm guessing he's seen game of thrones.

                            Us Canadians stuck around with the old Monarch parents for a couple of more centuries.

                            Then around 1980, we said we'll move out on our own for good. Their name is still on the deed to our land though.
