What’s going to be the bigger shit show today?

There was no glee from me, and I sure as hell wasn't happy to see people die, whatever you might choose to imply about me, Jolly.
I'm not implying. I'm painting you all with a nice four-inch paintbrush. I can positively hear the chuckles from some of you, as you sit in self-righteous glory, seeing that filth get what they deserve. If it's a horrible story and Trump or his supporters are involved, it is time for some to rejoice. To wallow in the sheer joy of victory. Let the MAGATs hit the floor!
I see this differently. I think it's a very sad day when citizens are so riled up or aggrieved, they storm the Capitol. I have no problem defending the building or the people inside with deadly force. I think that we have not been as aggressive as needed in more than one Washington incident. Same opinion for other cities, such as Portland.
I don't think it's a day to dance around the living room bunker, laughing about a Trump political defeat. I think it's a day to ask one's self, How did we get here?. Sure, there are always nuts on both sides, but Trump exists for a reason and so do the millions of votes that were cast for him. There is also a reason why millions think this last Presidential election was rigged.
Some of you might reflect on how the people in those overwhelmingly red counties feel, and why they voted as they did. But I doubt that most of you will. You're too busy scoring political points and enjoying yourselves...

Nope. THat's not different at all. This part anyway. The difference is, along with the sadness, we have anger directed at the man who did the riling and the enablers that knew better.

How does one account for this other than voting for Hillary? Honest question.

All the protesters/rioters/domestic terrorists (take your pick) got encouragement. What differed is who did the encouraging.

Exactly. The protesters in the US yesterday are no different than those who rioted in the summer.

Bullshit.
Post after joyous post confirms your absolute orgasmic satisfaction at another Trump loss. It doesn't matter why it happened. It doesn't matter who got hurt, who was killed, why people fought down the halls of the Capitol.
It's all about winning. It's all about power. It's all about Trump or his supporters losing. It's all about MAGAT vermin hitting the floor, isn't it? They got what they deserved, didn't they? After all, people who supported or voted for Trump are idiots. Fools. Imbeciles, drooling as they zombie-shuffle to the voting booth.
Enjoy. Wallow in the shattered glass. Blow up the scenes of the Capitol storming and use them for wall decor. Hell, take the sound recording of the agent's weapon, as he kills a woman in the hallway and use it for the ringtone on your phone.
Enjoy. Enjoy the victory.
But while you're patting yourself on the back after your glorious triumph, do a little introspection. Learn that your vicious hate for Trump or anything associated with him is not good for your soul. Hate eats at a man. It makes him less than what he could be...

Obviously, it is central to jon's character that he is a winner. Trump made him feel like a loser. (Weird.) Of coure he is expressing his glee at this.

It didn't need to "sound" like anything for the past four years for Trump supporters to realize they were hated, in the true sense of the word hate. It just was. We all contribute to our own social ideas, but you will never find me feeling shame for supporting Trump, after the hatred I watched on display.

A riot you have now devoted more righteous outrage to than any of the longer lasting and wider spread riots in response to the racism narrative that is at least as nonsensical as Trumpism.

I finally got around to looking at cnn
Boy do they love this
They are reporting 4 deaths in yesterday's deadly riot
Including
"One adult female and two adult males appear to have suffered from separate medical emergencies, which resulted in their deaths. Any loss of life in the District is tragic and our thoughts are with anyone impacted by their loss," Contee said at a news conference Wednesday night.

Yeah, I posted about the 4 deaths yesterday. Or maybe this morning early.
I was about to post again, wondering what the deal was with 3 medical deaths. Seems highly unusual.

You're just wrong Jolly.
Did I want Trump to get his cummupance? Of course. Would I be happy to see him get expunged by his own cabinet? Yes. Or as you might put it, hell to the yes.
But this was an historic stain on the republic. Yesterday I was just angry and sad.

Good job with the emotion feeling. It marks you as a good person. Just like the ridicule and giggles have marked good people on the left for the last four years.

You have always had trouble imagining people different than yourself.
Reminds me when you thought I couldn't possibly be upset watching Notre Dame burn. It was just preening of one sort or another.
