    Even his lawyer states he was messed up....

    "My client is a misguided patriot,”

    good point from the PA....

    “There was a very real possibility that we were going to wake up on January 7 in a full-blown constitutional crisis with the federal government in complete chaos,” Mulroe said. “That is what revolution means and that is what he openly perused and that is what he very nearly achieved. "

    Remember her? Sarah Palin reacts to the recent sentences. I mean, it's tough being a good guy these days.

    Sarah Palin On ‘Disheartening’ Jan. 6 Sentences: ‘Makes the Good Guy Think, What’s the Use in Being a Good Guy?’

    I'm certainly not saying that Democrat politicians don't also put party above country (most probably do it sometimes, and some probably do it most times), but the continued reckless attacks by the GOP on the credibility of our legal and government institutions seems so antithetical to protecting our country's future.

    Has anyone ever seen anything like the last 8ish years regarding a political party's core ideology and strategy to be the erosion of faith in our institutions? It becomes hard not to view these efforts as anti-America.

    Lawd yes. Having a former Governor and VP candidate refer to violent rioters as “the good guys” is disturbing and anti-American. Hope she “clarifies” that statement.

    Modern GOP is a nihilistic & authoritarian movement, one dominated by fear, anger, ignorance, conspiracy, cult of personality, and hatred of anything they see as liberal.

    You are a good poster on sports forums. You post nonsense here. Just a reminder that quality is not transferable.

    That is an apt description of what was once a small fraction of the group. It does seem at times as if that fraction has increased - or maybe they just got louder.

    I see it too as more how that fraction has influenced thinking.

    There also just doesn’t seem to be any coherent principled ideology grounding the right.

    Depends. Are anger, resentment and victimhood considered ideologies?
