You Know the MAGA deplorables will return to Washington on January 19

It's already out there. So will there be preparation this time? How is that going to be handled? That's why Trump has to be removed from office this week, as quickly as it can get done. They are planning to attack the inauguration and there are a lot of deep consequences that could be developing. Who's in charge?

And will be deployed until after the inauguration. Also, they aren’t about to let protesters, rioters..anyone within a mile of the Inauguration site.

It won’t be just capital police, but SS, FBI and guard troops. We’re talking about the president

"We're talking about the president."

Didn't IQ45 say he was going to march with them yesterday? But he did not!
Was it because he's lazy - or..........
If he went the Secret Service would be with him.
THAT would create a totally different scenario once they got to the Capitol.
Arrangements would have to be made (with SS support and coverage) if they were to enter the building.
If he had been there they probably could NOT go into the building - thus NO disruption.

I know - "out there" for conspiracy, right?
But then again...........

If HE goes - they do not "break in."
If HE does not go - all hell can (and does) break lose.

If you've watched lately, Trump needs help getting up steps, into the helecopter, coming off the gangway of Air Force one. There are fewer and fewer photographs of his fat butt and belly walking around. Hes always got someone with him on the golf course.

But, since the justice department is responsible for the security of the federal buildings, he knew they weren't covering the capitol and he knew if he went, the secret service, trained to do their job, would have stopped any illegal entry into the building.

If the secret service is there, face-identification photography would have given them a comprehensive list of everyone whose face appeared on a camera. The FBI has most of that now anyway and I can't wait until they start hauling in some of the QAnon morons who looked like barbarians off the steppes in the capitol. There were several thousand people there, but far fewer teeth than there would be in a normal crowd that size and it looked like most of them hadn't had a bath in a month.

he had NO INTENTION of going - so.......

Was it because he could not walk that far (hell, we KNOW there's NO chance that he could!)

or,

His "fans" could not break in if he was there.

As HE would say: "Many people are saying.........."

for a reason??? To not give in to the "fear" aspect of it. I'm sure there will be the highest security present for our new President.

Do it as an "Almost Post-COVID" event: Strictly on-line - streaming throughout the world.
Hell, do a crowd soundtrack and claim that it was larger than Bunkerboy's!

Really, because of COVID and the events from yesterday, trash it all and do the swearing-in out at the train station in Wilmington - hold the passing trains for 1/2 hour and the Bidens stay in Wilmington while the White House staff cleans, cleans, and one more time cleans the place, as well as get new silverware to replace what Trump stole on his way out - then a free train ride into DC and his stay in OUR WHITE HOUSE!

I don't care about ANY parade or ceremony - I just want JOE as PRESIDENT and IQ45 gone!

They won’t let that happen again. Look at the reaction to one useless MAGA piece of shit getting shot by an officer defending the House of Representatives doorway, and imagine what would happen if just one Guardsman squeezed the trigger of a .50 M2.

They’re planning on an armed conflict and figure they will have more weapons than any army or so was their boast.
Maybe 100 people will show.
The last time they had a second amendment gathering planned for DC it had to be moved to Virginia because of gun restrictions. They expected thousands ! About a dozen showed up, and wandered aimlessly with their long guns draped over their bodies. Pathetic losers.
