It seems donnie threw the Capitol mob under the bus again.

That last speech: I couldn't watch it, but read part of the transcript. He said "no true supporter" could do what they did.

That's gotta piss you off if you're one of them and have more than an ounce of brain. I hope it pisses a lot of them off.

They've got their ammo and their guns and their outfits. What are they supposed to do?

A classic case of "all dressed up and no place to go". Sad.



Seriously, though, I'm glad he said those words, even if he was coerced into saying them. Had he said those words on January 6th, instead of what he said, lives could have been saved.

All I know is if it sounded normal and presidential to DU members, his base hated it. That is a good thing.
