Yes, speculation. But I wouldnt be surprised if names get named.

(16,698 posts)I don't suspect any of them envisioned what happened. I think the expectation was that a small group of people (20 or 30) would somehow breach security and disrupt proceedings at the doors or in the gallery. Because, as you say, they're that stupid.

The ones making this about a power Nancy Pelosi did not have (securing the capitol), who in the same breath say these were 'tourists', and who call the domestic terrorists 'political prisoners', and who are crying about this being a witch hunt to lock up GOP House and Senate members -
They are the dogs done did it. They are welping the loudest.

(9,230 posts)They expected to stop the certification of the election, and see Trump declared the winner. So, they never expected to have their complicity exposed.
My prediction: Dozens of Republican Senators and Representatives will be shown to have had a part in the insurrection. I expect some will actually be indicted.
Of course Senator Graham has that phone call problem that's most likely going to get him indicted.

It's just one of those little things you notice and makes you say, "Hmm..."
