Do The Experts Know What They Are Talking About?

I don’t know how long the two sides have been ready to release their reactions to the indictment of Trump for what happened on January 6th, but as usual, the debate is going right down what has become a too-familiar path.

On the red side, the pro-Trump side, he is being defended for voicing his concerns about a tainted and fraudulent election process, which even if he was wrong, is nothing more than his ‘right’ to exercise ‘free speech.’ You can hear and read this labored attempt to explain the whole thing away right here, courtesy of WaPo.

If you prefer the Fake News analysis of the meaning of this indictment, you can read about how Trump’s attempt to commit a coup against his own government was (thanks God) thwarted by the courage of Mike Pence and now the investigative efforts of Jack Smith.

I’ll ignore the bleating of GOP media noisemakers like Sean Hannity because what would you expect shitheads like him to say? That Jack Smith’s indictment is valid, and correct? As Grandpa would say, ‘gai macht,’ (read: stick it up you’re a**.)

On the other hand, even though they sound more reasonable, the continued attempt by liberals who try to spice up the Fake News by referring to what Trump was doing as planning a ‘coup’ or leading an ‘insurrection’ is nothing more than the continued attempt…
