The riotous mob who forced their way into the U.S. Capitol on January 6th, represent the worst of the American “Right” — a fringe element who claim to be “Patriots” supporting Liberty but who lack the most fundamental self-awareness requisite to represent anything other than its own emotive narcissistic impulses. In fact, those who led that riot — battling police and trashing the Capitol building — were indistinguishable both from the leftist mobs that violently swamped Washington, DC, a few months ago and from those who have wreaked havoc in other urban centers across the nation for the last seven months, largely unabated.
As I have noted previously, the real reason Capitol Police were not prepared for that fringe mob is that all law enforcement agencies expected Trump rally supporters to act like they always have — with civility and respect. Given the upbeat and lawful tenor of ALL previous Trump rallies across our nation over the last four years, there was no reason to believe that a tiny element of last week’s rally attendees, some fraction of 1% of those in attendance, would resort to the riotous thuggery associated with “peaceful” leftist protests. Heretofore that has been the standard modus operandi of so-called “Black Lives Matter” racists and so-called “antifa” fascists. What happened on the Capitol grounds was unprecedented for a Trump rally.
Those who battled with police outside and inside the Capitol building, by both action and appearance, certainly do not represent any even marginally mainstream contingent of conservatives or “Trump supporters.” We know a few of them were leftist agitators, but the majority were NOT.
One casualty of that violence was a Capitol Police officer, Brian Sicknick, though the circumstances of his death are unclear. Another casualty was Ashli Babbitt from San Diego, who was shot by a Capitol Police officer as she attempted to climb through a broken window within the Speaker’s Lobby. Brian Sicknick and Ashli Babbitt had several things in common: They were both American Patriots, they were both military veterans, and they were both Trump supporters.
The self-aggrandizing jackasses who defiled our nation’s Capitol building managed to defile the standing and reputation of every Liberty-loving and law-abiding conservative across our nation. Their obscene actions have demeaned all Americans who have supported Trump administration policies over the last four years. Their narcissistic lack of self-awareness has done more to undermine the long list of Trump administration policy successes and advance the leftist agenda than anything Democrats could have hoped for in their wildest aspirations. The Capitol riot was the most profoundly reckless behavior by those claiming to be “conservatives” that I have witnessed in decades. And the consequences have been and will continue to be devastating.
The Capitol riot met with unequivocal condemnation from conservatives. Of course, there was no such universal condemnation from the Left or its Leftmedia propagandists regarding the burn, loot, and murder mobs across the country over the last seven months. The Demo/Leftmedia Capitol condemnation has, of course, been colossally disproportionate.
As I have written, if not for double standards, Democrats would have no standards — and clearly they have double standards for rioters. But we hold those who represent (or claim to represent) Liberty to a much higher standard.
Donald Trump has been the lightening rod for the Capitol riot, and, by extension, so have ALL genuine conservative Patriots. Trump’s incendiary language regarding election fraud, which has eclipsed the real concern we should all have for the Demos’ bulk-mail balloting strategy, was, arguably, the catalyst that incited this fringe element of rioters. But it is the riotous jackasses and other fringe elements across the nation that identify with their actions that are most directly to blame for the damage inflicted on all conservatives.
Their actions provided the opening for Democrats and their Leftmedia parrots to paint ALL Trump administration supporters with the disgraceful actions of a fringe few, thus branding almost half the nation as riotous thug sympathizers.
Their actions have provided Democrats a smokescreen cover to consolidate power for their legislative agenda. And the Demos will continue to foment more division, anger, and violence, which they will continue to hang around Republican necks ahead of the 2022 midterm elections.
The rioters’ actions are also being used as justification for the BigTech purge of conservatives, the “systemic redlining” of our First Amendment rights.
That is the fallout of the actions of a few hundred riotous Capitol jackasses. It will take time to recover from their idiocy, and that time will be extended by any similar actions of their likeminded ilk across the nation.
Finally, for perspective, here is some good news moving beyond the Capitol riots: Despite all the handwringing about political divisions on the right, that split is over support for Trump, the personality. There is no split over support for the Trump administration considerable policy successes. As Biden and his Democrats endeavor to undo those policies that will have the net effect of further unifying conservatives going into the 2022 midterms.

"House Majority Whip Steve Scalise of Louisiana has undergone surgery and will need further operations, after being shot by a man who opened fire with a rifle on an early morning baseball practice for Republican members of Congress in Alexandria, Va. Scalise was the most seriously injured of four victims of the shootings."
I disagree with the above section of your article. Incendiary language...caused...
If the Commi Bernie Sanders makes incendiary comments and a Democrat attempts to murder due to those comments, it is not Bernie's fault. Nor, is it POTUS Trump's fault if he makes harsh statements on election fraud, the Red Death, economic shutdowns and abortions where someone felt it necessary to attack a person or place.
The Supreme Court's ruling keeps individuals from libel should a person attack or murder another fellow American based on their thoughts from speech by leadership.
For example: Kamala helps bail out murders and looters. Now, if someone attempted to attack her because I wrote what she did, it is not my fault.
Thank you Ma'am, I agree with 99% of your post.
