A reason to trigger the Insurrection Act and stop the 2026 Elections.

I'm convinced that what is what he was trying to do on Jan 6 2021, but the cops were patient and did not begin shooting folks which would have given Trump the optics and excuses he needed to find a reason to delay the certification.

I'm so proudd of the left for the patience that has been shown so far (really? Frog costumes), and hope that we continue to fight in the courts and at the ballot box. Patience.
