Sad his death did not straighten out her head and heart
All for trump
A supporter of the US president who was arrested at the Capitol riot was said to have died by suicide.

A medical examiner in Fulton County, Atlanta, ruled on Tuesday that the death of Christopher Stanton Georgia was by suicide, confirming earlier reports.

The 53-year-old was also said to have suffered a “gunshot wound to the chest”, the medical examiner said.

Georgia, who was said to have been a regional portfolio manager at a North Carolina bank, was arrested in Washington DC on Wednesday evening after taking part in the riot on the Capitol.

Edit to add his wife is a big nutter updated 1/14 claims MAGA is being set up

Got nothing here....no empathy, no sympathy, no remorse about either one too...

People like this, cowards, who after they are caught get despondent about facing the consequences of their actions, I can't get too exercised about their demise.

Addition by subtraction once more.

He stormed the Capitol thinking it would reverse the election... only to find out that his dear orange leader tucked tail and ran, the revolution fizzled, and his own ass was headed to prison. Gotta be mighty delating.

Maybe trump will pull a jim jones and lead all the crazies to do away with themselves for fear of no guns, or fear of antifa or something. No kool-aid needed....koolaid's all drunk up!

ago but there are usually multiple threads on a topic on DU so you shouldn’t feel you must delete it unless you want to.

If you’d searched the site for his name, some of those threads may have shown up.

Since this isn't the LBN forum, I believe that "duplicates" are allowed. I'm glad it was posted. But it appears that the OP is going to self-delete. 👎😟

Incredible that so many people with have been seduced by such fringe, extremist cults. He clearly didn't want to go to jail and deal with the reality of being everything that he is against.

They probably thought they were being patriotic and would be honored for their bravery. Instead, they were delusional and will likely face 10 years in Federal jail, while Trump disavows them and gets to retire to a quiet life at Mar-a-Lago.

Lock him up.

His death has not knocked her back to reality
Will she use him as a martyr for the red hats?

Kelley Georgia, who goes by Kelley Edles online, is claiming that protests planned ahead of Joe Biden's inauguration in DC are a "set-up" organized by "the left."
Georgia's wife shared this alert to Twitter
"RED ALERT! Do NOT attend any event that is calling for a 'March on the Capitol' on Jan 17th!!!," she wrote on Twitter.
"I repeat DO NOT Attend this!!! I believe this may be organized by the left to setup patriots!!! Even the flyer has communist symbolism on it. DO NOT attend!"
