The media are reporting erroneously on the "Capital Coup".
They are creating a narrative, consciously or not, of a "Democrat vs Republican" story. It is not that at all.
Partisanship should never enter the story.
Of course, there are Republicans that want to defend Donald Trump. But that does not change the reality of what happened on January 6th.
For example, I just heard on CNN, a reporter was asking if delaying the trial until February 8th helped or hurt the GOP? That is the wrong question. They cannot make it a partisan issue. This is above and beyond all politics between Democrats and Republicans, especially those of good faith, that profess to be honorable Americans.
It is to be expected for politicians to try and make everything 'political', but this is a matter that must stand above ordinary politics. Are you listening, Lindsey?
This is about an attempted over-throw of an election and our democracy. This is not about who has a political advantage from one day 'til the next.
The media needs to stay focused on the issue. Do not be distracted by political opportunists looking to cover their asses.
