January 6 redux

As limited as Smelly the Orange Clown is, he can track those things that have worked for him in the past and in his mind, January 6, 2021 worked for him. His filthy lackeys committed an act of terror on the legislative branch of government while he watched with glee on the television.

He knows he's the king of a troubled mass afflicted with ginned up anger issues stoked by the media bigots they've listened to over the past 30+ years. Many of them are the drunk in the bar looking for a fight. Even before January 6 he knew the power of his words with the various death threats to elected officials, judges, and popular personalities all made in his name.

With no sense of morality whatsoever, Smelly has added this device of saying "you'd get the death penalty in the old days" to his fake gold-plated toolbox. He's hoping for another January 6. If all he can get are thousands of crank calls from low-intelligence malcontents, he'll take it. But what he really wants is a pageant of violence. Again. Especially now with the worst poll numbers of any president in their first year and with things continuing to not go his way. Nothing would boost his ego more than to show his power by demonstrating that his people love him so much that his people would do anything for him.

It would be great if our elected Democrats referenced January 6 when talking about this. It would serve as a reminder of just how dangerous this sick man is.
