Turns out that the perp, that ran into the Capitol Police. was a 25 yr old african american from Indiana.
In reality, the opposite happens. Thousand of Americans sacrificed their lives the past year for Jesus. Kenneth and Barbara Copeland are in a fantasy world. Pragmatic remedies are available for the coronavirus and the flu, yet people like Copeland are warding the public away from them because they feel it's usurping what they expect will be a remedy provided by a divine being that they think sacrifices its life to protect people.
Tim Walberg has the fantasies as Copeland and Trump. Walberg has been a U.S. House member for the state of MI since 2011. GOP congressman on climate change: God will 'take care of it' if it's real Eliza Collins, USA TODAY Published 1:49 p.m. ET June 1, 2017 GOP Rep. Tim Walberg: God will 'take care' of climate change if real excerpt: “Why do I believe that?” he continued. “Well, as a Christian, I believe that there is a creator in God who is much bigger than us. And I’m confident that, if there’s a real problem, he can take care of it.”
After the public believes in those misguided people like Copeland and Trump long enough and their advice finally fails, some of them go violent and attack members of Congress to vent their frustration.
Angry, despondent, powerless: Loyal Trump voters are not coping well with his loss Democracy Corps found that Trump loyalists were "angered most of all by Black Lives Matter and Antifa" By Alex Henderson April 3, 2021 12:00AM (UTC) Angry, despondent, powerless: Loyal Trump voters are not coping well with his loss excerpt: "Democracy Corps found that "the Trump loyalists and Trump-aligned were angry, but also, despondent, feeling powerless and uncertain they will become more involved in politics…. The Trump loyalists and the Trump-aligned are animated about government taking away their freedom and a cancel culture that leaves no place for White Americans and the fear they're losing 'their' country to non-Whites." Democracy Corps also found that "Trump loyalists and the Trump- aligned" were "angered most of all by Black Lives Matter (BLM) and Antifa" and believe those movements "were responsible for a full year of violence in Democratic cities that put White people on the defensive — and was ignored by the media." Meanwhile, Democracy Corps found "the non-Trump conservatives and moderates bloc" to be "marginally smaller but vocal in opposition to Trump's direction and animated by his alienation of non-Republicans, the extremism, the 2nd Amendment and guns, and role of government and more." During the 2020 election, President Joe Biden enjoyed a broad range of support. Everyone from progressive Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York City to prominent conservatives like Cindy McCain, former Sen. Jeff Flake and columnist Mona Charen endorsed him. But diehard Trump voters were bitterly disappointed that he lost the election, and Democracy Corps' focus groups found that they are in a state of total despair."
Trump's protesters in general weren't disgruntled coal miners and farmers from Trump strongholds in rural settings. Many were from suburban areas and some had white collar backgrounds. Capitol riots: Five takeaways from the arrests By Sam Cabral & Roderick Macleod BBC News, Washington Published 8 February Capitol riots: Five takeaways from the arrests excerpt: "1. Ties to right-wing extremist groups were few 2. More rioters came from 'Biden counties' than 'Trump counties' 3. The crowd was not a young one 4. Many of them say Trump motivated them 5. Military members and veterans were involved"
Capitol riots: Five takeaways from the arrests excerpt: "The mob was largely pro-Trump, but they came from all parts of the country. The rioters facing federal charges hail from 41 out of the 50 US states and the District of Columbia, according to the George Washington University extremism tracker. The University of Chicago report finds that most of the insurrectionists came from large urban counties where Joe Biden beat Donald Trump by slim-to-moderate margins in the 2020 election. These counties typically contain big and racially diverse populations. Only a few came from pro-Trump strongholds. "This will come as a surprise to many Biden supporters, who presumably think that the insurrectionists are coming from red counties - rural, almost completely white, and with high unemployment - far from Biden strongholds," said Dr Pape. "This is fundamentally a political movement, one not only centred in "red" parts of the country, but also consisting of pro-Trump supporters who are in the political minority in many places.""
Trump and Bolsonaro share similar attributes that create the same types of problems for themselves . They rely on the same corrupt remedies to try to extricate themselves from their own incompetence. . Opinion | Brazil’s Bolsonaro failed to stop covid-19. Now he may be targeting democracy. Opinion by the Editorial Board April 2, 2021 at 9:00 a.m. EDT https://www.washingtonpost.com/opin...049ae0-9304-11eb-a74e-1f4cf89fd948_story.html excerpt: "BRAZIL IS living through one of the worst spikes of covid-19 infections that the world has yet seen. On Wednesday, it recorded 3,869 deaths, a record that represented almost a third of all the coronavirus fatalities in the world that day. No end to the wave is in sight: Thanks to the stunning incompetence of President Jair Bolsonaro and his government, only 2 percent of Brazilians have been fully vaccinated, and the lockdown measures needed to slow new infections, including from a virulent variant strain that emerged in Brazil, are virtually nonexistent. Instead of fighting the coronavirus, Mr. Bolsonaro appears to be laying the groundwork for another disaster: a political coup against the legislators and voters who could remove him from office. With some in the congress threatening impeachment, and former president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva emerging as a potent challenger in next year’s election, Mr. Bolsonaro this week fired the defense minister, and the top commanders of the army, navy and air force jointly left their positions."
Bolsonaro is utilizing the tactic of Trump that alleges fraud in an upcoming election that he is concerned he will lose. https://www.washingtonpost.com/opin...049ae0-9304-11eb-a74e-1f4cf89fd948_story.html excerpt: Though Brazil’s democratic institutions are relatively strong after more than three decades of consolidation, there is reason for concern. Mr. Bolsonaro has openly expressed his admiration for the military dictatorship that ruled the country in the 1960s and ’70s. An admirer of Donald Trump, he has adopted the former U.S. president’s tactic of warning of fraud in the coming election and demanding that electronic voting systems be replaced with paper ballots. He supported Mr. Trump’s claims of election fraud, and his son, a legislator who visited Washington on the eve of Jan. 6, expressed dismay that the assault on the Capitol did not succeed."
As well, there's no reason for the wealthy to think any other way....... not when they have the middle class & poor folks voting strictly Republican. It defies logic to have these people supporting everything the GOP stands for as far as entitling rich people goes. Meanwhile, rich folks must be laughing their butts off at the notion that the ones making their good fortune possible are the people who are struggling financially just to survive.
Trump calls for boycott of baseball after MLB pulled All-Star game from Georgia after its passage of draconian voting restriction laws. Trump and Carlson lead backlash as MLB pulls All-Star Game from Georgia Former president calls on fans to ‘boycott baseball’ Obama lauds MLB ‘for taking a stand on behalf of voting rights’ Martin Pengelly in New York Sat 3 Apr 2021 10.47 EDT Trump and Carlson lead backlash as MLB pulls All-Star Game from Georgia excerpt: "MLB commissioner Rob Manfred said he had “decided that the best way to demonstrate our values as a sport is by relocating this year’s All-Star Game and MLB draft” from the home of the Atlanta Braves. “Major League Baseball fundamentally supports voting rights for all Americans and opposes restrictions to the ballot box.” The move was not without precedent. In 2016 North Carolina lost the right to host high-profile NCAA college events over a bill which restricted rights for transgender people. On Friday night Carlson, who some say could be a contender for the Republican presidential nomination in 2024 if Trump does not run again, claimed MLB “believes it has veto power over the democratic process”"
