Donald Trump spent months telling people to come to the capital on January 6th, you really gonna try to say that wasn't coordinated in anyway, hell?
But, that's not even what I was talking about, Trump fired generals, and had a whole fake electorate scheme, and there was a behind the scenes coup attempt that the public didn't really know about. That's the part I was saying was coordinated. Jan. 6th was a distract if anything for the real coup plot.
And the only reason it failed is bcz there were a lot of high level officials in the government who wouldn't go along with it.
What is wrong with telling people to come to the capitol? I understand your point, but he didnt do anything illegal or he would have been prosecuted already.
Cost of living where I'm at is getting fucking expensive... I've always had hesitations about it but about how much does a nice rock to live under cost these days?
You'd probably be able to more easily afford a place to live if a) the central bank didn't print 50% of the money supply in recent years and b) if there weren't millions of migrants competing with you for housing or c) people moving near you from places that are being overrun by migrants.
