How does the fascist caucus (Cruz et al) spin this to try to avoid blame?

This is quite depressing. We are living in dark days.
There's a tiny, tiny hopeful part of me that says you guys are running a Kaufmanesque long con on the board

Re: The Election Thread To Talk About The Election
Maybe I'm misunderstanding you. I just mean Cruz et al might try to spin today's events as "peaceful" protest in the interest of election "fairness". I don't think they can avoid blame for today's mess though.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑06 Jan 2021, 5:41pmAt the risk of losing their and their allies' support?Kimmelweck wrote: ↑06 Jan 2021, 5:38pmProbably by playing the victim, just like Trump.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑06 Jan 2021, 5:35pmHow does the fascist caucus (Cruz et al) spin this to try to avoid blame?

Yup. I've seen some horseshit that these guys have hammer and sickle tattoos. They all love to talk about 2A and 1776 and all that until their side actually does it, and then "Oh my! It's not us!" Own it, assholes.Silent Majority wrote: ↑06 Jan 2021, 6:23pmThey're going to say that it was antifa in Maga clothing.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑06 Jan 2021, 5:35pmHow does the fascist caucus (Cruz et al) spin this to try to avoid blame?
Apparently, their aim is to occupy the Capitol thru the night. Maybe they figure if the 6 January confirmation of the EC votes passes, the election is void?

Re: The Election Thread To Talk About The Election
The problem is that Cruz and all the other swine who want to run in 2024 are courting these fascists, so they can't fully condemn them. But it's a serious problem to be seen as with them. So they're in a tough spot, ambition-wise.Kimmelweck wrote: ↑06 Jan 2021, 6:17pmMaybe I'm misunderstanding you.
