I’m sure some of the people defending the Capitol were pro Trump. Haven’t some of them lost their jobs because of it. It’ll be a travesty of justice if Trump isn’t impeached over this.

Just watched the footage on Al Jazeera- that mob was brutal. the disorganisation in there was obvious but those vandals meant business and were intent on getting in with brute force. Luckily, they didn't succeed in their occupation but it was a real lesson to the American people. Democracy is fragile and has to be cared for.

I still don’t get how those rioters were able to break into the Capitol building in one of the most security sensitive countries in the world. This morning they were showing some of those people as part of the impeachment trial. The US was on a knife edge at that time with Dodgy Donald in the background.
