    Even in 2016 it was clear he was a con artist. He literally said in one of the debates that he wouldn’t accept the results of the election if he lost.

      He didn’t respect the results when he won. He saw that he lost the popular vote and cried about it for ages.

      I think everyone expected him to cry fowl when he lost in 2020. I think being a little surprised that he’d go so far as to stage a violent coup is probably understandable.

        Why are we acting like Jan 6th was the only logical reason to be against him by that point?

        Have we just forgotten his presidency? There was already no excuses going into 2020, especially with the COVID deaths.

        If you cry fowl you probably need to see a doctor to get your tear ducts checked out.
