phillysailor 3,436 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 On 1/16/2022 at 6:35 PM, The Joker said: Interesting tidbit I’m assuming very few on here will enjoy reading When it comes to Trump, in fact, the indictment includes a message from Rhodes that actually seems to cut against any potential entanglement by the former president in the conspiracy. At 1:30 p.m. on Jan. 6, just after rioters began storming the Capitol, Rhodes texted on Signal, “All I see Trump doing is complaining. I see no intent by him to do anything. So the patriots are taking it into their own hands. They’ve had enough.” This certainly doesn’t sound like a message from someone who had been plotting with Trump or was waiting for his signal to start smashing windows. I don't think a single message by a single conspirator who has been charged with seditious conspiracy can be used to exonerate other members of the conspiracy. First off, there was no duty by Rhodes to be truthful in this message, perhaps it was just a leader motivating his troops. "Need to know" and all that. Secondly, Rhodes obviously expected more of Trump. Why? Conspiracies do not always work, but Rhodes certainly seems to have an expectation that Trump would respond favorably to a violent assault on the Capitol, dovetailing his presidential efforts with those of the Oath Keepers. It speaks volumes that the leader of a squad engaged in domestic terrorism did not expect to be rapidly and forcefully opposed by the President of the United States. Rhodes was DISAPPOINTED by Trump's inaction and complaints. The leader of the seditious conspirators didn't think he was getting enough support from the president! Joker isn't at all perturbed by this dereliction of duty, he's just ignoring it, and he's observing that there is, as yet, no direct evidence yet made public that the groups were actively coordinating efforts. Fuck you, Joker, for giving the ex-president a pass on failing to defend our nation, and being pretty much ok with a terrorist being disappointed by his failure to take timely advantage of the insurrection. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It speaks volumes that the leader of a squad engaged in domestic terrorism did not expect to be rapidly and forcefully opposed by the President of the United States. Rhodes was DISAPPOINTED by Trump's inaction and complaints. The leader of the seditious conspirators didn't think he was getting enough support from the president! Joker isn't at all perturbed by this dereliction of duty, he's just ignoring it, and he's observing that there is, as yet, no direct evidence yet made public that the groups were actively coordinating efforts. Fuck you, Joker, for giving the ex-president a pass on failing to defend our nation, and being pretty much ok with a terrorist being disappointed by his failure to take timely advantage of the insurrection.

Bus Driver 6,890 Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 On 1/16/2022 at 6:35 PM, The Joker said: Interesting tidbit I’m assuming very few on here will enjoy reading When it comes to Trump, in fact, the indictment includes a message from Rhodes that actually seems to cut against any potential entanglement by the former president in the conspiracy. At 1:30 p.m. on Jan. 6, just after rioters began storming the Capitol, Rhodes texted on Signal, “All I see Trump doing is complaining. I see no intent by him to do anything. So the patriots are taking it into their own hands. They’ve had enough.” This certainly doesn’t sound like a message from someone who had been plotting with Trump or was waiting for his signal to start smashing windows. This is EXACTLY what I am referring to when I say you are loyal in your defense of the defeated ex-President. You go out of your way to find ways to minimize, downplay, dismiss, and gloss over any criticism. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And we also know that the insurrectionists themselves are all pissed off at him for being a lazy coward and not helping them. I'm sure one could make a plea that NOT HELPING the insurrection (merely conspiring to launch it) is the same thing as "defending the Constitution" but it really doesn't seem valid... to me, at least. It's clear that Trump had channels of communication to the various 'militia' leaders. He could have messaged them at any time, something along the lines of "turn it down a little, less cop-killing" or ANYthing resembling a dissuasion from full-on trial by combat. Could have, but didn't. - DSK Quote Link to post Share on other sites

You can endorse the musings of a man accused of seditious conspiracy, I remain skeptical. And I see that you remain unperturbed by the Oath Keepers feeling betrayed by the former President’s failure to support them more vigorously. Also, you don’t say why you think my feelings were hurt when you quoted that article. Did you try to hurt feelings when you wrote that post, were you doing your best to “own a lib”? I’m just surprised you think you can have an emotional impact on others by quoting a domestic terrorist expressing disappointment in Trump’s timidity to fulfill plans to overthrow the government. Seems both you and the terrorists are pretty much consumed by emotional confusion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Pertinacious Tom 1,923 Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 The Nincomcoup Was Pitifully Inept And Ineffectual Quote ... The plan, evidently, was to "scare the shit" out of Congress with a show of force that would persuade legislators to reject electoral votes for Biden. But in the end, the Oath Keepers merely joined a riot that was already in progress, and the riot itself accomplished nothing but an interruption that delayed ratification of Biden's victory until that night. It obviously could have been much worse. If Oath Keepers had attacked the Capitol with guns, there could have been bloodshed on both sides, although that still would not have compelled Congress to do what Rhodes wanted. The sedition charges do not require that the defendants had any realistic hope of success. Assuming the allegations are true, Rhodes et al. did indeed conspire to use force to "prevent, hinder, or delay" the execution of Congress' constitutional and statutory obligations to certify the election results. And in addition to the sedition counts, which are punishable by up to 20 years in prison, the defendants face various other charges, including conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding, assault, destruction of government property, interference with law enforcement, and tampering with evidence (mainly by erasing incriminating data on their cellphones). The Justice Department estimates that as many as 2,500 people may ultimately face charges in connection with the Capitol riot. Most of them will be more like Gonzalez, the "Capitol Doobie Smoker," than Rhodes and his followers, who had ambitious but inept plans that ultimately amounted to little more than a sideshow in a much broader spasm of vandalism and violence that was itself utterly futile. When former President Jimmy Carter claims the assault on the Capitol "almost succeeded in preventing the democratic transfer of power," he is giving blowhards like Rhodes way too much credit.
