.This is not only the consequence of Trump’s lies which 75% of republicans believe, but it is also the consequence of the silence and complicity of silent cowards like Lindsey Graham as well as the active participation of the sedition caucus in the US Senate and the 2/3 of House Republicans who supported sedition.
This is why President George W Bush responded to the insurrection like this :
Statement by President George W. Bush on Insurrection at the Capitol
"Insurrection could do grave damage to our Nation and reputation. In the United States of America, it is the fundamental responsibility of every patriotic citizen to support the rule of law."
.Laura and I are watching the scenes of mayhem unfolding at the seat of our Nation’s government in disbelief and dismay. It is a sickening and heartbreaking sight. This is how election results are disputed in a banana republic – not our democratic republic. I am appalled by the reckless behavior of some political leaders since the election and by the lack of respect shown today for our institutions, our traditions, and our law enforcement. The violent assault on the Capitol – and disruption of a Constitutionally-mandated meeting of Congress – was undertaken by people whose passions have been inflamed by falsehoods and false hopes. Insurrection could do grave damage to our Nation and reputation. In the United States of America, it is the fundamental responsibility of every patriotic citizen to support the rule of law. To those who are disappointed in the results of the election: Our country is more important than the politics of the moment. Let the officials elected by the people fulfill their duties and represent our voices in peace and safety. May God continue to bless the United States of America.
.
.The responsibility for this lies entirely with the Republican Party.

Sixty two percent of registered voters say that there is not solid evidence of voter fraud whereas thirty one percent of registered voters say that there is solid evidence of voter fraud.
Sixty five percent of republicans say that there is solid evidence of voter fraud whereas only twenty five percent of republicans say that there is not solid evidence of voter fraud.
This is a direct result of Trump’s lies and the Republican Party’s complicity in his lies.

It sure makes me confused about why the violent insurrectionists are only being charged with trespassing ?
Zip tie radicalized Lt Col Brock ? A misdemeanor charge from federal prosecutors ?
These people planned to take Pence and Speaker Pelosi captive, hold a sham trial and execute them. They brought gallows.
Misdemeanors ?
For insurrection and sedition ?
They interfered with Congress performing a constitutionally mandated duty , counting the valid and certified electoral college votes !
