Anyhow, as ridiculous as it is to hold a "scream rally" when you lose an election, staging an insurrection is worse, don't you agree?  If every Biden voter has to be branded with skyscream guy, then every Trump voter has to be branded with Stewart Rhodes, right?

That said, it is a funny meme.

Will you knock it off with the faux outrage over the "attempted coup"?  There was no attempted coup.

A coup is when one faction replaces - or tries to replace - a government with a faction of their own choosing.  That is NOT what happened on Jan 6.  The only thing Jan 6 did was delay - NOT prevent, DELAY - the vote certification.  There was NO attempt to remove the government.  Delay, yes.  Remove, no.

Why don't you save your faux outrage for a coup that actually happened?  Biden is not running this country.  Biden thinks he's in Colombia when he's really in Cambodia. Biden's in a dead politician's district and calls her up to the stage.  With the benefit of a teleprompter Biden reads out a website "dee-oh-tee com" instead of "dot com."  Biden takes credit for a Social Security increase (that was instituted as a legally-mandated inflation adjustment) that had nothing to do with him.  I don't know who's presiding over this country but it ain't Presider-in-name-only Biden.

Which means whoever is running this country is doing so without being elected. Unelected and - worse - unaccountable.  That's as unconstitutional as it gets.

If you were half as objectively unbiased as you attempt to pretend to be, you'd pretend to be outraged over that.

The result was a delay.
But if you really think the intent of Trump and his 10,000 closest friends was just to delay for a couple hours, I have oceanfront property in Missouri to sell you.
As for the coup you allege, if this has happened, the successor or successors are all from the same faction as Biden, the faction which the voters chose, and they will be accountable to the same free and fair election in 2024 that Biden would be accountable to if this alleged coup had not taken place.
