How many times have you insisted that Trump attempted to overturn the election with a "violent insurrection"?  Where are you backpedaling too now?
Third world?  What about China, Russia, Iran, etc.?  What's your point?

You could get this so easily if you would stop assuming you're smarter than me.
You may be smarter in a general sense, but I know something you don't.  I have something to teach you.  But you don't want to learn from me.  You just want to try to find problems in my statements, just like the Pharisees and Saducees did to Jesus.  Not that I'm anything like Jesus, but you're exactly like those other guys.
Listen. I am not backpedaling.  I was speaking about what could happen in the future.  Regardless of what you think happened on January 6, it won't happen exactly that way again. If you have people in power who actually respect election results, nothing like January 6 will happen.  If you don't, something similar to, but not identical to, Jan 6 will happen.

Stop talking down to people like you know something and we know nothing. You have nothing to teach any of us. I don't say that because I don't like differing opinions, I say it because your holier than thou attitude makes anything you say null and void. 

My mom always says you can say something right (factual or correct) but if you say it with the wrong attitude nobody will care. Or if you apologize with a wrong attitude it's not really an apology. 

How you speak to people is just as important as what you say.
