Had the mob been armed, as they easily could've been, we'd be talking about dead congress critters and cops while patching up bullet holes in the Capital. Instead you have to pretend that an insurrection was planned and executed with flag poles and fire extinguishers as the weapon of choice. Meanwhile you try to downplay what's happening now, days before the actual trigger event will occur, because a guy legitimately trying to kill a Justice over a ruling isn't the same attack on our Sacred Institutions since he's a Lefty attacking a Conservtive.

It was not easy for the mob to be armed.  You can't open carry in DC.  They had to cause general lawlessness first, get the cops distracted, and maybe get some units from DC NG on their side with Trump invoking the Insurrection Act, and then the second wave team was going to bring in the guns.  It wasn't a great plan, and it's pretty clear Trump lost his nerve once Pence started giving orders and the chain of command started following them, but it was a plan.  You just can't see it because you don't want to see it.
