Ok I'm back at the hotel. Here's my position: I have never and would never condone violence.

The vast majority of the people there didn't know what happened inside. That's just reality. I didn't even really know what was happening at first because I thought there were going...

...to be more speakers on the capital steps. It's why I went in the first place. When I got closer and realized what was happening, it seemed like harmless civil disobedience. And it didn't really surprise me all that much. More on that in a second. But first...

This brings me to my next point: If you did not condemn BLM or Antifa, I don't give a flying fuck what you think about this.

If you didn't condemn them when they hurled homophobic slurs at my friends, when a mob of them chased us in Dallas....

...when they literally shot a man for being a Trump supporter in Portland, when people died in the CHAZ...if you did not condemn any of that, the looting, the rioting, the violence, the intimidation, then listen close:

I do not give a flying fuck what you think.

Trump supporters are people who have been put down, demeaned, called stupid, ridiculed, censored, fired from their jobs, censored, called racist, deplatformed, harassed, assaulted, and more for the past 5 years.

How far do you think you can push people before they do something?

These are people who have very legitimate questions about the election and who love their county. For having those questions, they are called conspiracy theorists. The leadership on this issue has been piss poor at best, from both Republicans and Democrats.

Given all of that, there was something truly glorious about the PEACEFUL parts of today.

I'll be discussing more of my thoughts around 7pm eastern on my channel. I'll get the stream set up as soon as I eat and a bit of time to reflect: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCGTrP78wxs0OmJVxsDInVFw
