It really hasn't sunk in that Trump's mob was coming to kill *Congress.*

I'm pretty sure there are Republicans who are brushing this off because they're convinced this was no threat to their own lives.

These people are incredibly stupid.
They're still convinced they can somehow harness a voter base that has become little more than a cult devoted to one man. They think one of them will be the heir to Trump.

Incredibly stupid. https://twitter.com/Blazecougar/status/1348137117638135809
That occured to me, too. The MAGA idiots might know Pelosi or McConnell, maybe Cruz ... but they couldn't pick any other member of Congress out of a lineup if you paid them. https://twitter.com/RavenclawConsp/status/1348138222929502208
That mob is their base.

They literally cannot win elections without them. They represent easily half of active Republican voters.

They're riding the tiger. https://twitter.com/macweirdo42/status/1348137069588070402
They turned up for the Presidential race in Georgia, but less of them showed up for the Georgia runoffs.

Dems won those races by what, a single percentage point? 20,000 votes?

That's why their willing to court the madmen would would kill them as soon as vote for them.
AOC is a person of color.

These are the "all y'all (people) look alike" brigade.

I think she'd have good odds. https://twitter.com/ThePretender133/status/1348139036045529090
Pretty much. And the most active, engaged voters on the right are the people who've completely lost their minds.

Their only path to power is by placating madness. https://twitter.com/TBSkyen/status/1348140281816895489
