At least Ford and Carter were viable as Presidents.

Trump was a clown.

McCain is an old-school Republican, who favor the 1%-ers and the giant corporations. I want a Republican like Trump, who favor the working class and small businesses, and don't give handouts to freeloaders. If Mr. Trump himself isn't an option, then I want Ron DeSantis or Kristi Noem.

If you look on Facebook you'll find Trump stans photoshopping pictures of Trump in military garb. As you know Trump, who has never served made fun of McCain, an actual veteren. I find it sad that the "support the troops" crowd want to support someone who makes fun of veterans over veterens.

I still can't wrap my head around this question. Why did millions of people vote for him?

I know about Charles I, obviously……I was speaking in terms of contemporary conditions.

Trump only favors himself and the acolytes who stroke his ego.

I know you know. Everyone knows. If it happened under contemporary conditions it would probably produce the same results. It did last time.

They would probably just think it's too politically incorrect to attack back today, and just not do anything I am guessing?

Maybe I've been spending too much time on Facebook but the false notionthat the US wouldn't retaliate after an atttack for fear of being "politically correct" reminds of me conservative Facebook memes like that.

I happen to love America and its flag.

If Trump would have won, American values would have been threatened.

The stench of all the extra bodies in the extra graves belies the “scam” aspect of this Pandemic.

That's the trick you see. Every conservative accusation is a confession.

Beats me. But she can ride a horse western-style like a pro. And she likes the Sturgis motorcycle rally.

A larp by Q-anon boomers at worst, and a Trump rally at best (there's always lefties damaging property at those things),

it is a god damn f*****g joke to see anyone compare 9/11 to this s**t.

Anyone who believes that s**t is completely uninformed, or has never seen candid video/audio of the planes crashing into WTC on 9/11/2001, WTC collapsing on 9/11, people falling from WTC on 9/11, people running from the collapsing WTC slowly dying from the toxic air they choked on

Similarities.
In both cases the likely intent was to kill congressmen. The target of the flight that crashed in Pennsylvania after a passenger rebellion was believed to be Congress or the White House with Congress more likely.

Differences
As you pointed out massive difference in the amount of death and destruction.
Whatever you might think of 9/11 conspiracy theories the American public has accepted that it was outsiders that did 9/11 compared with Americans who did 1/6. Psychologists can answer to why better than I but it does seem to hurt more is more psychologically damaging when it comes from within.

1/6 was way way more then a larp. The Shaman and other theater have made it too easy to dismiss 1/6. It is too easy to dismiss 1/6 because of what did not happen instead of looking at what came too close to happening. There were members of hardcore domestic terrorist groups in that crowd. For arguments sakes lets say they were delusional role players. What would have happened if somehow the got to the Congressmen or Pence and killed them or put them on trial as part of the “game”? Is that any less bad?

If 9/11 happened today, Biden and Harris would issue a stand-down orders to our servicemen. Just like Democrat mayors issued stand-down orders to our police officers while our cities were getting looted and burned down.

All to further the Democrat agenda to destroy America and turn it into an open-bordered liberal wasteland.
