He's backing RINO McCarthy instead of Andy Biggs, and tells others to "stand down" over attacking McCarthy.
Why? Is he losing touch with reality?

I'll still gladly vote for him, but I have no faith in the 2024 election after the broken 2022 midterms.

...but any sane man shares your concerns about election integrity. That's based on the general principle of observing 'Crat infamy - whatever you suspect is going on, the reality is always much MUCH WORSE!!

I think it will be a matter of time before people will have had enough of with this nonsense. But, it won’t end peacefully.

Resorting to violence in political warfare is an admission of defeat. Humiliating. I am glad those who participated are going to prison. I am sorry that ONLY SOME of the most deserving are going to prison - many in the government should probably be going as well - FBI, DC cops, Capital LEOs, Pelosi, Wray et al.

Not to be a conspiracy theorist, but recent evidence has convinced me that some of the rioters were not real Trump supporters.
All J6 did was convince me to avoid protests all together. Yes, those who did engage in the riots were in the wrong. But, knowing how easy it is to disguise certain groups as Trump supporters, how can we tell if it's really them?
I don't know for sure. I've never engaged in a protest, and I surely will stay out of future ones.
Unfortunately, not everyone learns from the mistakes of others. Stupidity just happens. There is no cure for that.

The rioters all seemed to be rioting for psychological reasons, not ideological ones, so it was NOT a planned insurrection. The protest was planned, but the violence erupted spontaneously from the kooks in the midst of the peaceful protesters.
The mistakes that DJT made relative to that whole debacle were in failing to anticipate what might happen or reckon effectively with the political consequences. The trigger or opportunity for the violence was a political protest, but it was not the violoent people's motive to change anything thereby - just to "party" in their own sick way. To throw a collective "tantrum". To act out psychotic rage. Machiavelli would likely have covered his face and shaken his head watching it unfold.
In one sense, having no political experience made DJT vulnerable to making bush-league errors like that one. He failed to think strategically when he encouraged people to protest but was not energetic or clear enough about discouraging/disavowing violence.

The TEA Party movement was not a protest, it was a reform movement that worked very well. That is an example of well-invested time and resources, not a protest march on DC.
