Peaceful transfer of power? ?No way Trump is going to let that happen if he still has any say in the matter at all, more violence is supposedly planned for the 17th.

I'm still holding to my opinion that the storming of the Capital was the best thing that ever happened for "our" side. It was a bridge too far, a red line crossed, an act that disgusted even many Repugs. It was the most perfect example of why trump and his ilk are so hideous, so deranged and so desperate. We would be a in a very different place right now if Wednesday hadn't happened. And yes, there will be more blood and others will be killed and maimed and it will most likely include members of Congress. It will become apparent how and why the mob was able to access the Capital with so little real resistance and trump and those who are related to him by blood or simply enabled him to the end will be pariahs. The jokers, the so-called patriots and men happy to dress up and scream the injustices that plague them while smearing their own feces on the walls and rampaging the streets and hallways will strike again even as trump's power and influence wanes until it exists only in the darkest corners of the internet. He is very much done but the hate unleashed on America will live on in its various forms for many months, perhaps years, to come. Hate won't be destroyed - it will simply recede back underground from where it came before trump encouraged it to emerge as a tsunami.
