In New Hampshire yesterday, former president Trump met with convicted January 6 Capitol rioter, Micki Larson-Olson, praising her and giving her a hug before signing her backpack.

Micki Larson-Olson, who was sentenced to 180 days in jail for her role in the January 6 insurrection, is unrepentant for her actions and continues to call for the execution of anyone who certified the 2020 election. She believes in the admiralty law, a bizarre conspiracy theory pushed by the so-called "sovereign citizen" movement, which holds that the United States was secretly replaced with a private corporation in the 19th century and that individual people can legally declare themselves their own government and be immune from laws.

Trump told her: "Listen, you just hang in there. You guys are gonna be okay. You just take care of yourself. You've been through too much. You're going to wind up being happy."

That's the leader of the republican party, the presumed 2024 republican presidential nominee, hugging and praising a woman who still calls for the execution of members of Congress. And 70 million Americans will vote to make him president again.

Unbelievable.

Unbelievable. And very very frightening!! This doesn't represent a fringe movement but a substantial part of our populace. What has happened to us!

My 2 cents...

The ability to think critically is becoming rarer and rarer, without this skill you are easily bamboozled, and once you've been down bamboozle lane it's difficult to find your way back...

"One of the saddest lessons of history is this:
If we've been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject
any evidence of the bamboozle. We're no longer interested
in finding the truth. The bamboozle has captured us.
It's simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves,
that we've been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you,
you almost never get it back." ~Carl Sagan

HIs level of disloyalty has sucked all his life.

He didn't help with legal bills for any of the 'protestors' on 1/6.

At very least if he wants my respect, he can pay tickets for them to go to Paris and riot with the French people who are angry about getting what I said they'd get years ago, and that they richly deserve.
