What do you guys think of this theory?

I am starting to buy it a little

I believe he wouldn’t authorize help for the Capitol and

Wouldn’t approve national guard deployment cause he may have wanted the rabble to take over and prevent vote

I believe for example the helicopter overflying Arlington was waiting for authorization to go in to DC and finally it came through via Pence

St that point I also heard at least three caravans of police/undercover etc heading into dC fast on 66


I guess what I am saying is there was a noticeable delay in response and that coupled with Governor Hogans statement there was a delay in getting approval for national guard units makes me think it was intentional


I hope that makes some sense

Of course all coupled with fact Capitol police did nothing..it’s hard to understand

Anyone who has been around Capitol knows it’s a no bullshit zone

How many people where in this mob? That many that they couldn’t even try to restrain the rioters? Something is fishy

This corroborates. (?)

It’s certainly a big question worth pondering

If it was indeed a coup and Pence, Mitch, Pelosi, etc know it was a coup they really need to get this guy out of there and it’s discouraging that it hasn’t happened

Or maybe it wasn’t

But I do think there are some suspicious elements

Have you seen the video on Trump's Twitter? Seems like they had the gun to his head. Or maybe they made a deal to not 25th him in exchange for cooperation.

Either way Pence, Mitch and Pelosi know they could have been killed yesterday….


That’s got to be all sorts of messed up

I have not watched the video

By either way I mean either through a coup or Trump turning his mob loose on them…

I couldn't even listen for 2 seconds, guess the ban is off…fuck, I really don't want to hear his commentary on ANYTHING

this is related to the scary shit you guys just posted

Pentagon leaders installed as part of Trump purge last month blocked DC National Guard from getting riot gear and ammunition as protesters descended on Capitol.

I just watched it..it’s a weird message…so conciliatory and accepting


Trump has many times given different messages at different times on the same issue

We will see…if he stops tweeting and saying crazy stuff we will have to wonder why…

ok I forced myself through the 2 mins
teleprompter trump

I almost thought for a second he was going to concede, but I think peoples heads would have exploed
He said all the right things, but the source isn't credible

This line kinda shocked me though, I don't think I would have expected him to even say this much
Now, Congress has certified the results. A new administration will be inaugurated on January 20. My focus now turns to ensuring a smooth orderly and seamless transition of power.

that was absolutely a concession speech.  a trumpworld version thereof, but definitely a concession.  there was no talk of "continuing the fight", he said that he tried in court and it didn't work, a new prez will be inaugurated on 1/20 and his focus will be on a peaceful transition.  it's two months too late, but here we are.

the message finally got through to him: you done fucked up bigly, donnie, and if you don't right this ship ASAP what little you have left will go down in flames.  i'm sure the white house knew about the capitol police officer that was on life support (and eventually died)… i'm wondering if that influenced him/those around him.

He was reading a speech written by someone else and adding no Trump ad libs. I think  if any message got through to him, it's that he's in deep legal shit and he's trying to save his ass. I also think there's a good chance the speech was forced/coerced, and drugging him was involved. I also think many of his worshippers will agree with me.

QAnon supporters believed marching on the Capitol could trigger 'The Storm,' an event where they hope Trump's foes will be punished in mass executions

Ginni Thomas also led a campaign to identify and oust federal employees whom she deemed disloyal to Trump. She met with the president at the White House to provide him with a list of names she compiled.

Damn, that's a lot of bacon
