I get this feeling that something is not quite right and I am missing something.

President Trump's speech seemed to telegraph that Pence was not going to uphold his responsibilities under the Constitution. "Mike, do the right thing." He said that several times.

The Patriots were allowed into the Capitol Building and permitted to roam around causing Senators and Congressmen to go hide away ... how did this happen? Seems strange. Surely, the Capitol Police and the Park Police would have anticipated the crowd moving on the Capitol Building and could have easily had barriers in place to block protestor along with sufficient manpower to hold a crowd at bay.

DoD denied use of the 'National Guard' ... DC has its own National Guard units - one of which is a Battalion of Military Police. The DC mayor can call on the DC guard units if necessary without the DoD federalizing the units into active service. Between the Park Police, the Capitol Police and the DC National Guard MP Battalion, there certainly was sufficient manpower available to control a crowd of peaceful Patriots.

Was the whole thing a setup?

Wonder where Pence went and what he is doing tonight for dinner.

That was a hell of a lot more than four busloads of Antifa - although Antifa could have inspired the crowds. Provocateurs.

That was at least several hundred thousand Trump supporters. Biggest crowd yet.

Don't forget, a lot of ex military in the Trump supporter crowd + bigger guys on the front lines generally. Not easily intimidated.

Cops looked scared to me. Trump supporters have been painted as violent racists for years now. That sinks in over time.

There was a lack of police support numbers wise. They were severely outnumbered. Perhaps they were not expecting the crowd to march on Capitol Hill? They should have.

Troops nowhere to be seen. Maybe they deployed to protect the White House:)

Yeah, it could have been a setup.

It could also have been the real deal.

It could also have been a military op. Color revolution tactics is taught by the military.
