Not the right person to be doing this, but it's good to see it being done.

The US Capitol Police is a small organization similar to a university police department. They're nothing like a city police department with SWAT teams, etc. and are only responsible for the campus area where the Capitol building resides. From what I saw on the news here in the USA there were around 2,000 Trumpanzees that stormed the Capitol building. So there's no way the Capitol Police could have held them back. But they should have been better prepared by doing something to supplement their small staff, like asking Washington DC police to assist them beforehand. After all, psycho Trump has been inciting violence for a long time. I saw this coming and I live on the other side of the country. Sheesh.

Trump was blocked today by Facebook, Twitter and Instagram because of his crazy rants after his Trumpanzees stormed the US Capitol building. I hope they ban him forever, but I doubt they will because he brings them subscribers. Many are whack jobs, but they are subscribers.
