My biggest takeaway from last night. The cool and careful laying out of the timeline proved this was not a protest that got out of hand and turned into a riot and finally into an insurrection. It was fueled by organized groups who took up their positions even before the big enchilada started to address the crowd. The plan all along was to be ready to go as soon as the unwitting pawns started to reach the Capitol with their anger stoked by the speakers and T-man himself. Had the plan to delay the election certification not failed, I do not even wish to think of where we might be today.
Thomasina in Tom Stoppard's mind bending time warping play, ARCADIA, observes that when you stir raspberry jam into vanilla pudding it will first swirl in streaks but ultimately will turn the entire pudding pink. If you stir the pudding in the opposite direction, the jam will not separate back out again. --LIFE MOVES ONLY FORWARD--NEVER BACK!--
