Jim Acosta Asks Trump If He’ll Apologize Over January 6th, Gets Booed By Crowd, Crowned By Twitter

By

It is actually somewhat shocking, but we don’t recall a single person asking Trump whether he was sorry about January 6th.

Having said that, there are plenty of good reasons why journalists might rather use their time to ask something else. After all, near as we can tell, we remember Trump apologizing once in his life and it was due to the fact that he was six weeks away from an election for president and was caught on tape admitting that he “moved on her like a b*tch” (We truly wonder if guys in a high school locker room would’ve written him off as a freak had he said that as a sophomore back-up defensive end), and that he could just grab women by the “privates.” He sort of apologized, with emphasis on “sort of.”

Given that January 6th was likely one of the proudest days of his life (Crowds, fighting for him! Like medieval Europe!), watching the cannon fodder act like cannon fodder, all for a greater cause – him, what would he feel sorry about? It was one of the greatest moments in American history to Trump, after all, he is America. Ask him.

But Jim Acosta wanted Trump on the record. It is not that Acosta “wanted to know” if Trump was sorry. Acosta surely wanted Trump on record for absolutely not being sorry. Trump didn’t say anything, the crowd said it for him, boooo.

Our brothers at Meidas are correct. The GOP is pro-insurrection, they’re the ones ready to launch another insurrection, just say the word.

The only thing standing between the United States and an internal hot Civil War (one in which the military might break itself in half and fight each other) is the fact that Trump would never in a million years risk his life in an attempt to regain power. Trump desperately wants to depose Biden, toss aside the Constitution, declare himself king of all the land, but people that aim for such goals do so knowing that there is no way to get there from here without a willingness to die for the cause. When one tries to take over a government, it’s a battle, loser loses.

Trump would never do that and thus his followers will never do that. He is not sorry. He is sorry it didn’t work. He is sorry that it might take a while for him to get his full revenge. Until then, he’ll be sorry for every day that goes by without a MAGA asymmetric strike in his name.

Trump has very few things he’s sorry about and the few that exist are limited to horrific things he wishes he’d done with more conviction.

Twitter? Yes, Twitter wants to speak:
