So if the January 6th insurrection was normal political discourse, we must be living in a Lewis Carroll world after all. We all saw the events on TV either live or on the news and while I agree that what we saw wasn't everything, it was enough to show the contempt these people had for our Constitution and political system.
Maybe what is sadder is that so many Americans will simply support these anarchists with their votes because they have taken control of their party. Because of our primary system the parties have both fallen victim to angry activists as opposed to the moderate majority.
Political parties need to fix the system that allows for activists to takeover using the primary system. It really is too easy now and it leads to non-representational Government.
