Tomorrow morning, my cleaning lady comes and I know she's going to ask me to explain what happened in Washington today. I can't wait to hear what I'm going to tell her because right now, it's quite difficult to grasp.
This evening, I've been watching the alternating House/Senate coverage and heard some pretty fine speeches from politicians who never gave me much reason to respect them before.
I have learned this: If you want to riot and smash windows in this country, you'd better be white. If the same actions had been done in the name of Black Lives Matter, most of those pro-Trump protestors would have been sitting home wishing the police would just start shooting those damn rioters. There would at least have been a lot more arrests.
And those pro-Trump protestors sure shot themselves…in their feet. Their mission was to persuade legislators to vote for all the objections but their actions caused there to be fewer objections and less support for them.
But hey, wouldn't you love to know what they're saying in the White House tonight? Twitter probably did Trump a great favor by closing down his account.
I'm going back to watching the news. This is a day this nation will never forget.
