After inciting a mob of his drooling followers to sack the Capitol, President Donald Trump proved he’s too dangerous to hold office, even if it’s just for another two weeks. But don’t count on his cabinet to do the right thing, not even after the first attack on the Capitol since 1814.“These people are gutless, spineless, chicken-shit, horrifying, boot-lick traitor scum,” Rick Wilson says on The New Abnormal. “Even if Donald Trump had his finger on the trigger and was saying, I'm going to nuke Peoria,’ … these people would not pursue the 25th amendment. Everyone's just fooling themselves.” This was a day that was stupid and pointless as it was dangerous. A day for a thousand self-owns. Molly Jong-Fast wonders why these people are protesting the electoral college when “the greatest irony here is the electoral college is the only thing that gets Republicans in office. And yet they're coming out against it, right? I mean, we'll go to a popular vote. Let's go, bitches!”The crew muses about what would have happened if Mitt Romney had gotten his hands on Ted “Fat Wolverine” Cruz today after shouting at him across the rotunda. Does the shirtless, horned “Q-Shaman” supply Q-Anon with psychedelics that explain why they believe the wacky things they do? How does one wax Roger Stone’s Richard Nixon back tattoo? Is Mike Pence planning on starting his own gang of “Prude Boys” with his new-found free time? And what exactly were those Trumpist morons really trying to accomplish? All of this on this special bonus episode of The New Abnormal. Want more? Become a Beast Inside member to enjoy a limited-run series of bonus interviews from The New Abnormal.

These people, these people will not pursue the 25th Amendment. Everyone is just fooling themselves that think it's going to happen pense is not going to do jack shit. You know, he's trying to skate up the middle right now. I will say that the insurrection is all Donald Trump's fault. This attempted seizure of our seat of legislative governance is Donald Trump's fault. Yes, but there were people who physically open the gates, the Capitol Police matter. We will discuss at some length, I'm sure, at a later time.
But who metaphorically opened those gates? And those are people like Ted Cruz and Marcia Black and Josh Hawley and John and John Kennedy of Louisiana and Ron Johnson of Mitch of Wisconsin. And on and on and on. One hundred and forty members of the fucking House of Representatives, Ted Cruz, Ted Cruz.
I mentioned Fort Wayne earlier in my rant there.
