I think a lot of people went yesterday expecting something to go down. Personally I expected an epic street brawl and never in my wildest dreams thought there'd be a full-on occupation of the Capitol building. There was a post on TDW of a guy saying good-bye to his kids, thinking he's going into literal battle and not expecting to come back.
However in battle one expects to have the backing of one's generals. Most people will not fight a battle when their generals start turning the artillery on their own troops, which is now happening with the FBI investigating the occupation of the Capitol building. All those people who were there because Trump wanted them there, who thought they were helping Trump, will go to prison.
The only person who didn't want to fight a battle on the 6th was Trump. It's too bad, because the mob was the one way he could have gotten what he wanted; and it's the one option he refused to take.
With only 1 million mostly unarmed ppl? There was no chance of that doing anything. Realistically speaking, it's a nice show but those aren't numbers you can use to fight a civil war with. They could take the capitol and....then what? Any armed force could take them out and it'll come to that if it comes to civil war. Those 1 million would have been sitting ducks
