Sure, it was a riot, during which rioters broke into the Capitol during the


Final ceremonial confirmation of the pres election, with one goal - to prevent that final certification violently. Complete with calls to lynch the VP if he didn’t go along. So, sure, it was a riotous attempt to prevent our peaceful transition of power for the first time in our history.

In English, we also call that an insurrection. That’s why your cult leader and sovereign finds himself in such a dilemma over this whole “traitors to the country not being eligible for office under the 14A” thingy. I’m not in love with the idea, certainly politically, but this “strict constructionist” court constructed largely on Republican bad faith now, ironically, finds itself between a bit of a rock and a hard place.
