Too Much Fun! Caught in The Media Spotlight: Arizona-to-DC MAGA Trollers "Duck Dynasty" Road Show

Here via Russia Today is an OpEd by an English sociology professor who happened to capture an image from the riots at the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C. with the same group of characters who appeared at the Arizona State House back in November:

I’m not a conspiracy theorist, but how does a bloke in a Chewbacca bikini outwit the nation’s finest and storm the Capitol?   7 Jan, 2021 18:28

It’s hard to believe how the angry mob of Trump supporters managed to do what they did yesterday and the absence of police and security guards. Was this the deep state’s final humiliation of a president it hated?    

I watched the astonishing breaking news from Washington yesterday like billions all over the world, our mouths agape, as the citadel of Western democracy was breached – Capitol Hill falls to the angry mob – and pondered one question. 

In a country that spends about 900 billion dollars a year on security and defence, that has made its name as the (often uninvited) police officer of the world, that loves going into other countries and ‘helping’ prop up one regime over another, or get rid of another it doesn’t like, all in the name of ‘democracy’... how is it possible that a couple of thousand of badly dressed and quite frankly weird folks break into the USA’s centre of power? 

I’m not a political or a historical expert on the USA, but I do love the country. It has always fascinated me – the opportunity, the dream, its brashness and its bollocks – and I especially love Las Vegas.

The USA knows how to put on a good show –  it's what they do best – and yesterday’s was right up there with them.

Because that’s what it was, in my view: a show. A stage-managed event.

EUREKA!  If there's one thing that helps to explain almost everything happening here in Maricopa County, Arizona and America, this is it > Gnostic America with this image of a Trump supporter-QAnon believer speaking to a crowd outside the Maricopa County Recorder's Office when votes were being counted in the 2020 General Election

It’s been two weeks since Trump lost the election to Biden. But he and his followers are still claiming victory. Jeff Sharlet, who has been covering the election for Vanity Fair, credits two Christian-adjacent ideas for these claims.
