The devil made me do it

 

President Trump dressed him up and sent him to take down the Capitol:

 

 

The attorney for Anthony Chansley, the so-called "Qanon Shaman" who made rounds on social media for his outlandish [horned hat and face paint] outfit during the Capitol riot, is blaming former President Trump for his client's involvement in the riot.

 

"He regrets very, very much having not just been duped by the president, but by being in a position where he allowed that duping to put him in a position to make decisions he should not have made," Albert Watkins, a lawyer for Chansley, told Missouri's NBC-affiliated television station KSDK.

 

Chansley, also known as Jake Angeli, was arrested on Jan. 9 for his role in the riot. At the time, Chansley told NBC News he saw nothing wrong with his actions.

 

The attorney is blaming Trump’s months of election fraud conspiracy theories for the riot and his client’s actions.

 

"What's really curious is the reality that our president, as a matter of public record, invited these individuals, as president, to walk down to the Capitol with him."

The Duper in Chief had struck again

 

Evidently, four years of experience with Trump had not persuaded the "Volk" what a cowardly and undependable twit he was.

 

 

The moral? — If one cannot think for oneself, one will always be someone else's pawn

 

Which, probably evolutionarily, is as things were "meant" to be. For the good of the obediently grass-trimming herd, of course.

 

I am pessimistic about humanity's future — as I watch the equally vacuous surge of Biden's "identity is special" Band now take the American stage.

 

Culturally indicatively, the Lamestream contentedly spreads its sycophant-smarm over this newest spectacle.

 

Dupes all.

 

Fat Cats in Charge gleefully rub their bullion-collecting paws.
