It Can’t Be Both

The pseudonymous “Bonchie,” who writes at Red State, pens a snarky paragraph which contains a barrel of truth phrased in wisecrack fashion. Hat tip to Ed Driscoll at Instapundit for the link.

If Biden and his party truly believe the government is so all-powerful that any possible rebellion would be put down with ease, then how does that square with their claims that our “democracy” was on the brink of destruction on January 6th because some unarmed people took selfies in Pelosi’s office? Either our system of government is so fragile that a dude in horns and facepaint can threaten its existence, or it’s so untouchable that the government would just nuke anyone who got within a mile of doing any harm to it. Which is it? Because it can’t be both.

We still don’t know which terrified Capitol cop shot Ashli Babbitt - the only person killed on Jan. 6 - who was unarmed.
