I think it was patriotic and epic but maybe optics should be considered more next time. For example like if everyone that breached just sat down and started praying inside. They could do this all night and it would stop the wandering around that occurred and allow people to stay in place all night to prevent the vote. If they wanted to clear it out they'd have to use police to pull people off the ground out of prayer and that would have very bad optics. Prayer is a powerful and works as a way to hold ground while making a strong visual display that people sympathize with.

I think having a central sort of optics goal would have been excellent and consider it next time but that's our leaders roll to come up with. Donald and the pundits we listen to on the ground didn't say shit about an optics plan.

I think just being rowdy with flags and maga hats is peaceful but isn't sending the message that is invincible to criticize.
