I'm baffled. Half the posts I see about the National Guard are bemoaning how pathetic and cowardly it is that Biden and the democrats are so insecure that they've turned D.C. into a fortress for a virtual inauguration. The other half reiterates how obvious it is that the trap has been set, and the fences are for the inevitable containment and arrests. So, which is it? If Trump is the only person who could have ordered this operation, or command it, and D.C. is at least in part under martial law now, then why are so many people pretending that Biden, Pelosi, or the democrats in general are somehow responsible for this? Pentagon authorized some requests from local D.C. officials, yes, but Trump is the ultimate authority here, as far as I understand. — What am I missing?

Theater..... America is dangerous , damn those white domestic terrorists. Better do the gun grab, police state, Patriot Act 2.0 thingy. Quoting the Mayor of DC, " residents will have to adjust to the new normal as the security and intelligence apparatus is deployed to answer growing domestic threats of terrorism. Stay home, do not come to the inauguration.
They are spinning a narrative. Trump is doing whatever they want so they don't blame him if some hero blows Joe's head off. Joe keeps claiming he's scared and is no doubt asking for more and more security. How can Trump refuse? I wouldn't be one bit surprised if the DS takes a crack at Joe. I don't even think they care if the hit or miss.
