That statement proves you're clueless and ignorant of the events of January 6th, likely the result of listening to and reading MAGA media.

"Capitol riot was 'an insurrection against the Constitution'"
"Romney noted that the mob attack resulted in severe property damage and death.
“I was there,” Romney said. “What happened was a violent effort to interfere with and prevent the constitutional order of installing a new president.”
“As such, it was an insurrection against the Constitution that resulted in severe property damage, severe injuries and death,” he continued.
Romney was one of seven GOP senators to vote to convict former President Trump for inciting the insurrection. He was joined by GOP Sens. Richard Burr (N.C.), Bill Cassidy (La.), Susan Collins (Maine), Lisa Murkowski (Alaska), Ben Sasse (Neb.) and Pat Toomey (Pa.)."

But it doesn't matter how or how many times you talk about it, almost no Republicans see it as an attempt to overthrow the government! They are much more likely to see it as Dem BS. And the more often it is hyped by the Dems, the more often it will be seen as Dem BS.
Romney and his fellow Republicans who voted the same way he did just did so on the basis of "hype"? The reason most Republicans that you refer to see it as hype is because its being whitewashed as such by MAGA media and the Republicans who would prefer to simply "put it behind us." Of the thousands who descended upon the capitol on Jan 6th, 532 have been charged thus far. You and the other Republicans don't know that because MAGA media doesn't report it...

Thus my comment that you may yet learn the real definition of that word......

Before you go spouting about how there were deaths involved trying to justify using the word insurrection keep in mind there were a total of 5 deaths. Five people died either shortly before, during, or after the event: one was shot by Capitol Police (an unarmed woman as I recall), one died of a drug overdose, and three succumbed to natural causes. Insurrection? Hardly......sad? YES......
"at worst there were a bunch of unarmed idiots running around in the capitol acting the fool, some in idiotic costumes as well in a protest gone bad."

"REPUBLICAN PARTY:  LAW AND ORDER:
"In the 28 yrs that Republicans have held office over the last 53 yrs they have had a total of (a drum roll would be more than appropriate), 120 criminal indictments of executive branch officials. 89 criminal convictions and 34 prison sentences handed down. That's more prison sentences than years in office since 1968 for Republicans
In the last 53 years, Democrats have been in the Oval Office for 25 of those years, while Republicans held it for 28. In their 25 yrs in office Democrats had a total of three executive branch officials indicted with one conviction and one prison sentence. That's one whole executive branch official convicted of a crime in two and a half decades of Democrat leadership.
My point is that the Conservative Media tries to convince the American People that the Republican Party is the Party of LAW and Order. To the contrary, Republicans have been caught engaging and being convicted of the most criminal acts as elected officials in the Executive Office."

Biden Gets 4 Pinocchios: Said 2nd Amendment Bans Cannon Ownership

Posted By Rod Kaufman

I can't believe Biden doesn't know you can go out and buy your own cannon. Worse yet, he doesn't know every colonial family had one sticking out of their cabin windows along with a 30 day supply of musket balls. Where the hell has he been? Didn't he watch Mel Gibson in "The Patriot"?
