Trump threw a party and no one came

Bowman may have the guest list. We should just save a copy of the guests list.

By the way here's a written article about the event with some photos:

Nice. Sadly Trump is still defending the January 6th insurrectionists:

"Our hearts and minds are with the people being persecuted so unfairly relating to the January 6th protest concerning the Rigged Presidential Election," Trump said in a statement released by his Save America PAC on Thursday. "In addition to everything else, it has proven conclusively that we are a two-tiered system of justice. In the end, however, JUSTICE WILL PREVAIL!"

Trump threw a party and no one came. Well, almost no one. I guess that the millions of Trump Sheeples didn't feel it was worth a trip to DC to support the patriots who invaded the Capitol on Jan 6.
Maybe there aren't millions of Trump sheeple any more? I concede that I was wrong when I said that Trump would have been forgotten after half a year but it seems he has lost some clout after three quarters of a year. Sheeple have to be fed frequently or they run away.

Maybe they are tired of what they are being fed by their shepherd?

That may be part of the equation. I think it has more to with the absence of fodder. First, humans, even Trump fans, get tired over time anyway. Exhaustions is always greater after hyper activity. You can keep them exited only for so long but you need fresh excitement. There simply is not enough fresh excitement from Trump to keep his sheeple going.

Donald Trump's main goal? Kill off the Republican establishment. - CNNPolitics
(CNN)For all of Donald Trump's talk about the "fake news" media and supposedly socialist Democrats, his real focus since leaving office has been to cleanse the GOP of those establishment types who didn't fall into lockstep with him during his presidency.

"If we didn't have RINOs, the Republican Party would totally dominate politics," Trump said in a statement via his Save America PAC earlier this month. "The good news is there are far less than there were four years ago—it is a dying breed—but nevertheless, and unfortunately, they still exist!"
https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-won-these-counties-big-his-supporters-question-results-there-n1278653

The trend is symptomatic of the increasingly entrenched idea among the Trump base that elections are rigged and not to be trusted — a lie Trump continues to vigorously promote and which has become a litmus test for GOP officials at all levels of government. A recent CNN poll found that nearly 6-in-10 Republicans say believing this false claim is important to their partisan identity.

The growing trend of unorthodox election reviews "demonstrates that the Big Lie is getting bigger," Jena Griswold, a Democrat who serves as Colorado's secretary of state, told NBC News, referring to Trump's baseless and unceasing claims that massive fraud prevented him from winning a second term. "The threat to democracy is increasing."​

And it is so sad that so many Pubs, including a majority in the "religious right", still defend and support the man who tried to overthrow the election and who has repeatedly acted in an utterly depraved manner so much of the time. How anyone who claims to believe in Jesus can still defend and support Trump is way beyond even the most basic logic and common sense.

I think that the damage that Trump has done to the Republican party will haunt them for a very long time. They could have recovered almost fully with a "Come to Jesus" moment after the insurrection, and it almost looked as if they were going to, but the lowest part of the Trump party dragged them back down. There have been quite a few decent Republicans that have left the party since it is either toe the idiotic pro-Trump line or face shunning and attacks from your fellow Republicans. If the economy rebounds as Covid finally dies down, and it is likely to now that we do have vaccines, even though some are reluctant to use them, the Republicans are apt to lose more seats in the next election instead of gaining them, which the party out of power traditionally does.

You are more optimistic than I am, but I certainly hope you're the one that's correct.
