Sund claimed under oath that he requested the National Guard after speaking to those at the Pentagon, but his request was denied because of "optics".
Nancy Pelosi and Mike Pence were being hunted like dogs, they are the last people who would have declined help that day.
You know perfectly well that optics means politics, which is a steaming pile of horse shit, but you still won't acknowledge that Pelosi DID decline Sund's request for Guard units.
It's like all the people who believe in this fake insurrection nonsense never knew that mobs can get violent, in spite of the fact that violence was plainly visible at every single protest that the media had previously described as "peaceful".
It takes an incredible amount of dishonesty to think that this isn't a blatant double standard; which, once again, is why I hate partisan politics. BOTH sides put politics ahead of this nation, and both sides are incapable of looking at their own glaring deficiencies.
