All the fencing and securing of perimeters isnt to keep Congress locked in it's to make sure leftists don't riot and actually storm the capitol when it turns out Trump will be President.
Why fortify DC so heavily if you are worried about Trump supporters? Shouldnt they be deployed to different state capitals where the right wingers live? DC is 95% democrat.
True. The NG aren’t there to protect the members of government from Trump supporters. As we all know actual Trunp supporters don’t destroy cities and commit murder. The NG is there to stop mercs that the DS may use to try to harm or apprehend Trump. NG is also there to snuff out Antifa who are on standby to cause general mayhem (they will be given free reign by the Corrupt DC police) Antifa will react as a result of Trump being announced for a second term or if the inauguration is cancelled due to hard evidence being presented of Biden and others undeniable treason) AND/OR the NG are there to arrest those traitors and prevent them from escaping justice
