Two Coup Day

So.

We started out the day wondering how the Georgia runoff race would end. That seemed to be the biggest news of the day, even though we all knew a bunch of GOP Trump loyalists in Congress were going to raise some objections. The objection thing was annoying but didn't amount to much. Still, it was their way of making a show at some kind of coup. 

So one Georgia race goes to the Dems. My roommate and I leave to run some errands. By the time we get back, Trump supporters have stormed the capitol and tried to do...I dunno, something? They scared people and made a lot of noise. It was illegal and they should be put in jail for it. 

So the Angry Masses Coup kind of overrode the Congress Coup. In the meantime, the second Senate seat went to Georgia as well. 

Republicans no longer run the Senate. Though, they did try to overthrow the government. Twice. In one day. And should be dealt with.
