[@garyviehe9365]

Several days before Jan-6, Trump offered Bowser over 10,000 National Guard in order to help maintain a peaceful protest at the Capital. Bowser turned the offer down, in a written statement, stating that her local police were capable of handling any problems. Considering her arrogance, I doubt if she ever said to Trump, 'I should have taken your offer.' Pelosi also turned down the offer, claiming that her Capital police could take care of any problem. YET, they, and all the other radical Dems want to blame Trump for all the problems that followed, who said 'Protest peacefully and Patrioticly.'
