DW: Donald Trump's final days of chaos

Donald Trump and his supporters are to blame, the mob stormed the American Congress in Washington on Wednesday. In such a situation, power shift should come as soon as possible, Ines Pohl thinks.

Donald Trump's attacks on the democratic system reached a peak point. His statements early Wednesday that continued to repeat the strange plots that the elections he lost two months ago had been stolen, prompted faithful supporters to make an effort for the stamp. There is no doubt that Trump is completely responsible that the crowd of his faithful, white nationalists, the theories of conspiracy theories, and so - called Internet alerts viciously stormed the convention. The United States for generations has been a fan of hope when it came to guarantee democracy and the conclusion of the transition of power, but Trump has made it clear to the world that the US system is also fragile.

Those who beat Donald Trump are also guilty

It is essential to note that this problem was not created by Donald Trump and his bombistic style. Those who defeated Trump, who tamed his rhetoric as hyperbole and noise for online media, are also guilty. This includes 12 senators and more than 100 representatives of the lower House of Representatives who have agreed, that the elections in November were not legitimate (or at least questioned the result). They did nothing to stop the stream of dezinformation and chaos. Republicans did well when the president on the Ottoman border controlled their party by becoming accomplices who allowed it to create a government, which works only for it and not for the people.

At an apparent time, as if democracy were burning in the U.S. Congress, President Trump was sitting in the Oval Office watching on television the destruction he initiated. It took him hours until he made a statement, kindly praying to his crowd to be <x0..." peacemaker”. Trump made very little effort to control the situation, when it was told them, that he actually “loves” -- loves them and believes, that they are “Special”, special. And this for a crowd, with a terrible lack of respect for democracy.

Just a few days before the surrender of power, it seems as if Trump is planning to destroy everything and with it the foundation of democracy. He has begun to scourge some of his most loyal defenders, such as Vice President Mike Pence. Trump has made it clear that the only good republic is the one who protects it to the end. This language style has become a model in conservative media and social media, and has led to what we saw in Washington on Wednesday. Trump clearly isn't concerned about the republic leading, and more would let him fall if he wasn't its leader.

Two - Standard Police

Congress police tasked with protecting the two chambers of Congress, members of Congress and hundreds of employees inside the building failed to fulfill its task. The perpetrators mostly went in uncontrolled as they stormed the Senate, broke windows, and even walked into the convention chairman's office, Nancy Pelosi. They were allowed to stand on the convention steps mostly without any incidents.

Earlier last year, when Black Lives Matters protesters marched through Washington's city, they faced tear gas, rubber sticks, and an angry president calling to put peaceful protesters behind bars at a time they exercised their basic right. It looks like a double standard: If you're white and you support Trump, you're a patriot. If not, you are a dangerous anarchist who needs to leave with tear gas and put it behind bars.

We're looking at the final act of a president who has long sparked for violence those loyal to him. The surrender of power Donald Trump to Joe Biden's administration should come as soon as possible.
