If they had deployed sufficient law enforcement resources to ensure Capitol House was not breached, then the outcome will have been far more positive and the anti-Western press in Iran, China and Russia would not be gloating.
The 'protestors' weren't black Andrew. Makes all the difference in Trump's US of 2020. In 4 years he's made the country go back 60 years...
