So much for “blue collar workers motivated by economic anxiety” being those at the core of this attempted fascist insurrection. Instead it’s the usual bunch of privileged white exurbanites with college credentials who are shocked to discover that they have to face consequences for their actions.

He’s probably convinced that he’ll be able to buy his way out of this mess with expensive lawyers.
Oh for the confidence of a mediocre wealthy white man.
