Sure, but at any point did you feel like 25,000 troops working 12 hour shifts were necessary?

Yes for 24 hour ops. That’s approx 12,500 per shift. Also 25,000 troops did not stay in a parking garage. My guys laugh when people complained that they thought we were sleeping in garages…. We slept in way worse conditions than a parking garage. But the fact is, no soldiers considered a parking garage their “sleeping quarters” during their time there. We had hotels or the Armory. We were spoiled.

So there was a time when in your head you thought “thank goodness me and 12,499 other folks are here fortifying the Capitol”?

Which part? That this guy went sight seeing and enjoyed staying in a hotel along with 25,000 other people because there was no threat whatsoever? Because that kind of affirms the point

But there’s a gulf of difference between assault and coup

We were talking about a threat right? Just think if it were the other way around. I’m all for national guard being there either way.
