I still can’t get over the fact that these people thought they were going to fly to DC, storm the Capitol building, over-through the legislature, execute the sitting Vice President, and then FLY HOME AND GO BACK TO WORK ON WEDNESDAY.

I firmly believe most of the crowd that was there wasn't intending what happened. Like podium-guy or nerd Conan. I think most of these folks showed up thinking it'd be a big gathering, an airing of grievances, and then they'd go home.
Then there were the few who had every intention of armed insurrection--excuse me, "revolution"--who were then motivated by the sitting psychopath's speech. Then mob mentality took over.
