      They’re trying to water down the word “insurrection” as hard as they can so they can invoke the 14th. They haven’t really thought it through much more than that, much like the current impeachment discussions.

        They have been bleating for nearly three years now how “it wasn’t really an insurrection”, and I suppose that has not worked well, because most people continue to ignore them and their nonsense narratives about that. Now they are going to downplay the very term itself. Makes a certain kind of sense.
