Well considering those "in power" are essentially huffing their own farts this is exactly what you would expect with the majority of them just believing the false narrative their puppet masters created.

The majority of politicians are not "on the take" and just believe the narrative they are fed. They may be corrupt and lining their pockets but that doesn't mean they have the real power and control. So you feed a bunch of politicians the narrative that trump's supporters are violent and already placed the capital under siege once; then it doesn't come as a surprise that the scared pussies roll out their jackboots in full force to protect themselves.
