Not the point.
The imagery of the attempt, has a very real impact on assholes who want to destroy our government. The fact they failed does not change the fact that the attempt was literally less than a minute away from the ability of killing members of congress and the VP.
We can expect future attempts by far right assholes on softer targets. Other state houses, or businesses or churches sympathetic to the left.
Trump succeeded in making domestic terrorism a long term concern.
