@Dood111
And why did Trump not say, 'don't do that'? If WE heard it HE heard it.
Any way you want to puke it, bend it, move it around, deny it, Trump DID incite the riot and the attack on the capitol building and has blood on his hands as a result, you can mewl about it all you want but that will NEVER change.
When the worthless senators 'off scot free' vote which they will in spite of the fact Trump caused the insurrection, the history books will for SURE say Trump was responsible.
And that get out of jail card vote the worthless senators will do does not keep the world from knowing Trump was the ONLY US POTUS EVER to be impeached TWICE.
The votes to acquit don't count for that fact. The impeachment is from the House ONLY not the senate.
@dood111 saidYes, the people right in front of him who he was inciting.
SUPPORTERS can be heard yelling that, not Trump.
He even said he would march with them to the Capitol after that.
@dood111 saidbwahahahahahahaha
Was led by AOC, who conveniently disappeared before the Capitol police showed up and arrested 51 people.
No, not the Jan 6 crowd, the 2018 demonstration where AOC led 200 people to take over Pelosi's office, after which Pelosi said she supported their right to protest and do it.
Remember when that happened?
More goodies from the House brief. The day before the attack on the Capitol, the Donald tweeted this:
" “I hope the Democrats, and even more importantly, the weak and ineffective RINO section of the Republican Party, are looking at the thousands of people pouring into
D.C. They won’t stand for a landslide election victory to be stolen." p. 17
During his speech, Trump said this:
" “if you don’t fight like hell you’re not going to have a country anymore.” p. 24
And this is what he tweeted at 6:01 PM that day, hours after the mob he incited had attacked and killed 1 police officer and injured 140 others and then had tried to murder the Vice-President and members of Congress for daring to perform their Constitutionally mandated duties:
"“These are the things and events that happen when a sacred
landslide election victory is so unceremoniously & viciously stripped away from great patriots who have been badly & unfairly treated for so long. Go home with love & in peace.
Remember this day forever!”158 p. 36

EDIT: "If provoking an insurrectionary riot against a Joint Session of Congress after losing an election is not an impeachable offense, it is hard to imagine what would be."
