I don’t see your reasoning being sound on the capital riot just for the simple fact that Biden had already won. There was nothing Pence could do within the Constitution to prevent that from happening. Trump however sold it as a game changing day for him. His followers believed that somehow Trump could still win because he falsely told them so.

Oh and scientists, reporters and any republican that voted for impeachment.
So it’s just the Trump cult that is truth basically.
It's not a conspiracy, it's a pure and simple fact that the RNC put Pence on the ticket as the establishment guy, essentially Trump's equivalent that G.H.W. Bush was for Reagan, the establishment apparatchik on the ticket, that negotiated the GOP's support of Trump in 2016.
And when it counted, despite that Pence had the powers of his office to carry on the political fight through further available channels, Pence did abdicate that responsibility with some ambiguous high-sounding legalistic words that were ultimately untrue. Pence only had to allow Senators Cruz, Hawley and others to make their legal case to the nation, but instead shut it down, handing the establishment the win.
It's a fact that all the judges involved, even U S S C, state legislators, U.S. House and Senate members, Governors, secretaries of state, and finally Pence, had the ability to act, and just out of corruption or fear, refused to do the right thing. The evidence was there, and they just refused to look at it. They were intimidated, or in the several cases I previously linked in Georgia, had clear ideological of money motivation, GA governor Kemp's chief of staff now works as a lobbyist for Dominion! How blind are you, M E M?
