I’ve watched the videos of trumpers attacking the Capitol. You are not going to spin it away. I expect it will be in many campaign ads in 2 years. And correct me if I’m wrong but to this day Trump hasn’t expressed even pretend regret over his “special people” trying to stop the certification of the election.
I'ver de-constructed your lying narrative multiple times already, in this and other topics on the subject. Trump has nothing to apologize for, he did nothing wrong. He repeatedly instructed the protestors to protest PEACEFULLY. There is a lot of narrative you try to gloss over while slandering Trump, such as the fact that many protestors entered the building with police letting them in, and no violence. In the only cases of REAL violence, John Earle Sullivan and his group of Antifa/BLM infiltrators, *PRETENDING* to be Trump supporters, and openly gloating about doing so, ON VIDEO, which the FBI used to arrest him and make a case against him. There were 5 poeple who died on Jan 6th, and this group of leftists were at the center of it all, smashing windows, committing violence, and inciting others to violence. When the *ONLY* person was killed that day (5' 2" Air Force veteran Ashli Babbitt) , Sullivan and his group were at the center of it, inciting it, causing it to happen. She was shot and killed by a Capitol police officer that Sullivan's comments (ON VIDEO) made trigger happy.
And of the lying narrative of "FIVE PEOPLE KILLED BY WHITE SUPREMACIST TRUMP SUPPORTERS", there were exactly **ZERO** who were killed by Trump supporters. Four died of strokes or heart attacks, including officer Brian Sicknick (who was a strong Trump supporter by the way). And the only person actually "KILLED" was Ashli Babbit, *NOT* by a Trump supporter, but by a Capitol police officer, who was directly incited by John Earle Sullivan (ON VIDEO, VIDEO POSTED ON SOCIAL MEDIA) just a few feet away, inciting the officers.
So spare me the B.S. about how Trump is "responsible". Beyond bumper sticker slogans, you can't make a logical case for Trump causing it. The evidence is that planning of the riots **FAR** preceded anything Trump said on Jan 6th. And what Trump did say on Jan 6th was only to "PEACEFULLY and patriotically" express support for House and Senate members legally challenging the election result.
The people who rioted are part of fringe groups like Antifa, BLM, Proud Boys, Boogaloos (the latter tied to BLM), and Oath Keepers, all of which have years of violent history long before Jan 6th, and arguably not even Trump supporters, just groups using the Trump protestors as cover for their own agenda. As FBI, DHS and Capitol police all documented days before the Jan 6th protests, from these groups' online communications.
I say it again: What happened on Jan 6th doesn't even rise to the level of violence in a typical BLM or Antifa protest. The BLM seige in May 2020 on the White House that forced Secret Service to evacuate the president, or the sieges on federal buildings EVERY NIGHT FOR OVER 3 MONTHS are far worse.
Or the leftist/Democrat violence at the Madison, Wisconsin capitol 10 years ago I posted an article recently about. Where legislators were led away to escape on a bus, and were in true danger that didn't exist for House and Senate legislators on Jan 6th.
Your side exaggerates Jan 6th way beyond reality, and twists the narrative, while ignoring **ACTUAL** insurgency and violence and attempts to kill federal officials *EVERY NIGHT* for months, that have caused dozens of innocent people to die. The pieces of shit on your side literally burned whole blocks and businesses in 275 cities, including over 500 businesses in just your own native Minneapolis.
Jan 6th was a few broken windows and minor vandalism in ONE building, and House and Senate members were back completing their business in joint session less than 3 hours later. As contrasted witht he thousands of business owners who had their stores looted and burned to the ground. And the tens of thousands who worked for them who permanently lost their jobs as a result of the destruction. And dozens of federal agents who in multiple attempts by BLM and Antifa in Seattle and Portland were almost burned to death, INTENTIONALLY, by BLM/Antifa maniacs who purposely tried to deliberately trap and burn federal agents to death in federal buildings attacked.
I could quote verbatim from Youtube video comments (and already have here, on multiple occasions) where the likes of Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, Maxine Waters, Alexandra Ocasio-Cortez, Ayannna Pressley, Ilhan Omar, Chuck Schumer, Nancy Pelosi and others have UNQUESTIONABLY incited violence directly with their rhetoric, that in the cases of some Antifa/BLM they were repeating as they shot up federal buildings or ICE compounds or Border Patrol stations. Rhetoric that none of these Democrats want to respond to their own words inciting. And nor do you, M E M. You're as bad as them for fronting their lying murderous narrative. These people truly want to destroy this country. And apparently, so do you.
Liberals who bemoan discrimination, intolerance, restraint of Constitutional freedoms, and promotion of hatred toward various abberant minorities, have absolutely no problem with discriminating against, being intolerant of, restricting Constitutional freedoms of, and directing hate-filled scapegoat rhetoric against conservatives.
EXACTLY what they accuse Republicans/conservatives of doing, is EXACTLY what liberals/Democrats do themselves, to those who oppose their beliefs.
