Total B.S.
Two of those three deaths were suicides days after the riots, with no notes or explanations of their actions. You are straining to try and rationalize that Trump "killed" police.
Two of those deaths were not from the Capitol riots, and NONE of those deaths were caused by Trump. The riots were planned a month beforehand, and one if not both deaths were caused by Antifa leader John Sullivan. Who the FBI arrested for his self-incriminating videos of how he set up Ashli Babbitt to be killed. If not officer Sicknick as well.

That's a really strained attempt to rationalize your hatred.
Note how you tried to rationalize the violence by your side as justified, while no Republicans defended the Jan 6th violence, NONE that I'm aware of. The comments made were virtually identical on both Jan 6th at the the Capitol, and at the Wisconsin Capitol building 10 years ago ( i.e., "This is OUR house, the people's house!" , "This is what Democracy looks like", and the threats and intimidation. The representatives in the Wisconsin Capitol had to be protected by police from a very angry mob, and trapped in a bus actually came a lot closer to being beaten or killed by the mob.)

Again, you're full of shit. We've been over this before. Trump made a statement almost immediately. He was still on stage speaking for approximately 31 minutes after the rioting began at 12:40 PM, So take into account that he probably took 30 minutes or so for aides to inform him of what was occurring, if aides themselves even fully knew what was happening at that point. And then 15 or 30 minutes to draft a statement that would thoughtfully address the complex emotions and issues involved. And he gave a televised statement within an hour after he left the stage. On short notice, I thought it was an excellent statement, concise, heartfelt, nuanced and to the point.

You are wildly speculating about things you can't possibly know. Trump clearly cares passionately about those protesting on his behalf, and has literally sacrificed hundreds of millions in personal wealth lost to be president. Supporters at rallies have professed their love for Trump, and Trump has made clear his equal love for his supporters in these speeches, and his love for the American people. If it was all about himself for Trump, he could have left and gone anywhere in the world when he conceded the election. And he wouldn't be doing so much, post-presidency, to build the populist movement that is greater than himself.

Trump, for four years as president, and ongoing, is trying to rebuild the nation that your Democrat-Bolshevik party (in an unholy alliance with Big Tech, the liberal Newspeak media and the establishment/globalist/sellout wing of the Republican party) is so eager to destroy. Democrats are self-loathing leftist Bolshevik maniacs who hate this country and pride themselves more as socialist-globalist citizens of the world than as Americans, except for those Democrats (and Republican leaders) who are just enriching themselves by cashing in with corporate and foreign lobbyists, such as Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Tom Daschle, Mitt Romney, Paul Ryan, Mitch McConnell and marijuana lobbyist sellout John Boehner. And perhaps for some like Pelosi and Ocasio-Cortez, they might be both leftist true believers AND enriching themselves at the same time.

As far as Trump's words being "feeble", I saw him and thought it was heartfelt, that he was sincerely grieved by what happened, even though his words were not what motivated the violence (again: these were fringe groups known for past violence, and planned as much as a month in advance of Jan 6th). A psychologist and body langiuage expert I watched detailed the mannerisms that Trump's statement was sincere and from the heart, vs. the staged opportunism of Democrats who commented about events the same day.

And let's be honest here, M E M, you've never liked a word Trump has said about anything as president, and no matter what Trump said that day, or any day, no matter how self-sacrificing, no matter how sincere, you would demonize him as having malicious intent, NO MATTER WHAT he said or did. As you have for over 4 years.
