How can anyone think trump doesn’t deserve to be impeached and found guilty in the senate?
There is no denying the facts. The president told a crowd of his supporters to go to the Capitol Building and attempt to interfere with the certification of the election. End of story. At best trump is guilty of gross negligence and abuse of his authority as president. At worst trump is guilty of an attempted coup and inciting a riot against the American government. Any other things at play in this case are irrelevant. trump involved himself in the events that unfolded after his intentionally timed rally. trump is legally accountable and should be found guilty of inciting violence.
First, until trump I was a moderate Republican. Second, this has nothing to do with hillary. Third, the left won’t let this go? To this day trump still wants hillary to be charged with something. Fourth, the president of the United States incited a mob to violence and people were killed. Should we just ignore that?
Justin...that is either you being an azz and ignoring the facts. Or you are delusional.
Dan... what do you mean no one else reacted? If they weren’t there how would they react? The crowd at the rally were the only people in place to react. The media did start talking about trumps calling on the crowd to take action and Rudy Giulianis stirring them up while the rally was going on. Many outlets said the speeches sounded like a call to arms. And all outlets were replaying those parts of the rally during the ensuing riot. The Capitol police were unprepared? How do you prepare for 2000
in advance? And speaking in a secret code? Watch the video. The words spoken were “go to the Capitol Building and stop the steal” , a direct command. “If you don’t we will lose America”, saying that they were being forced to act. “Be brave. We can’t be weak. We must act and do so without fear.”, how else do you interpret that? Where does that sound like “be peaceful. Listen to the police commands. Don’t break the law”? Stop trying to act like this was just a normal speech by a president.
