and I also find it hilarious that the likes of Biden and Harris are very vocal in support of the right of assembly and protest
Neat. Now compare that to Trump's words on Jan 6 and leading up to it. Surely you will see a pretty big difference.
Assembly and Protest are Constitutionally Protected rights. A mob of cult members attacking the US Capitol is not.
But then that's not the issue.
I agree....a mob attacking the Capital is breaking the law......but who's mob was actually doing the attacking.
You can't tell me that the left hasn't attempted to frame Trump and his supporters on numerous occasions.
Wearing a MAGA hat isn't proof that any of those people even attended his speech....much less were actual Trump fans. One thing is for sure....they didn't listen or didn't attend Trump's speech....because they didn't do what he asked.
Only a mindless Democrat would think it would be impossible for ANTIFA infiltrators to attack the Capital so that Trump would get blame......just like they claim black people can't be racists. You're just not being realistic.
The mob were Trump followers.
“I know your pain, I know you’re hurt. We had an election that was stolen from us. It was a landslide election and everyone knows it, especially the other side. But you have to go home now. We have to have peace. We have to have law and order. We have to respect our great people in law and order,” Trump posted on Twitter. “We don’t want anybody hurt. It’s a very tough period of time.
There’s never been a time like this, where such a thing happened, where they could take it away from all of us. From me, from you, from our country. This was a fraudulent election, but we can’t play into the hands of these people. We have to have peace. So go home. We love you, you’re very special. We’ve seen what happens, you see the way others are treated that are so bad and so evil. I know you how feel. But go home, and go home in peace.”
Donald Trump
The man continued to lie and to incite, even as he told his Mob that he loved them and to go home...incredible! How is he walking the street free in America?
Is it only Donald Trump's perceived lies you care about? serious question.
and to answer your question, the reason he's walking the streets free is because he's not committed any crime. There's a big clue for you.
Instigating a mob to attack the People's House is a crime. The justice system is painfully slow, but he will get his.....be assured of that.
Except he didn't instigate people to attack.
For someone who talks about lying quite a lot, you do a lot of it yourself.
Of course he did. What do you think inspired some in that mob to hunt for the VPOTUS while chanting,
"hang Mike Pence!"?
Probably ANITFA assholes. The moment that
Sen Chuck Grassley (R) started the committee to hear evidence against the results..before the first speaker had presented any evidence.......that very moment....some asshole made an announcement on the Senate floor.......and told them they were in recess. Weird, why would they want to hang Pence if he was letting the Senate conduct discovery on that evidence thru a congressional hearing....the same hearing that took place when Democrats protested the 2016 election results? You would think
Democrats would want to hang Mike Pence.....
not Trump supporters, am I right?
Pence was going to allow the evidence to be heard. He was doing Trump a favor.....
but somebody stopped any evidence from being presented. Here's the video of that moment:
In this video, for some weird reason,
MSNBC already had their talking-points ready, and they somehow knew to spread a story that
Mike Pence needed to be escorted off the Senate floor and taken to a secret location, when it can't be verified by looking at what was taking place. The anchors in New York could see what we could see. How did they know this the moment that it happened.
Sen Chuck Grassley was taken off the Senate floor, not Mike Pence. Didn't they know who was conducting the hearing? Why did they claim it was Mike Pence?
Then MSNBC started immediately spreading a rumor that Trump told somebody to go to the Capital and commit insurrection. Where did they get this idea from? Even before the riots were taking place....and before people who attended his speech had even arrived. It's a 45 min walk to the Capital from his event. Why was the media already spreading this lie?
