Oh stop it. Even Mitch McConnell stated that Trump ignited the entire ******* thing immediately after voting against impeachment. Whether it's impeachment-worthy or not isn't relevant. I simply stated that he ignited the riot, because he obviously did. Here is what McConnell had to say immediately after that vote:
“January 6th was a disgrace. American citizens attacked their own government. They used terrorism to try to stop a specific piece of democratic business they did not like. Fellow Americans beat and bloodied our own police. They stormed the Senate floor. They tried to hunt down the Speaker of the House. They built a gallows and chanted about murdering the vice president.
They did this because they had been fed wild falsehoods by the most powerful man on Earth – because he was angry he’d lost an election. Former President Trump’s actions preceding the riot were a disgraceful dereliction of duty.
The House accused the former president of, quote, ‘incitement.’ That is a specific term from the criminal law.
There is no question that President Trump is practically and morally responsible for provoking the events of that day. The people who stormed this building believed they were acting on the wishes and instructions of their president.
And their having that belief was a foreseeable consequence of the growing crescendo of false statements, conspiracy theories, and reckless hyperbole which the defeated president kept shouting into the largest megaphone on planet Earth. The issue is not only the president’s intemperate language on January 6th." - Mitch McConnell
I have no problem with questioning/challenging the election results. There are peaceful means of doing exactly that and they should be used. Igniting a riot after losing an election has never happened before. It's the only time in our nation's existence that we haven't had a peaceful transition of power.
It was four years ago. Explain to me why I should expect behavior from him in the future that's any different than what he tried to pull on Jan 6?
