You're moving goal posts. The OP stated the article inferred it. You may take it up with him. Maybe you should stop making definitive statements on your educated guesses. You're such a sad excuse for a human being. Snowflake.

Lose how? The lying leftist media are making the claim that the riot was because of Trump. Now we know that it had nothing to do with Trump for several reasons: First of all, the FBI warned the Capital police the day before that this was likely to happen. Secondly, the rioters came prepared with shields and zip lock handcuffs. People don't normally walk around with these things, so it's clear this was pre-planned. Most if not all of the rioters were not even at Trump's speech.

The title of the thread more than just infers it. However the article doesn't even go that far.
Now the Washington Post Admits Trump Did Not Incite the Capitol Riot
My educated guess consisted of reading the article and comparing it to the claims of the OP and seeing they do not match. If your only argument against that is I'm just guessing then you have just lost every future argument you make on this board.

I thought you guys were just saying the WaPo article "admits" Trump didn't incite the riot? You guys need to make up your mind, you go back and forth post by post.
There were wingnuts at the capitol who claimed they were there on orders from Trump.
Pardon-Seeking Rioters 'Following My President' Could Hurt Trump's Case
The "Trump told me to" defense provides "great evidence" for a Senate impeachment trial, joked one activist.
www.newsweek.com
These people weren't just incited on the 6th. Trump previously invited them to Washington for a "wild time" and kept telling them their country was being stolen. The violent and "revolutionary" rhetoric even carried over on this board.
So you didn't say this?
If Trump had simply conceded this wouldn't have happened.
Yes or no?
And my point is that is a 100% guess on your part. Stop making your guesses seem like definitive statements.

We already knew some who were arrested (like coyote boi) stated they were following Trump. If you remove the reason for the insurrection there would be no reason for the attempt to interfere with the peaceful transfer of power.

Speaking of this definitive statement argument of yours, it appears desperate since you're not known to stick to the facts. And if you're only interested in definitive statements then you'd have to agree that the OP is making a declaration that hasn't been proven.

The Democrats incited violence for four full years. Not a peep from the left.

LMAO....says the person who makes up their own facts. Give me ONE example where I do not stick to facts. You're such a cowardly leftist.

Trump did tell people to go there, but he didn't tell them to bust into the Capital, and that's what the OP is about. It was not a spur of the moment reaction.
Are our politicians to be held responsible for how others react to their words? Then none of them would be able to talk at all. To the chagrin of you leftists, people are responsible for their own actions, not what somebody else says or does. Unless Donald Trump said these people need to bust into the Capital, then he's not responsible for it.
Is Bernie Sanders responsible for the baseball field shooter? And if not, why not?

No it does not. It says there was a conspiracy. The question remains what did Trump know and when did he know it.

Oh man the blindness is apparent, WAPO actually posted the NAMES of groups and people in their article.
"Self-styled militia members from Virginia, Ohio and other states made plans to storm the U.S. Capitol days in advance of the Jan. 6 attack, and then communicated in real time as they breached the building on opposite sides and talked about hunting for lawmakers, according to court documents filed Tuesday.
While authorities have charged more than 100 individuals in the riot, details in the new allegations against three U.S. military veterans offer a disturbing look at what they allegedly said to one another before, during and after the attack — statements that indicate a degree of preparation and determination to rush deep into the halls and tunnels of Congress to make “citizens’ arrests” of elected officials.
U.S. authorities charged an apparent leader of the Oath Keepers extremist group, Thomas Edward Caldwell, 66, of Berryville, Va., in the attack, alleging that the Navy veteran helped organize a ring of dozens who coordinated their movements as they “stormed the castle” to disrupt the confirmation of President-elect Joe Biden’s electoral college victory."
and,
"The arrests this weekend of several people with alleged ties to far-right extremist groups, including the Oath Keepers, the Proud Boys and the Three Percenters, suggest that the riot was not an entirely impulsive outburst of violence but an event instigated or exploited by organized groups. Hours of video posted on social media and pored over by investigators have focused on individuals in military-style gear moving together."
Next time try reading the article first.....

We’re going walk down to the Capitol, and we’re going to cheer on our brave senators, and congressmen and women. We’re probably not going to be cheering so much for some of them because you’ll never take back our country with weakness. You have to show strength, and you have to be strong.
Donald Trump: (18:16)
We have come to demand that Congress do the right thing and only count the electors who have been lawfully slated, lawfully slated. I know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard. Today we will see whether Republicans stand strong for integrity of our elections, but whether or not they stand strong for our country, our country. Our country has been under siege for a long time, far longer than this four-year period. We’ve set it on a much straighter course, a much … I thought four more years. I thought it would be easy.

Trump said he would march to the Capitol with the mob, but the coward didn't.
He then sat with his fiddle up his ass while Rome burned.
