Trump wasn't telling McCarthy what he knew. Trump was telling McCarthy what he wanted McCarthy to repeat.Trump thought it was Antifa attacking. Isn't that exculpatory?"When McCarthy finally reached the president on January 6 and asked him to publicly and forcefully call off the riot, the president initially repeated the falsehood that it was antifa that had breached the Capitol,"
Of course, that is idiotic on every level. Not one protest was a Biden or Democrat rally. And the young people that caused the problems arent the voting base anyway.If his "base" is all guilty, then Biden's base is responsible for 2 billion in DAMAGES and the many LIVES LOST
Meanwhile he wouldn't have been able to stop the riot anyway, which you democrats try hard to overlook, since many of the rioters are there to riot and planned for it two months earlier.
You’re an anti-American idiot. Go back to the Soviet Union where you belong. Sounds like trump made an accurate assessment of an event.Update:
Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-Md.), the lead House impeachment manager, said Saturday morning that his team will seek to subpoena Rep. Jaime Herrera Beutler (R-Wash.) to testify before the Senate about her knowledge of a phone conversation between Donald Trump and House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) that took place during the January 6 attack on the U.S. Capitol.
"When McCarthy finally reached the president on January 6 and asked him to publicly and forcefully call off the riot, the president initially repeated the falsehood that it was antifa that had breached the Capitol," Herrera Beutler said in a statement late Friday. "McCarthy refuted that and told the president that these were Trump supporters. That's when, according to McCarthy, the president said, 'Well, Kevin, I guess these people are more upset about the election than you are.'"
The Senate voted by a margin of 55-45 Saturday morning to open the door to calling witnesses.

This isn't going to go well.
The Senate just agreed to have NO witnesses, will proceed with the closing arguments instead.

But in your tiny little mind, the destruction of private and public property because George Floyd committed suicide was perfectly acceptable?!?!Not worthy of responseThey are Patriots and they should have burned the place to the ground!!I keep hearing Trump critics saying he did nothing for 6 hours....when in fact he did what he could...but was thwarted by Big Tech at every opportunity.
The President of the US is incapable of communicating without Twitter?
Trump was sending tweets before, during and after the mob attack on Congress. He called them patriots and said he loved them.
Which is what the laws was meant to do. I've read of judge being impeached but he then resigned, so impeachment charges were dropped because he had become a civilian which means that since he longer hold office certainly would not be risking integrity of the government.That would be giving the impeached the means to avoid disqualification from office. One of the two judgments that conviction for impeachment carries.Sorry but it only started----------once someone becomes a civilian then the impeachment process is ended.
They would not have made a mechanism that allows for such a judgment, and then give the impeached a means to escape that judgment. A judgment whose primary purpose isn't to punish the impeached, but to protect the integrity of the government from his influence.
The Democrats are truly continuing to work on "destroying America". As they have tried repeatedly during the Trump Presidency. Remember that it was Nancy Pelosi - House Speaker - that wanted to rush the first Impeachment - because of Russia. No, since then, the Democrats have been a circus on the world stage. Not everyone is even please with their clown-style acts.Update:

Yep, he'd do the same Goddamned thing. And if he won and we survived another four years of his chaotic authoritarian regime, he'd attempt to remain for a third term - By COUP.
Actually Trump would pass the presidency as if he was a king or a dictator to the next generation of Trump.
He hates Eric and DJTJ - The crown would probably be passed to Ivanka. Lucky us!
Katie is kinky!!
But that did not prevent him from running for office, or getting another position as an officer of the government. Impeachment was meant to save the government from having people who committed high crimes and misdemeanors from finding their way back into government.Which is what the laws was meant to do. I've read of judge being impeached but he then resigned, so impeachment charges were dropped because he had become a civilian which means that since he longer hold office certainly would not be risking integrity of the government.

Maybe the Goya Beans are now being used in those awesome Taco Bowls at Trump Tower?
Oh so you want gossip and rumors to enter the frey now ??? Figures !!!!I would like them to subpoena WH staff and aids to testify what Trump was doing while the attacks were ongoing and what he was saying. Also, who was urging him to do something.
So you are saying the Capitol siege and assaulting/killing Capitol police was fine and dandy. Cute.But in your tiny little mind, the destruction of private and public property because George Floyd committed suicide was perfectly acceptable?!?!Not worthy of responseThey are Patriots and they should have burned the place to the ground!!I keep hearing Trump critics saying he did nothing for 6 hours....when in fact he did what he could...but was thwarted by Big Tech at every opportunity.

How do you even function, much less type up the crap you spew?
Yeah, and what was the residing answer to that everytime ??? It was exactly the same "we have no control over the mob, but we can understand their frustration". Does that make the reps guilty ? Nope, but what needs to be found out is how or who was responsible for the lead ups, and why water wasn't being doused on the tiny fires before they grew into big ones ?? Then we need to find out where the real truth is, otherwise was it all caused by the rehtoric of Trump, and that rehtoric being based on no evidence or was it lies and the extreme rehtoric of the left in an attempt to unseat by any means a President that they themselves hated for personal reasons ??One can draw an inference that someone who doesn't want to STOP an action, wanted that action to START.Democrats are getting desperate in the attempt to prove Trump planned an insurrection obviously.
It might be a low brow and distasteful comment, but unfortunately for the Dems it has no relevance to wether Trump incited a mob that had already started their move before Trump even started his speech.
It's what they said of democrats that didn't call for the stop to BLM protests.
And you can say this, but where was your outrage during the insurrectionist activities, the burning, the looting, the bail outs, the aiding and abetting, the anarchy, and the murdering by the mobs over the summer riots hypocrite ??Meanwhile he wouldn't have been able to stop the riot anyway, which you democrats try hard to overlook, since many of the rioters are there to riot and planned for it two months earlier.
Trump had at his fingertips, as commandaer-in-chief and head executive, all the forces they had at Lafayette park, which could have been sent to the Capitol on Trumps authority.
