Complete and total bullshit.
No, itâs not. The fact that you support Donald Trump and think what happened Jan. 6, 2021 is not a big deal is what is complete and total bullshit.

It is bullshit of the highest order.
Please tell us your thoughts about the BLM riots where people were killed and businesses were burned all the while Democrats were encouraging the insurrectionists causing it.
As far as what happened January 6th, I want to know why doors were opened and people were led through the Capitol. Trump did not once encourage violence. If you can show me where Trump told people to enter the Capitol and encourage violence, Iâll eat my words.
I donât condone the violence that occurred during BLM protests surrounding the murder of George Floyd, but the leaders of the Democratic Party did not tell people to organize Black Lives Matter protests, nor did they directly address them beforehand. I do, however, remember Donald Trump instructing LEOâs to use tear gas against BLM protesters at a protest in Washington, DC as he was beading to a church photo op.

As for Jan. 6, 2021, Republican Congresswoman and Trump supporter, Lauren Boebert tweeted âToday is 1776â during the morning of the insurrection attempt. https://x.com/laurenboebert/status/1346811381878845442?s=46&t=J8i7q0F51Y4-d7E78YpG0Q
Also, Trump led a rally with the the insurrectionists at the Capitol Building prior to them storming the Capitol Building. Ted Cruz and Josh Hawley were also seen greeting and speaking with the group. Hereâs the full transcript (per the Associated Press) of what he told them: Transcript of Trump's speech at rally before US Capitol riot | AP News
A few key excerpts:
Big tech is now coming into their own. We beat them four years ago. We surprised them. We took them by surprise and this year they rigged an election. They rigged it like theyâve never rigged an election before. And by the way, last night they didnât do a bad job either if you notice.
All of us here today do not want to see our election victory stolen by emboldened radical-left Democrats, which is what theyâre doing. And stolen by the fake news media. Thatâs what theyâve done and what theyâre doing. We will never give up, we will never concede. It doesnât happen. You donât concede when thereâs theft involved.
Our country has had enough. We will not take it anymore and thatâs what this is all about. And to use a favorite term that all of you people really came up with: We will stop the steal.
We will not let them silence your voices. Weâre not going to let it happen, Iâm not going to let it happen.
And he looked at Mike Pence, and I hope Mike is going to do the right thing. I hope so. I hope so.
Because if Mike Pence does the right thing, we win the election. All he has to do, all this is, this is from the number one, or certainly one of the top, Constitutional lawyers in our country. He has the absolute right to do it. Weâre supposed to protect our country, support our country, support our Constitution, and protect our constitution.
And I actually, I just spoke to Mike. I said: âMike, that doesnât take courage. What takes courage is to do nothing. That takes courage.â And then weâre stuck with a president who lost the election by a lot and we have to live with that for four more years. Weâre just not going to let that happen.
It takes an insane amount of mental gymnastics to not see that Trump was inflaming the group at every turn. Sure, he didnât explicitly say âGo Desttroy the Capitol Building,â but he incited the rioters multiple tweets. He even did so with a tweet as the attempted coup was taking place. âMike Pence didnât have the courage to do what should have been done to protect our Country and our Constitution, giving States a chance to certify a corrected set of facts, not the fraudulent or inaccurate ones which they were asked to previously certify," Trump tweeted at 2:24 p.m. "USA demands the truth!â Again, inciting the rioters. Once Trumpâs tweet was relayed to the rioters, they yelled âHang Mike Pence.â
Donald Trump also was nowhere to be found during the attempted coup, and he did not tell those storming the Capitol Building to call it off as it was happening. Mike Pence had to do that, which he did at 2:35 PM CDT: https://x.com/mike_pence/status/1346918219991420928?s=46&t=J8i7q0F51Y4-d7E78YpG0Q
Donald Trump only issued a statement asking the rioters to stop within the hour after Joe Biden pleaded with him to do so around 3:20 PM CST (the breach of the Capitol Building started around 1:49 PM CST).
Yes, Trump did issue two tweets asking the crowd to remain peaceful.

However, he also sent the tweet condemning Mike Pence for not overturning the election results about 10 minutes later.
Trump did nothing to stop what was happening at the Capitol Building, and he incited the rioters both before and during the event.

Ok, it took a while to wade through all all of that. After reading everything, I did not see where President Trump told the crowd to enter the Capitol. I also did not see where he encouraged violence. Maybe you forgot to add that part? As a matter of fact, President Trump encouraged people to be âpeaceful and patriotic.â He also approved the use of the National Guard, which Pelosi declined.
Here are a few clips of Democrats encouraging people to protest and inciting riots:
Pretty sad that some Democrats are ok with this yet think President Trump caused January 6th. Democrats had been encouraging riots for quite some time before January 6th. If anything, they share some of the blame for encouraging protests.
First, I donât agree with Maxine Waters inciting the crowd in the video you shared. I do not support her doing so. Second, in the video you shared, Kamala Harris never once said she condoned any acts of violence surrounding BLM protests. Nor did she publicly address BLM protesters and incite them before and during a protest, which Donald Trump did.
Also, the Democratic Party shares no blame in the events of Jan. 6, 2021. The message of election fraud and âstopping the stealâ came entirely from Donald Trump and his supporters.
I just showed you where Trump made numerous inflammatory statements to a group of protesters before they broke into the Capitol Building, and you continue to hide behind the fact he never explicitly ordered them to do so nor told them to be violent to excuse him of culpability in the event. I also showed you where Trump issued an inflammatory tweet towards Mike Pence after he refused to overturn the election results, which when relayed to those at the Capitol Building, inflamed the situation even more. I even showed you that Donald Trump refused to address the rioters publicly until hours after the attempted coup began and left it to Mike Pence to do so as it was happening. And, yet, you act like he had nothing to do with it. Guess what: If Trump didnât spend days claiming election fraud on Twitter and in press conferences, the breach on the Capitol Building doesnât happen. If Trump doesnât inflame the situation by addressing the protesters at the Capitol Building, it doesnât happen, either.
Trump also could have easily stopped what was happening, and he stayed silent, instead.

While it may not be popular on this board. Almost half of America doesnât believe the narrative. Also most [people think the trump charges are for political purposes.

It may be instructive to bear in mind the exact charges brought in the grand juryâs indictment:

I could care less whatâs popular on this message board, nor what a certain percentage of Americans think. What I shared was not a narrative. It was documented facts.
Also, you are crazy if you think most people in America believe the Trump indictments are for political show. Some, like you, do, but not most.
Dems have been going after Trump since he was elected. There score card is so biased. I have never liked trump as a person, just his policies. However I feel Dems have been acting like children in a third world banana republic. In addition, as far as group of friends showed texts to. I went to their house. Never worked for me. I did help them move and individual many moons ago. Friend told me street we moved his friend from. Donât go down there at night, not safe. They know I am conservative. Most, if not all vote dem.
EVERY. SINGLE. WITNESS. in Trumpâs most recent indictment is a Republican. Every single one. These are the people Trump surrounded himself with and appointed to his cabinet. And the Democratic party has literally nothing to do with the Grand Jury of regular fucking people in Georgia that indicted him. Trump is reaping what he sowed by trying to overturn an election, full stop. Not inciting some people on January 6th, TRYING TO OVERTURN A FUCKING PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION. No matter what theyâre telling you on OAN, this is the judicial system at work, not the Democrats.
Go read the indictment chuck posted above. Itâs all spelled out there, and itâs damning as fuck. Mostly because he fucking did it, and there is a fucking MOUNTAIN of evidence.

Then we can agree to disagree. I believe that is still allowed in America.
I rest my case.
Biden is a follower. I donât think he has initiated any key legislation. Maybe sign on, but no forward thinking legislation. I believe.
Could very well be on trying to hide assets. If legal same option many business men would choose. If you leave property for a $1. Probably ok as far as first gift. But grandkids will get socked if they are in the picture. I tend to think of assets in the depleting value typically better $1 deals. For example a car.
21 times trump tried to show the election was rigged in court. He lost all TWENTY ONE TIMES. Guess what he has NO EVIDENCE. NONE. ZERO. NADA. He only claims he lost because he is a bitch. Compare how Al gore acted when he,âlostâ to how that cunt Trump acted. Trump cares zero about the country and only about himself. You have to be sub 78 IQ to not understand that.

I can have a conversation without cussing. You can count me out for signing the Biden dem loyalty pledge. You can also count me out on trump loyalty pledge. My loyalty is to my country. You may disagree with me and that is fair. But I can still express my opinions whether right or wrong.
Trump had 21 chances to,produce evidence of a rigged election. He couldnât. So he tried to subvert democracy. Sorry that hurts your feelings. You clearly donât love the country. You love the GOP/Trump way more.

I do prefer the GOP way. I consider myself a moderate conservative. I do not want a country where ever politician is in court. Because you disagree, I am an idiot. I donât get angry. A little upset at times. But I woke up this AM. A good thing. May God bless you!
Biden has spent 40% of time as president. Trump didnât do that even if you get sick of seeing his ugly face and gutter mouth.
