'This was the most serious breach of the US political system since the Civil War — and the first time the Capitol had come under assault since the War of 1812. Yet even then, Trump was willing to put the entire nation through more turmoil...' -QuinHillyer
According to the indictment, even after Trump made his bizarre video asking rioters to leave the Capitol but saying he “love[d]” them, Trump and his consiglieres spent hours continuing to try to impede the key civic ceremony signaling a peaceful transfer of power. At 6 p.m., Trump reportedly tried to call two senators.
Worse, all of this came after the nation had been traumatized by hours of scenes of their sacred Capitol building being physically attacked, windows and doors broken, scaffolds erected, and Capitol police viciously assaulted. This was after 140 law enforcement personnel were wounded, some of them seriously, after a rioter had been killed, and after people with zip ties were seen yelling for the capture of the speaker of the House.
