Definitely, all that hold meetings telling their audience to March right down there, right now, take back your country with strength. Then they commit violence, injure people, or kill people.
He told them to peacefully march. Did you want him to hold their hand too?

He insights violence over and over but slips in one “peacefully” word to make it all better? Give me a break.

if anyone else did what he did, I would expect manslaughter charges.

He didn't "incite" anything. You'd have to condemn pretty much all politicians who've used similar rhetoric.

You, and everybody who claims to believe Trump incited an insurrection, including the idiots in Congress, have less than no idea what you are talking about.


"The Supreme Court recognizes, rightfully, that political speech often involves really passionate, sometimes violent rhetoric. And unless and until it creates a specific and immediate roadmap to violence against others, it cannot be criminalized consistent with our First Amendment."

No tears here, but if I were a liberal, I might have tears of joy. Republicans did it to themselves. It’s trumps fault for turning Republican Party into a trash party.
I have no interest in the party . they have already violated their principles. I do enjoy your tears though . Trump owns you and your hatred for him forces you to post your nonsense here.

"The House Managers’ brief lays out the most important facts governing the Article of Impeachment. It documents how Trump undermined the 2020 election long before it took place; how he called his followers to Washington for a January 6 protest against Congress’s required approval of the electoral-vote total; how he and those working with him carefully goaded the volatile crowd into a violent assault on the Capitol; how, after learning that the mob was inside the Capitol, he tweeted a fresh attack on his own Vice-President, who was then in mortal danger; and how he refused to speak out to stop the violence or take the actions a commander-in-chief should take to protect the government from assault.

Those actions and inactions, the managers argue, violated the president’s oath of office and his duty to “take care that the laws be faithfully executed,” deliberately attacked the very foundation of the American republic, and recklessly imperiled national security."

Let’s look at the parts of the transcript where Trump is supposedly not threatening Raffensperger. I’ve italicized the most relevant portions."

Trump: I think you’re going to find that they are shredding ballots because they have to get rid of the ballots because the ballots are unsigned. The ballots are corrupt, and they’re brand new, and they don’t have seals, and there’s a whole thing with the ballots. But the ballots are corrupt.
And you are going to find that they are—which is totally illegal—it is more illegal for you than it is for them because you know what they did and you’re not reporting it. That’s a criminal, that’s a criminal offense. And you can’t let that happen. That’s a big risk to you and to Ryan, your lawyer. And that’s a big risk.
But they are shredding ballots, in my opinion, based on what I’ve heard. And they are removing machinery, and they’re moving it as fast as they can, both of which are criminal finds. And you can’t let it happen, and you are letting it happen. You know, I mean, I’m notifying you that you’re letting it happen.

But I mean all of this stuff is very dangerous stuff. When you talk about no criminality, I think it’s very dangerous for you to say that.

I think you have to say that you’re going to reexamine it, and you can reexamine it, but reexamine it with people that want to find answers, not people that don’t want to find answers.

Under law, you’re not allowed to give faulty election results, okay? You’re not allowed to do that. And that’s what you done. This is a faulty election result.
 
He didn't "incite" anything. You'd have to condemn pretty much all politicians who've used similar rhetoric.
"You don't concede when there's theft involved. Our country has had enough. We will not take it anymore."

"You will have an illegitimate president. That is what you will have, and we can't let that happen."

"if you don't fight like hell you're not going to have a country anymore."

"We're going to walk down to the Capitol and we're going to cheer on our brave senators and congressmen and women, and we're probably not going to be cheering so much for some of them."

...we’re going to walk down to the Capitol and we’re going to cheer on our brave senators and congressmen and women, and 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.

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.

According to one law enforcement official, medical examiners did not find signs that the officer sustained any blunt force trauma, so investigators believe that early reports that he was fatally struck by a fire extinguisher are not true.
Notice something here. One and only one law enforcement official claims that that the officer was not killed by blunt force trauma. Is this guy a medical professional and what is the official position being taken by the department?
