Listen to the words of Donald Trump just minutes before thousands of his supporters marched on, and broke into, the Capitol building. He told his supporters to deliver a message to Republican lawmakers who were about to certify Joe Biden’s electoral win. Here is the leader of our country inciting a crowd to violence.
Just before Trump spoke, his attorney, Rudy Giuliani took it one step further, telling the crowd, “Let’s have trial by combat.”
Trump then retreated to the White House where he refused to condemn the violence.
Ivanka Trump tweeted, since deleted, called the protesters, “American Patriots.”
