To his audience he said “I know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard”.
For this, those wretched Democrats voted to impeach!
When there was zero evidence - they voted to convict based on hatred, bile and a vile contempt for justice and democracy.
They are beyond despicable.
Why? - Because they knew that being successful would have stopped Trump being allowed to stand in 2024.
Heinous! What about the hypocrisy of those who had, themselves, supported anti-democracy forces only months earlier!!!!
At no point during his two hour presentation of the facts as he saw them did he goad his supporters into adopting the tried-and-tested Antifa or Black Live Matter’s extra-parliamentary tactics of violence and intimidation.
In fact, most of the address was used to explain his grievances about the election. In short, his points were that electoral laws were changed before Election Day - unconstitutionally.
In his mind and to his audience the message was clear: He won under the rules of the Old Constitution; Biden won under the new ones, introduced just before November 2020.
The facts that the laws were changed is disputed by no-one. It is the crucial bone of contention.
Republicans, according to the US Constitution, thought that only the State Legislatures could change electoral laws; Democrats, not wanting to let the serendipitous COVID-19 crisis go to waste, decided to test these assumptions.
It turned out that electoral laws could indeed be changed by all and any parts of Officialdom so long as they had an anti-Trump bias. And, so far, they seem to have been proven right. Mail.
