GOP Sen. Ron Johnson Suggests Jan. 6 Riot Wasn't As Bad As Portrayed

Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) took issue on Thursday with the way the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol has been portrayed, saying that the public depiction of the event that resulted in the deaths of five people has been “highly biased.”

“I think it was driven by the very slick video that was produced by the impeachment managers,” he told reporters at the Milwaukee Press Club Thursday, adding, “There has been a lot of false information, but it hasn’t come out of my mouth.”

The video shown at the February impeachment trial of former President Donald Trump laid out the deadly timeline of Jan. 6, including how the events coincided with remarks made by Trump himself. Indeed, thousands of Trump supporters marched to the U.S. Capitol that day at the president’s urging, to try to stop Congress from certifying the election results in favor of Joe Biden.

Johnson has consistently tried to downplay the riot. In February, he said it wasn’t “an armed insurrection,” even though there has been plenty of evidence of weapons at the Capitol that day ― in addition to the violence rioters inflicted on police officers. In March, he said that he “never felt threatened” that day and that the pro-Trump mob that pushed past Capitol police officers were individuals who “truly respect law enforcement” and “loved this country.”

Why didn't you go out and greet those people on Jan. 6 if they were so tame?

The morning of the 2016 election 538 still gave Feingold an 87% chance of winning.
