Antifa for Capitol riots

Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-IL) covered his face on Tuesday after CNN showed him footage of Trump supporters who still believe that Antifa was responsible for the January 6th riots at the United States Capitol.

During a wide-ranging interview, the Illinois Republican who serves on the House committee investigating Jan. 6 was asked about Republican voters who refuse to even watch the committee's hearings. He was then shown an example of some Trump supporters during a recent Trump event in Arizona.

"We saw it when it all went down and saw a lot of the [Black Lives Matter] and Antifa people in the building as well, and it is just, it is just nonsense!" one Trump supporter told CNN's Donie O'Sullivan.

The camera then cut back to Kinzinger, who had his hand in his face and was seemingly trying to suppress laughter. "Your face says it all," commented host Brianna Keilar.

A lie is an easy thing to believe if it's what you want to hear.

1. They got an explanation for why Donny didn't give any orders to subdue 'Antifa'?

[many a good man]

2. Commander Pelosi

ordered the troops to stand down that day

3. "Those are MY people" said TDFG when the insurrection happened.

Thus his people are ANTIFA?

Explain that, Donnie Dipshit!

4. The lies still linger among Republicans, but they get harder to believe by the hour.

I'm impressed by Antifa's good sense to stay out of the whole insurrection bid. The Trumpist narrative is a card house built on sand, and the tide is coming in.

5. They refuse to watch the hearings....

but they know Antifa and BLM protesters were in the Capitol that day. How could the tell? They say they "saw it when it all went down" but how could they pick out BLM and Antifa protesters from everyone carrying Trump flags and wearing Trump clothing?

I've watched the complete footage at least 10 times and I haven't seen a single BLM sign or Antifa uniform.

They're all lying sacks of shit, just like their pathologically lying hero.

7. Antifa and BLM dressed up as Trump supporters to confuse us

because they would totally want to stop certification of votes throwing out the president they hate so much. They're playing N-dimensional chess and checkmated themselves like that.

8. 👍

These people don't think these things through very well, do they. What idiots.

[IronLionZion]

6. Since they convicted and jailed so many Trump supporters

Deep State must have let all those Antifa get away. Damn. So much for back the blue. MAGA patriots were just bravely standing by not stopping Antifa from beating up police officers and smashing windows.

9. They don't actually believe it . That's just what they say so they don't have to defend their crimes

or support for crimes .

[Hermit-The-Prog]

10. Antifa drank my beer and lost my socks.

[IronLionZion]

11. Pet cat claims Antifa scratched up the furniture and puked on the carpet

The cat bravely chased them off. You're welcome. So how about a treat?

12. Everybody shout this!

Trump thinks antifa is special and he loves them!
