15. They should wait until the FBI is done with their after action report.

There's dozens and dozens of these guys who are saying Trump is the reason they went there. That is evidence in his trial. I know that often we need the moment to get things done but these are Republicans we are talking about. The case has to be complete and utter. Democratic Senators talking about each and every insurrectionist and how they felt that Trump was telling them to do it.

Remember Trump speaks in double speak, he implies, but doesn't say directly, he told them to "walk down there" but he didn't give directions, they "walked down there" and they started an insurrection. By having their testimony as witnesses against Trump we might, *might* be able to get him convicted.

Otherwise the Republicans will let him walk.
