In reply to the discussion: I still find it interesting the J6 committee never really focused in on the Willard Hotel. [View all]Irish_Dem

The role of the J6 committee was solely to bring down Trump, and prepare the US public
for the DOJ investigations.
In the past, presidential and high level wrong doing is carefully covered up.
The power players are protected.
But Trump is being thrown under the bus.
But not because he is a ruthless criminal, but because he hurts the GOP brand and went after McConnell.
So yes the GOP power players were given the green light to turn on Trump and cough up information.
Cooperate and help the authorities. We saw all the GOP witnesses sing like canaries. The deal
was that congress would be protected if they cooperated.
Yes. The vastly wealthy oligarchs bribe corrupt politicians who lie and manipulate the public.
Yes of course Trump's attacks against McConnell increased after the J6 committee was formed
because even Trump knows McConnell was the one who organized the committee.
Yes there is no stomach apparently for destroying half the US congress for their role in 1/6.
So it was decided to just go after Trump and his inner circle.
