There's that pesky thing called due process in the constitution. Is the legal system frustrating beyond belief? Yes it is. Does it work like it's supposed to more for those who can afford teams of high paid attorneys? Yes, it does. However, the ENTIRE process is AVAILABLE to everyone, the "unfairness" is the cost of a legal defense. People scream about 2 systems, and unfair. It's not the process or the rule of law that's flawed. It's the cost of Attorney's, experts, and everything else involved. Someone accused of murder can expect upwards of $500K in legal fees to mount a defense.

I can guarantee, were this ANYONE other than DJT, or some other despised public person, the same people belly aching now would be screaming at top volume about due process and the constitution. You can't be pro 1st amendment for everyone but (fill in name here). You can't be pro constitution, except in "this" case. And do we really want to start arresting and prosecuting based on "we all KNOW what XX was REALLY saying and what we REALLY saw"?

What I saw on J6 was bunch of morons storming the capitol. A very lot of them have been arrested, charged and prosecuted. Why, because they live streamed and posted their crimes on social media as well as picked up on live media coverage of the event. Now THAT'S some solid evidence. Interesting thing, people don't seem to be able to understand WHY those were easy yet DJT is not. I also heard what was said on the ellipse. Was it a dog whistle, yes. It always is with Republicans. Did he say, you guys go break into the capital and beat up on the capitol police? No. There's this thing called plausible deniability. Trump skirted the line, but, he never actually called for violence. And that was by design. So all these claims of "we all saw it live on TV" no, we didn't. We saw what WE were taking away from it and I'm certain exactly what Trump was calling for. Unfortunately, what "we think he was REALLY saying" WILL NOT hold up in a court of law.
