22. So it was the Democrats, not Trump,
Thu Jan 22, 2026, 03:06 PM

Who told the "Proud Boys" to stand back and stand by and then incited his MAGA army to come to DC on January 6, saying "it will be wild". It was Democrats, not Trump, who told the mob to march to the Capitol saying "I will be with you" and told them to fight like hell or they would lose their country. It was Democrats, not Trump, who texted that Mike Pence had betrayed him that started the "Hang Mike Pence" chants while revealing their mini-gallows. It was Democrats, not Trump, who sat near the Oval Office watching those Trump flag carrying insurrectionists attack Capitol Police and breach the Capitol building by breaking windows and doors without making any move to stop it for three hours until Ivanka begged him to do something.

This was all viewed on TV live by Americans and concerned viewers around the world. Republicans continue to insist that humans deny their own eyes and ears and minds and buy their bullshit spin over and over again. Shame upon the Republican lie machine and shame upon MAGAs who refuse the truth. If the truth shall set you free then MAGA has no liberty.
