What did Trump do once the Capitol had been breached?
Jan 13, 2021, 9:27 AM
|
|
Did he immediately call a press conference or make one of his White House videos to tell the rioters to stop? He had just told them to march on the Capitol. Why didn't he issue a call for peace?
At what point did he finally release the video telling them that they were "special" and that he loved them and they should go home now? How many had been injured and killed by the point Trump was convinced to do a single thing about it?

seems a lot more time effective than waiting on media members to gather to go to a live feed of news networks that no one watches during work hours.

What about that Emergency Text system he implemented?

Also, you are aware of the timing of his stupid video vs the Capitol break-in right?

Did he do his best to stop it? Did he try? The people with him have reported that he was happy when it was happening. I think the word that was used was "giddy".

was stolen and how much he loved the rioters?
That was, at best, a Willie Wonka "stop, don't do that" response.

He set up a tailgating tent to watch the festivities.

And ignored calls from the Capitol. And complained that the rioters looked "low class", but was enthusiastic about the rioting. All pretty standard, normal stuff for a POTUS in times of national crisis.

actually, looked into that, the tent video was from a rally over the summer, I assume you thinking of the one where Gloria is playing in the background and sniffles McTrump is gleefull?

an aide, if I can remember the blur of last week. I know the video you're talking about--that may be where the "tailgating" trope came from.

That he refused to call in the National Guard right away is pretty damning for his case.
