Ray Epps et al. and the FEDSURRECTION
Tenhigh replied to BillsFanNC's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
I think I was being pretty specific. If you think 1/6 was an insurrection, and Epps is on video telling people to storm the capitol, how is he not inciting insurrection? -

I think 1/6 was a riot and mass trespassing. But if you consider 1/6 as an attempted insurrection/coup, and someone is in the crowd telling people to storm the capitol, do you think that qualifies as inciting insurrection? With that caveat, I certainly would. -

I agree that Trump has been riling his people up for years, too. Since he really started his 1st presidential run, Trump started getting people whipped into a frenzy, and deserves the lion's share of moral responsibility for the Jan 6 event. Same with his supporters in Washington. But he's not the only one that has been sowing the seeds of divide. What do you think happens when Hillary calls Trump supporters deplorables? Then claims that the guy they voted for stole the election from her in 2016? And then 2 years of Russia-gate that ended up with Trump getting off? And CNN going full on attack mode for 4 years? Is a lot of it on Trump? Absolutely. Does everyone else own the fires they have stoked themselves? Of course we do. As for Jan 6, it was an event. It was a large protest that turned into a riot, with many police and civilians being assaulted. That mass riot turned into a mass trespassing when some of those idiots stormed the capitol. And by stormed, some scaled walls and knocked downs barricades, doors, and police to do it. As for the Jan 6 hearings? I can't see it as anything beyond political theater at this point.

I believe that Trump expected the protesters to march to the capital building and protest there. I think most Americans do. Do I think he expected it to go any further than just a loud bunch of a-holes protesting? He probably hoped so, but I'd be shocked if he was stupid enough to actually do anything about it.

Have you considered the fact that the committee, at least in part, could be over-dramatizing J6 event and be using the hearings largely as political theater? I sure hope he doesn't. Anyone that can make normal, decent people become lunatic garbage people really isn't good for this country. FWIW, Trump tends to bring the worst out in people on both sides of the aisle.
