Most Americans say Trump should be convicted

NC

You guys seem to think that unless Trump says the exact words, "attack the capitol" then he is not inciting the crowd to riot. Just like the telephone call with the Ukrainian President in which the quid pro quo was obvious, but just because he did not say the actual words, you cling to the position that it did not happen.

For two months, Trump refused to accept reality, and egged his followers on that their election had been stolen from them. Then he invited them to DC to take back their country. Then he put on a big show for them, riling them up and sending them to the Capitol and told them,

"Our country has had enough. We will not take it anymore and that’s what this is all about. To use a favorite term that all of you people really came up with, we will stop the steal. Today I will lay out just some of the evidence proving that we won this election, and we won it by a landslide."

"not going to be cheering so much for some of them because you’ll never take back our country with weakness. You have to show strength, and you have to be strong."

At this point, defending him is partisan hackery and evidence of a lack of integrity.

Actions are also somewhat important. Kamala Harris was behind the effort to bail out from jail in Minneapolis the protestors who were arrested not for peaceful protesting, but for acts of violence. This action therefore put criminals back on the street. Do you defend her actions? If so why? Should impeachment proceedings not be brought against her? Surely more than a few of the thugs who were released went back to burning, looting, etc.

I in no way defend the words of Trump at the rally. It would appear that plans were already in the works to carry out this half ### poorly planned attack. If it can be shown that Trump knew of these plans or approved and desired what transpired, then not only should he be convicted in the Senate and barred from running for office, but he should be charged criminally.

It might be interesting to hear the evidence before reaching a conclusion of guilt. Anyone who has reached a conclusion of guilt or innocence before even hearing the evidence is not a worthy juror and that includes the GOP Senators too, much less the American citizens.Chuck Schumer and Maxine Waters to name a few have likewise used language that encouraged unacceptable behavior. Their words could have just as easily led to injuries or deaths. Neither have faced censure for their behavior. Yes, what about is correct, but it should go both ways should it not?
