Trump Once Again Expresses Solidarity With Jan. 6 Domestic Terrorists
Huff PostLOADING ERROR LOADING Less than three weeks before the election that could return him to the White House, Donald Trump again expressed solidarity with the violent domestic terrorists who assaulted the Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021, leaving 140 police officers injured and five dead. “That was a day of love,” Trump said Wednesday evening as he repeated a number of lies about the day that saw the bloody culmination of his failed coup attempt. “Trump knows what he did and who his confederates are,” said Mac Stipanovich, a longtime Republican consultant in Florida who on Wednesday publicly endorsed Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris for president. “Maintaining the fiction that he was an innocent bystander is becoming increasingly difficult as the strain of the campaign increases and his cognitive ability declines.” Finally, while Trump may claim “nothing done wrong,” the Department of Justice has, to date, charged 1,532 of those involved in the attack on the Capitol with crimes.
