In reply to the discussion: FULL STOP! We now have enough evidence to put him away 10 times over [View all]Elliot Waves
(68 posts)89. I went ahead and pulled up the whole speech
Here's a couple of excerpts where it's relevant. Draw your own conclusions as you would if you were a juror..
From page 6 & 7:
"Now it is up to Congress to confront this egregious assault on our democracy. And after this,
were going to walk down and Ill be there with you. Were going to walk down were going
to walk down. Anyone you want, but I think right here, were going to walk down to the Capitol
and were going to cheer on our brave senators and congressmen and women, and were
probably not going to be cheering so much for some of them. Because youll never take back
our country with weakness. You have to show strength and you have to be strong."
"We have come to demand that Congress do the right thing and only count the electors who
have been lawfully slated. Lawfully slated."
"I know that everyone here will soon be marching over to the Capitol building to peacefully
and patriotically make your voices heard. Today, we will see whether Republicans stand strong
for the integrity of our elections. But whether or not they stand strong for our country our
country, our country has been under siege for a long time. Far longer than this four-year period."
From page 24:
"So we are going to walk down Pennsylvania Avenue I love Pennsylvania Avenue and
we are going to the Capitol. And we are going to try and give the Democrats are hopeless,
they are never voting for anything, not even one vote but we are going to try to give our
Republicans the weak ones because the strong ones dont need any of our help going to try
and give them the kind of pride and boldness that they need to take back our country. So lets
walk down Pennsylvania Avenue."
"I want to thank you all. God bless you and God bless America. Thank you all for being here.
This is incredible."
"Thank you very much."
"Thank you."

We agree on the desired outcome, just not the progress towards that outcome.

Absolutely. I think one reason is those in power, as much as they may despise FORMER President

+1, and the incitement anyone would be charged with was him telling the crowd to go to the capital

He can argue that, but without his virulent Senate supporters, it will be met with cold silence.

Page 24; immediately before the cited text. Right near the end of the rant -er- speech.

At minimum there's enough to *CHARGE* Putin's Whore with a crime, that's not done either.
