Related: About this forumFuture of GOP as protesters rally in support of January 6th rioters - CBS News
Law enforcement increased security measures ahead of Saturday's protest in Washington, D.C., as demonstrators showed support for the rioters who were charged for their roles in the attack on the U.S. Capitol in January. A recent poll shows 61% of Republicans say former President Trump was not responsible for the attack, and about 27% of Republicans say it's very or somewhat likely he will be reinstated as president by the end of the year. Jennifer Lim, founder and executive director of Republican Women for Congress, and Kevin Sheridan, former Republican National Committee spokesman, joined CBSN to discuss the future of the GOP. 09/18/2021.

I often wonder if they ever see 5 minutes of news, but then I've seen clips here of the lying liars and ridiculous propaganda that masquerades as "news" out there and that explains a lot.

(57,073 posts)3. It sure does
But it makes me wonder what they heard TFG say when he was inciting insurrection?
Did they hear different words?
Or just think it's ok because he is a caucasian male?

Numerous rioters have said they were "invited" and fully expected TFG to be there to lead the "protest."

(57,073 posts)7. Yes he sure did
But the ones who think he is not responsible...

(202,970 posts)8. The thing is - which he keeps "forgetting" - is that there are videos!
He can deny any and everything he wants forgotten, but the rest of the country has seen the videos!

Surreal the way he & they feel anything they think is objective fact, but it's far from that.
