When Trump repeatedly told his supporters to "stop the steal" What do you believe he was saying?
Clearly not what you believe he was saying.
Certainly, I never heard a call to violence.
Did they in anyway have any legal authority or power to stop the election?
Stop the steal does not equal stop the election.
At most I think he expected a protest.
Which, last I heard, was legal.
The only thing available to them was physical force
Or protesting.
"Resist" what the rallying cry 4 years ago. "Stop the Steal" falls right into the same vein, in my humble opinion.
Or do you think "Resist" was also a call to violence by the left?
as there is no legal means for a rag tag group of lunatics to over turn a free and fair election.
By repeatedly claiming his supporters had the power to over turn the results of an election "stolen" from him Trump incited the violence that took place a the capitol.
There is a whole lot of assumption in this leap of logic that I'm not willing to make.
You are also crediting Trump with foresight bordering on precognition, the likes of which only masterminds and supervillains possess. I find it hard to believe you would bestow such genius to someone you simultaneously believe to be a incompetent simpleton.
