Just a reminder: For 187 minutes on January 6, 2021, Trump supporters pummeled police officers, and
Trump did nothing.As Trump's supporters hunted down his Vice-President amid chants of "Hang Mike Pence!"
Trump did nothing.
While our country's elected Congressional representatives frantically hastened to take shelter from a violent, advancing mob,
Trump did nothing.
And when Trump supporters marched through the US Capitol carrying flags supporting Trump and the Confederacy--on their way to ransack Congressional offices and occupy the Senate chambers--
Trump did nothing.
Even when Trump's own staff and family implored him to stop the carnage--because they obviously believed (correctly) these were Trump supporters who would stop with his order to do so--
Trump did nothing.
Well, that's not entirely accurate.
Trump sat in the White House.
He told his staff he wished not to be bothered.
He called Congressional members hiding in the Senate chambers, attempting to solicit support to delay
certification of the election results.
He created a video that told this violent mob that he agreed with them and that they were very special.
That's what Trump did during the 187 minutes that the US Capitol--our Capitol--was under siege.
That's not a leader.
That's a selfish, cowardly, disgusting excuse for a human being.
And the GOP thinks such a piece of garbage should be President again?
Unlike Trump, you can do something.
Vote Biden.
