Jan. 6 Committee's Elaine Luria: "In summary: President Trump lit the flame, poured gasoline on the fire, and sat by in the White House dining room for hours, watching the fire burn. And today he continues to fan those flames. This was an extreme dereliction of his duty."
Criminal Referrals from the Select Committee:
The 1/6 committee refers Trump and his Henchmen to the DoJ for
- 18 USC 15129c)(2): obstruction of the vote certification
- 18 USC 371: conspiracy to defraud the US in the form of obstructing the certification of the election
- 18 USC 371 and 18 USC 1001: conspiracy to present false statements — in the form of fake elector certifications — to the National Archives
- 18 USC 2383: inciting, assisting, or aiding an insurrection
Why did Trump unleash the MAGA hordes on the Capitol? Maybe as simple as this:
Former President Trump told his then-chief of staff “this is embarrassing,” and “I don’t want people to know that we lost.”
What a fucking narcissistic Cry-Baby. Trump just couldn't stomach the reality that he lost fair and square to Joe Biden. So pathetic. The Cry-Baby was willing to burn down the Constitution, trash our Democracy, just because he was embarrassed. Yikes. It's time for the DOJ to charge this very sick, deluded and corrupt human being for crimes against U.S. Democracy. Let it come down!
