Show me where exactly he did anything to try to prevent more outrage from his base. And then let's compare that to everything he said and did to try ginning it up.
Why should he? It was a political rally, with the express purpose of trying to put pressure on Congress. I think Trump would have been delighted if 200,000 people would have marched on the Capitol, waiving signs and chanting slogans.
There's a problem with political expression in America? Or only that expression that is allowed?

I personally don't give a shit because it's not anything new.
Your lack of intellectual curiosity does not become you.

Fine, okay, let's accept the premise that there were firestarters in the crowd. It doesn't detract from the fact that the crowd had a choice to not, you know, disrupt a presidential election and make our democracy an international laughing stock.
Oh, but that is a BFD. What if those firestarters were acting on the instructions of their handlers? What if those firestarters were actually Federal agents? And why do you give Shaman four years in prison and let Epps walk?

Funny how the ones who said fuck this and went home weren't even charged with anything.
WTF does that have to do with the price of rice in China?

Bad argument. He successfully antagonized their outrage, and then the outraged crowd expressed their outrage by attacking Capitol Police officers, breaking into the Capitol and disrupting a presidential election.
That has nothing to do with whether or not it's legal to talk publicly about politics in America.

Then get the evidence.

And why do you give Shaman four yars in prison and let Epps walk?
One doesn't have to do with the other. Yeah, that Qanon dipshit should spend many years in prison.

All you're focused on is what the bad liberals did in response to an incident that never had to happen in the first place, if MAGA nutters hadn't broken the law.

I remember a number of people here saying the Proud Boys were just a great bunch of guys.
Well, they fucking weren't a great bunch of guys.
You can go on about FBI plots and lack of security all day, but it doesn't make them into a great bunch of guys, any more than it makes Alex Jones into a truth-teller.

Kinda hard to do, when Ax's unbiased committee would release no video or ask any pertinent questions.
I have higher hopes for the GOP led committee...Which, BTW, let the Dems pretty much seat their own members (with a few exceptions, such as Schiff-fer-brains), instead of cherry-picking.

Do tell...No, and I didn't imply that anywhere. I'm just pointing out that what was being said about those particular folk was way off-base.
Obviously, there was a huge mix of people at the protests. Some of them were people with lots of problems. And they brought those problems with them. And some, I assume, were good people.

The gay community has already appropriated the word "proud". Add "boys" to it, and the phrase all but sashays.

You think that’s why they don’t seem to like women?
