He said that on twitter, while advocating for insurrection in a live speech. If he cared that much he would've gone on a public speech too, but that would've actually been heard by the target demographic
Sorry, but that's misinformation. He also said it in his speech, but they left that part out at the impeachment trial.
Classic Trump supporter here, posting sources that contradict their point as supporting their point because, out of eight statements, one weakly suggested peace while the other seven weakly suggested insurrection.
This is how con men win over the critical thinking challenged crowd.
Right, because critical thinking equals defending the majority opinion.
Critical thinking means reading an article with one point that agrees with your stance and seven points that contradict it and realizing it doesn't actually support your argument.
Critical thinking means you question what you read, hear, think, write, and say. If you were capable of critical thought, you'd have read your previous comment and realized it doesn't actually address my comment at all. It just makes an unrelated point. But you're not capable of even primary school level feats of cognition yet you still vote, and people like you are why American democracy is circling the drain. You just. Don't. Think.
Did you read the entire page?
Which of these statements strikes you as more of an incitement to violence, than, say, "I just don't even know why there aren't uprisings all over the country." or "This is a movement, I’m telling you, they’re not going to stop, and everyone beware, because they’re not going to stop before Election Day in November, and they’re not going to stop after Election Day. And everyone should take note of that, on both levels, that they’re not going to let up, and they should not, and we should not."?
id like to piggy back, youre really stupid and i hate you. i have no extra argument as everyone has shown you everything you need to see its obvious you treat reality like religion where your opinion intrinsically holds truth.
the best part of reality is despite what you want to believe, trump still incited violence and insurrection. your opinion on the matter doesnt change the reality. this isnt christianity this is real life.
I’m sorry you feel that way. Must be rough.
its probably more rough to boot lick someone that doesn't like you
I'm assuming you still think your father is coming back too?
