    There were many that did believe it. The Pillow Guy paid tens of thousands of dollars to have the video made and was so convinced it was true he offered five million dollars to anyone who could prove it wrong. Then backed out when the guy he hired to do the video said he had no proof. The law suit against him could cost him his business. You don't do things like that in what you know is fake. He got scammed good and convinced Trump it was true.

    I think Trump learned his lessen of doing anything to help the Democrats. Spent almost three years fighting that Russian hoax. If I were him, I wouldn't give the Democrats the time of day.

    What cause some people in a peaceful protest to get violent and able to enter the Capital either by breeching or freely entering?

    Lack of security to control the crowd around the Capital.

    Exactly…it is not “what caused 1/6”….it is why were a few hundred people allowed in the Capitol when the Capitol Police has a bigger budget than most big cities….. why even after forewarning, the appropriate force was not pre-assembled to control such an anticipated crowd … the records and communications of ALL the leadership should be looked at responsible for such derelict of duty on their part.

    The Pillow guy is a gullible moron. Jabba the Trunt is a gullible moron. Being stupid enough to believe obvious bullshit ain't a defense.

    Your opinion. The video was very convincing. Democrats have put out enough bullshit to float a boat.

    Being stupid enough to believe obvious bullshit ain't a defense. Say it with me: Being stupid enough to believe obvious bullshit ain't a defense. Flat-earthers, birthers and believers of the Big Lie are morons.

    Right, like most Liberals that believe Obama was one of the best ten Presidents? Closer to one of the worst.

    Most likely the manipulation of the electoral process by the Dems did very much contribute to the frustration of those present.

    Not counting the FBI assets, of course. They were being paid to be there so that the pot could be stirred.

    To hear some tell it later on, it was just a little fire at the Riechstag, nothing to see here folks, move along and by the way, it was just a little star on those shops, it was kind of pretty, they should be proud of their religion.

    Jabba the Trunt's MAGAT Mob breached the Capitol building. Bobby Lee and Jubal Early didn't get that close.

    And the Jan 6 committee will not touch what happened internally, it is all about trying to find some crimes to charge Trump and his associates which is FAR outside their commission and the Constitution and previous court rulings.

    No, they were peacefully marching to protest AT the Capital which happens routinely. It was when the security collapsed because a few got violent and were then able to take control of the perimeter and then breech the capital that it became a riot by some. Trump had nothing to do with that.

    There have been riots and "insurrections" at the Capital throughout it's history. The fact is most of those who entered the Capital were not violent and merely walked through after the security opened the doors to them. Why do you think the Dem leadership has refused to release all the videos from the security cameras?

    Have they released ANY of the security video? The side of the doors where Byrd shot Ashli would be a great way for people understand what happened but they play the silly hide and seek games I have come to expect from or House folks...

    Never has the security been or should be so lacked , even after forewarning... 1/6 should have never been allowed to happen with such little security. The guards were offered but not deployed and the budget of the Capitol police is greater than most big cities... Doing a REAL investigation and looking at all communication in our leadership would get to the bottom of who was responsible for such a derelict of duty on the oversight part of the security of the Capitol that day.
