This is a very important point. It makes me fking sick, but we have to try and look at this event through the eyes of the attackers. Most of them truly believe the attack on congress was a "patriotic" act to defend our country. It wasn't just a white supremacist tantrum.

I know it's hard, but when you understand that most of these insurrectionist believed they were saving America; you can see who the real criminals/terrorists are! The people who fed them lies, then sicced them on congress are the REAL terrorists here!

As much as I hate these moronic scumbags, it irritates me when democrats mischaracterize this as solely a "white supremacist" attack. These people truly believed they were trying to save America (fkn moronic I know). And we need to try and understand that.

What was said when Mccarthy begged Trump to call off the attack? Who heard the conversation? Do we have record of the phone call?
