Trump told the Proud Boys to "stand back and stand by." Then when he wanted them to come to DC to stop an election, he said so. So they did. I don't see that as a distraction from the other issues. I see it as fundamental to whether or not we'll ever be able to address them.

Trump never admits losing. He's done it his whole life. He has neither the smarts, the balls, or the focus to attempt an insurrection. Trump is a symptom of our national problems. Focus on them, not show trials.

If the people with actual governing power in this situation lose their seats and go to jail, then it would mean something important. If only the zealot followers pay a price then it means next to nothing. The rich & powerful in this country are rarely held accountable.

Our political system is unable to address any issues that are important to the working people of this nation. That inability and impotence was the cause of Trump’s election and the January 6th mob violence. The committee hearing will make no difference.

IF YOU WANT TO DAMAGE DONALD TRUMP POLITICALLY: FOCUS ON THE FACT THAT HE DIDN’T TAKE “THE WALK” TO THE CAPITAL-EXPOSING HIMSELF AS A COWARD AND BETRAYING POLITICIAN LIKE ALL POLITICIANS SAVE REP. BARBRA LEE. Dems are using “stand back” line politically, not legally-usual shame.
