The latest public hearing of the House Select Committee investigating the events of January 6, 2021 pretty much removed any doubt the failed former president called on protestors to march on the Capitol, not in a spontaneous expression of doubt about the election, but in a planned out effort to overturn Joe Biden's election.
Although he was surrounded in many cases by crazy conspiracy mongers, tRump, in the words of Liz Cheney, was a 76 year old man, not an impressionable child and should be held responsible for his actions which included the intimidation of Congress to prevent it from doing its constitutional duty. The actions of the mob resulted in several deaths and many injuries among the Capitol police force which was overwhelmed by the sheer number of attackers.
The evidence of tRump's guilt by a preponderance of evidence is self evident. The Committee will no doubt make a criminal referral to the DOJ when the hearings are done. The ball will then be in Merrick Garland's court.
