A former admirer of the former president grilled the Democratic nominee for president on his actions during the riot on January 6 and how he handled the Covid-19 pandemie during his town hall meeting. Trump retaliated against the Capitol strike and referred to it as a “day of love.”
Romido, who claimed to be a former Republican, expressed his doubts about Trump’s tardiness in responding to the Capitol strike on January 6 by stating,” You know, you waited so long to take action while your followers were attacking the Capitol.
Trump said he was sorry for the harm and that the people who came came because they believed the vote was “rigged” were to blame.
” They did n’t come because of me. They came because of the vote. They thought the vote was a rigged poll, and that’s why they came. Some of those persons went over to the Capitol”, the former president said.
During the town hall, Trump even claimed that there were no weapons existing during the invasion, saying,” There were no weapons down there. We did n’t have guns. Despite testimony from the House January 6 committee showing that Trump was aware that many in the crowd were armed and that several rioters have been found guilty of carrying weapons during the assault, the others had guns, but we did n’t have guns.
He also cited the tragic death of rebel Ashli Babbitt, who was fatally shot by a Capitol police officer, as an illustration of the swift action being taken that morning. ” Ashley Babbitt was killed. Nothing was killed”.
Trump claimed that only a small number of people walked down the Capitol, that it was a “day of like” from the perspective of the “millions of persons of came” and that it could have been the largest party he has always addressed before.
” These are the people who walked down,” said one. Nothing sees or shows this small portion of the overall, which was a sizable portion. But that was a time of passion. From the aspect of the millions, it’s like hundreds of thousands. It might have been my biggest audience of all time. They asked me to speak”, he said.
” They asked me to respond. I went and I spoke, and I used the word calmly and patriotically”, Trump said.
Trump even repeated his intention to forgive most January 6 protesters if re-elected, calling them “political detainees” and “unbelievable republicans”.
Over 1, 500 individuals have been charged in connection with the Capitol attack, with about 1, 100 convicted.
