Trump’s legal team also tried to throw cold water on the idea in a filing earlier this week, writing that the “events of January 6 were not an ‘insurrection’ as they did not involve an organized attempt to overthrow or resist the U.S. government.”

Trump disagrees, apparently.

“They kept saying about what I said right after the insurrection,” he said outside Mar-a-Lago after arguments concluded in Washington, D.C. “I think it was an insurrection caused by Nancy Pelosi.

    We must have been using different news sources over the last 8-9 years. Hell, there are websites dedicated to just counting his number of lies.

    I think it is pretty much common knowledge at this point that whenever he opens his mouth, he is lying.

    His base doesn’t care and everyone else is used to it, so headlines like “Donald Trump lied again” are pretty redundant. He is still called out in his lies in most articles that I read though. It’s just not the headline anymore.

    I definitely wouldn’t say that reporting on the lead candidate being a jackass is criminal, but you do you.

      That link is pay-walled.

      I’d say giving equal airtime to an insurrectionist fraudster and rapist is pretty borderline. The only time the word Trump is mentioned it should be prefaced by “Proven Criminal and Liar”

      edit: here’s a non-paywalled version it’s a pretty thin article from 3 years ago when Cheeto was still pres. If anything it proves my point, they’re still covering all the bullshit he says 3 years later. Stop giving him a platform so his sycophants have to seek out what he says.

        Whatever. I’m not going to argue with a stranger on the internet. Keep your weird beliefs about it being criminal to interview people.
