Trump is responsible in a very *detailed* sense of the word, as well. Trump was
involved up to his fat face in the planning of the insurrection. That's why he
was so desperately trying to prevent White House notes, call logs, visitor logs
and more from being turned over to the House Select Committee. Those will show,
beyond doubt, that Trump was organizing and planning the insurrection from the
Oval Office.

Trump was *consumed* with *illegally* overturning the election from 11/03/2020
right up to 01/20/2021.

Look at you: you have nothing positive to talk about regarding our
current failed president and have to fall back talking about a guy
who has not been in office for quite some time now.

| It is now a public fact that Donald Trump and his cabal,
| including Republican members of Congress, attempted a coup
| on Jan. 6, 2021. This de facto conspiracy was
| sophisticated, multidimensional and nationwide in scale,
| and included what became a terrorist attack on the U.S.
| Capitol. We know that Donald Trump was aware of at least
| some details of this plot and was involved in its planning
| and execution.
|
| To deny these obvious facts is to either be a believer in
| the Big Lie and supporter of Trump and the Republican
| Party's war on American democracy or to be in an extreme
| state of willful denial. As a practical matter, it is much
| the same thing.
|
| Within a few weeks, the House select committee
| investigating the events of Jan. 6, 2021, will finally hold
| televised public hearings. Their primary task will be to
| explain to the American people how serious the events of
| that day actually were and to establish a case that Donald
| Trump and his co-conspirators should be punished for their
| crimes.

The current administration is responsible for food shortages, massive
inflation, uncontrolled borders, riots in the streets and a recession
(shortly) and Bradley spends his whole time discussing "sedition".
"He" is beyond laughable.
