I found it striking how Trump did nothing to quell the fervor.

Yes and it will be instantly shot down by the Supreme Court.
You can’t simply accuse someone of a crime, forego his right to a defense, and sentence him.
Do you have any idea how unconstitutional that is?

What was he supposed to do?
Do you even know what we are talking about? Nobody is talking about sentencing anyone to anything. The States decide who is or is not on the ballot. It is not a "sentence".
Exercise responsibility to quell a worsening
potentially violent situation. Speak to them
to inspire civility & calm. He did none of that.
Pick up his phone.

It doesn’t work like that lol.
There is a chain of command specifically so a president does not have access to a personal military unit.
There are many people involved in this chain, starting with the mayor and there were many delays from many issues, all of which had nothing to do with Trump.
Nice try

He told them to protest peacefully and they ignored him lol.
They weren’t in a listening mood
You are mistaken about this.
His effort was minimal & perfunctory.
While not a criminal offense, he failed
to rise to the occasion.

They ignored him already, what exactly was he supposed to do?
Jump up and down?
Lol
That would've been better.
And exhorted them to cool off.

Nope, I just verified it actually. The president doesn’t deploy the national guard he can only authorize the pentagon to do it after they request it, which took them hours.
Besides the DC national guard does not have units on standby meaning it would have taken 8-10 hours to call them up and deploy them.
Our process was so delayed that other states were actually able to get guard units there before DC could.
And again, none of this has anything to do with Trump, he authorized their release instantly after the request was made.
You really need to do even a tiny bit of research before you post

Ok lol
You keep repeating the same stuff after I debunk you.
Like a broken record you have no interest in the truth.
Probably time to put you on ignore
Oh, newbies...so full of fervor & certainty.
But a few stay long enuf to become
interesting conversationalists.
We will see.

Hopefully you reach that point one day.
I hope the same for you too.

No, he did. He worked the crowd up by repeatedly lying to them. You may not understand this, but a judge will.

Possibly. The USSC has lost all credibility lately.
But who knows, with all of the pressure on Thomas's bribe taking perhaps they will do the right thing for once.

The only correct thing to do is to convict Trump of partaking in an insurrection then dole out punishment.
