    Tons of examples, before and after Election Day, but first, a relevation;

    Trump and Guthrie's NBC Town Hall Transcript;

    Savannah Guthrie:
    Just this week, you retweeted to your 87 million followers, a conspiracy theory that Joe Biden orchestrated to have SEAL Team Six, the Navy SEAL Team Six, killed to cover up the fake death of Bin Laden. Now, why would you send a lie like that to your followers?

    President Trump:
    That was a retweet. That was an opinion of somebody.....I’ll put it out there. People can decide for themselves. I don’t take a position..

    --------------

    Well, here's another example of Trump's "I'll put it out there. People can decide for themselves. I don't take a position''

    August 2019, Trump tweeted about a man he picked to be chairman of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors;

    "My only question is, who is our bigger enemy, Jerome Powell, or Chairman Xi?''

    https://www.cnbc.com/2019/08/23/tru...-chairman-powell-or-chinese-president-xi.html

    ------------------

    Fastforward;

    Trump's propaganda evidently and alarmingly worsened after Election Day;

    Examples;

    1. Trump called the Georgia Secretary of State an ''Enemy of the people''

    Results;

    ............Georgia's secretary of state and his staff have evacuated their officies at the state Capitol as armed protesters gathered outside

    ............Armed protesters surround home of Michigan secretary of state

    2. Trump’s tweet Wednesday afternoon came about an hour after Pence’s statement in which he refused orders from Trump to block President-elect Joe Biden’s confirmation as president during the Electoral College vote certification process.

    “Mike Pence didn’t have the courage to do what should have been done to protect our Country and our Constitution

    https://www.newsobserver.com/news/politics-government/article248313445.html

    Results;

    ''Hang Mike Pence''

    -------------------------

    ONCE AGAIN, tons of examples, however, Trump's propaganda evidently and alarmingly worsened after Election Day, AND endangered people's lives.

    A coincidence?

    2. Trump’s tweet Wednesday afternoon came about an hour after Pence’s statement in which he refused orders from Trump to block President-elect Joe Biden’s confirmation as president during the Electoral College vote certification process.

    Pence's statement;

    1:02 pm

    https://twitter.com/Mike_Pence/status/1346879811151605762/photo/1

    Trump's tweet Wednesday afternoon came about an hour after Pence's statement, thus, approx. 2 pm

    AND

    Around 2 p.m.

    Protesters wearing "Make America Great Again" apparel and carrying Confederate flags make their way up the exterior steps of the Capitol and begin pushing through barricades.

    Thus, prior to entering the Capitol building, the protesters/rioters already knew Pence wouldn't overturn the election results.

    An informed Repub base, who's beliefs are founded in objective truth (not, for example, birthrism), would have prevented a lying demagogue like Trump from ever getting close to the nomination, let alone the presidency.

    Trump is the symptom of an underlying cause. The belief in right wing media lies. Those they create, and those they reinforce.

    go back decades to the Central Park 5 and he still wants to murder these innocent guys.
    more recent was him testing the racist waters with Obama / Kenya and found welcoming warmth from haters
    then the real fun started and hasn't ended

    You sent out info someone else says, without saying it came from them and you have no opinion, then you are in de facto saying it's your opinion. Dumb.
