Corresponds with the clip I viewed. Incitement is a bit of a stretch.
I imagine one would have to factor in the overall climate and the fact that firearms were being brandished.
I don't think incitement is a far stretch at all. He actively set them on Pence, for example.
Furthermore, the fact that he retreated, despite assuring his fans he would march with them to stop the steal, via limousine to a secure bunker kinda strongly hints at suspicion of nefarious ill-doings.
Man, he's up to his eyeballs in it.
"Storming the Capitol" and "riot" is media spin for the ignorant ones to parrot.
We walked to the Congress milled around the Western end, a dozen or so entered the building and came out moments later. No rioting, no burning and no violence. A curfew was announced and we left, immediately. Some politicians saw an opportunity to take advantage of the event using their media, and that's what happened.
Had the law been followed with an audit in the contested states, there would have been no rally on the 6th. Instead, the ballots were destroyed and all voting irregularities, and cheating was ignored.
The election was stolen, the rally goers on the 6th behaved extremely well considering the crime committed. Trump should have been President a decade ago when the people were saner.
