Original Note:
By all legal standards, Trump neither incited, nor "led" a violent attempt to overthrow the government. Vandalism and vigilantism are more accurate terms when pertaining to the January 6 occupation of Congress. By all definitions, "insurrection" is misplaced here. https://www.wsj.com/articles/stop-calling-jan-6-an-insurrection-capitol-riot-civil-disorder-insurgency-protest-first-amendment-11641417543 https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/opinion/fbi-confirms-there-was-no-insurrection-on-january-6
