Trump causes confusion by sharing meme calling Jan 6 a ‘government staged riot’ even though he was in power - eviltoast

The meme has been liked nearly 9,000 times and shared 2,400 times as of Monday. In reaction to Mr Trump’s repost, journalist Aaron Rupar sarcastically wrote on Twitter: “rubbing my last 2 brain cells together as I try to remember who ran the government on January 6.”

The former president shared the meme despite a House committee that investigated January 6 declaring Mr Trump the “central cause” of the day’s events. “None of the events of January 6th would have happened without him,” the House panel wrote in its final report.

    What amazes me is that they’ll do it again.

    They’re all living vicariously through his “sticking it to The Man” act. They love him because this is what they think they would do if they were in power. They cheer him getting away with it because it’s exactly how they would write fan fiction about themselves (were they literate).
