You know damn well, my biker gang would roll up, heavily armed and ready for war. Now, let’s imagine there was a shooting, I didn’t tell them to grab their guns, or we are going to fight, but my intention was clear to them but maybe to someone outside of the gang, who heard me say that, they didn’t think this would happen based on my words, nor did I ever tell them to directly do what I wanted them to do.
An angry group of armed men, who have undying support for Trump, believe every word he says and take things to extreme, and in some cases believe him to be their god, (this would be his gang) when Trump says let’s meet up and let’s head to the Capitol, we need to take back our country, and fight like hell or whatever, much like my biker gang, those people are going to arm up and prepare to “take back our country” and “fight like hell” in whichever way they are fit, and they will take it to an extreme.
Trump has a history of extremely fiery speech, that can be taken in any number of ways, such as telling the proud boys, “Stand back, and stand by” or whatever he said.
You aren’t an undying loyal Trump supporter that believes everything he says, or think he’s some sort of god, like the ones who stormed the Capitol. What they heard Trump say, and what you heard Trump say have two completely different interpretations.
So once again, you have people, who stormed the Capitol, telling us, Trump told us to do it. Why shouldn’t we believe them?
Do you think when the biker dude is in court for murder, and he says my boss told us to do it, that the judge is going to believe me when I said “no I didn’t your honor, I said “let’s go talk to them.””. I really meant just talk to them? Of course not. I’ll be also charged with murder.
