Kaiser's comment in reference to Trump that "I think what he wanted..." is just a crazy statement. To say it wasn't peaceful while disregarding the many months of destruction in American cities under the title "mostly peaceful" he is completely wrong here. Trump (like him or loathe him) said "go peacefully and patriotically and make your voices heard", did he use the word "fight"? if he did I would ask how often have we heard the word "fight; Stacy Abrams, Hilary Clinton , Al Gore.... Trumps demand of Pence was met with a simple; "No" This was not insurrection. If it was, then so was EVERY riot dubbed "uprisings" for the last 60 years including the armed take over of the Sacramento capitol by black panthers in 1968.
