that his investigation didn t come up with any goods, trump was very angry. - i m gonna walk down, and i ll be there with you, to the capitol. [all chanting] usa! usa! usa! - beat me over the head! [crowd shouting] [crosstalk] - stop the steal! stop the steal! - fuck yeah! - i think perhaps one of the most fundamental examples of a difference about what happened were the events around january the 6th. i think that is a fundamental moment in this country s history. and as we have seen, there are people who have tried to downplay it. they have tried to marginalize it. they have tried to mainstream the conversation around it, and there is another side that has been much more clear about the threat january 6 poses to our democracy, and what was at stake, and who was responsible for it. - the hysteria around the january 6th protests continues reaching new levels of insanity
it s that direction. crowd: usa, usa, usa! (crowd shouting indistinctly) president trump: we fight, and we fight like hell, and if you don t fight like hell, you re not gonna have a country anymore. (crowd shouting) crowd: fight for trump! fight for trump! (crowd shouting) (banging) (crowd shouting) crowd: stop the steal! stop the steal! stop the steal!
(crowd shouting) crowd: usa, usa, usa! (crowd shouting) jamie raskin: people died that day. officers ended up with head damage and brain damage. people s eyes were gouged. an officer had a heart attack. an officer lost three fingers that day. two officers have taken their own lives. senators, this cannot be our future. this cannot be the future of america. we cannot have presidents inciting and mobilizing mob violence against our government and our institutions because they refuse to accept the will of the people
it turned out that those marches were very important, because trump was able to attract to washington that hard core element that was willing to engage in violence. (crowd shouting) crowd: stop the steal. stop the steal. jamie raskin: we obviously didn t take seriously enough an organized attack on the u.s. government and on our constitution and on our election. man: we love trump. we love trump. crowd: we love trump. we love trump. tommy raskin: dad? jamie raskin: yes? tommy raskin: do you care if i jump off shortly thereafter? jamie raskin: i think that s what everybody s going to do, they re going to ask their questions and then get out of town. yeah, that s cool. aaron: thank you all so much for joining us. now, without further ado, i will give it over to congressman raskin, as i know time is limited. jamie raskin: thank you guys all for indulging me
i m in a great mood. i m in a great mood. it s all over, you know? (helicopters whirring) crowd: stop the steal. stop the steal. stop the steal. stop the steal. stop the steal. reporter: president trump is still insisting that he won the election, which of course, he did not, and that the election was somehow marred by massive fraud. it was not. reporter: the president suffered the latest in a nearly unbroken string of legal defeats. reporter: president trump s supporters, undeterred with some, including members of the far right extremist group, the proud boys, rallying to support him this weekend in washington. crowd: fuck antifa. man: fuck antifa. crowd: fuck antifa. man: fuck antifa. jamie raskin: there were two million maga marches after the election. crowd: america first. america first. america first. america first. jamie raskin: most members of congress, certainly most democrats, paid no attention at all to them because the election was over.
