Trump says the election was the ‘real insurrection,’ defends the Capitol Riot as a ‘protest against the results’ and the ‘Fake News’ coverage of January 6 is a way to distract from Biden’s scandals

Former President Donald Trump on Wedneday said the 2020 election was the ‘real insurrection’ and justified the Capitol attack as a legitimate way to protest the results.

‘The Unselect Committee of partisan Democrats, and two very weak and pathetic RINOs, should come to the conclusion after spending many millions of dollars, that the real insurrection happened on November 3rd, the Presidential Election, not on January 6th – which was a day of protesting the Fake Election results,’ the ex-president claimed.

Trump also gave ex-Vice President Mike Pence a pat on the back for telling Sean Hannity that the media is only focused on the January 6 Capitol attack to distract from President Joe Biden’s failures.

‘Vice President Mike Pence’s statement during his interview with the great Sean Hannity very much destroys and discredits the Unselect Committees Witch Hunt on the events of January 6th,’ Trump said in a statement Wednesday. ‘It will continue anyways, however, because the Fake News doesn’t want to focus on Afghanistan, Russia, Taiwan and China, the Border, inflation, and a failing economy.’

Trump chimed in as members of the House select committee – who he described as ‘partisan Democrats, and two very weak and pathetic RINOs – were having trouble tracking down the ex-president’s social media head, Dan Scavino, to present him with a subpoena.
