There's a president Trump who knew there's a crowd that is armed, dangerous and full of extremists, he knew because his secret service told him. Trump then told these fine people to go to Congress, having zero reason to believe that they will be decent and peaceful, since again, he knew they were armed and dangerous. After the inevitable then happened, Trump watched it unfold on TV for several hours. He could have ordered the national guard and chose not to. He could have ended it with a tweet and chose not to. Instead, he edged them on by insisting on twitter how Mike Pence lacked courage and failed him by not breaking his constitutional duty and, to Trump's great and visible ire, confirmed an election result that was found to be legit by all states and all courts that looked into it.
So of course the logical thing is to blame... Nancy Pelosi?
People are responsible for their own actions.
It was a mostly peaceful protest in which some bad actors made bad decisions, some good people got swept up in the moment and made stupid decisions, and the vast majority peacefully protested. More and more video is coming out, exposing some of the false narratives, which is interesting to see.
Nancy admitted what she did, which may warrant looking into.
