And the beat goes on…
Former President Donald Trump swept into Dallas on Sunday spinning tall tales about the 2020 election and the crowd that mobbed the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6 hoping to keep him in the White House despite his defeat.
…“The Biden administration is turning the border into the single biggest disaster in American history, and perhaps in world history,” Trump said with signature hyperbole, lamenting what he called an open door policy to welcome “savage MS-13 gang members,” drug smugglers and illegal migration.
…“What was Donald Trump right about?” the ex-president’s son Donald Trump Jr. asked Friday. “Everything!” the CPAC crowd shouted.
The ex-president spent the day downplaying the Jan. 6 attack.
“There was such love at that rally. You had over a million people there. They were there for one reason … We had a corrupt election. We had a rigged election. We had a stolen election,” Trump said on Fox News, describing the scene as “a love fest …They were peaceful people. These were great people.”
Estimates put the crowd that day at no more than 50,000, not over a million. Of those, several thousand lay siege to the Capitol, bashing in windows and doors, attacking police with flagpoles, bike racks, hockey sticks and pepper spray and sending lawmakers into hiding for hours.
…
My bold.
Biggest disaster in world history?
Over a million people attended a love fest on Jan. 6?
About 3,000 attended this shit fest.
