Let’s begin with a stipulation that some Trump supporters will not like, but I think it’s important to restate: I’ve been highly and rightfully critical of the events of January 6, 2021. The Capitol riot, designed to disrupt the peaceful transfer of power, was a national disgrace — fueled by weeks of election-related lies from Donald Trump and senior people in his orbit. He bears a great deal of responsibility for what happened that day, even if he’s right to point out that many of his critics ignore some facts and details that complicate their narrative. I’ve said this consistently for years, and I still believe it. I also believe that those who seek to wield 1/6 as a source of political attacks do themselves no favors by papering over some of the realities mentioned above, or distorting and exaggerating what actually happened. Reality was bad enough; embellishments undermine their arguments. Polling has shown that most Americans generally agree with with criticisms of Trump related to the post-election discord of 2020, yet Trump won the 2024 election anyway because his opponents have failed on so many other fronts.
I also suspect that some voters were able to bring themselves to vote for Trump — or perhaps downplay the Capitol riot in their own minds — at least partially due to the shamelessness and hypocrisy of so many Democrats who were prosecuting a political case against him. For instance, House Democratic leader Hakeem Jeffries drew loud applause in the chamber last week, and viral hosannas on social media, over this apparent ‘gotcha’ moment:

As you can see, Jeffries is showcasing his one-liner across his platforms. But he himself indulged in cheap election denial after Donald Trump’s 2016 victory. In that clip, he is attempting to erase his own comments and conduct, counting on the media not to remind anyone of how he comported himself last time Trump won an election. But we remember:

‘Lie, cheat, steal, illegitimate.’ Much democracy; many norms. Spare us, Hakeem. Outgoing President Joe Biden just gave a presidential award to Democratic Congressman Bennie Thompson, who co-chaired the January 6th investigative committee. He was honored, we were told, for his commitment to “democracy” and “his lifelong dedication to safeguarding our Constitution.” This is the very same Bennie Thompson, in case you were curious: […]
