An MSNBC discussion with Pittsburgh-area Trump supporters that aired Monday morning highlights how average conservatives really feel about January 6th.
While mainstream media and Democrat politicians continue to push the narrative that the massive protest was “worse than 9/11” or the attack on Pearl Harbor, these working-class Republicans showed they understand what actually took place.
For example, when MSNBC host Elise Jordan told the focus group Pennsylvania GOP gubernatorial candidate Doug Mastriano was “at the insurrection” and that he breached “a restricted area,” one man explained Capitol Police were filmed removing barriers and holding open doors for demonstrators to enter the building.
“They opened the gates and let them in,” one man said, with another guy noting Mastriano “didn’t strike anybody” and “didn’t hurt anybody.”
A woman in the focus group pointed out the only person who died on January 6th was the unarmed female protester Ashli Babbitt, and the MSNBC analyst incorrectly claimed, “A police officer did die.”
Explaining the facts to the mainstream media reporter, a couple of the Trump supporters said officer Brian Sicknick died of a stroke the day after the incident, which is accurate.
Perhaps realizing she was not as informed as the focus group, Jordan moved on and asked what they thought about January 6th overall.
Jordan also echoed a recent claim made by Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) that the protesters spread poop on the walls of the U.S. Capitol.
Avoiding falling for the bait, several of the Trump voters said the scene on Jan. 6th was nothing compared to the BLM riots of the summer before where cities were burned to the ground, billions of dollars in damages was caused and dozens of people were killed.
One woman noted “antifa” was spotted instigating the violence at the Capitol on January 6th as well.
The Pittsburgh conservatives also criticized the Biden administration for holding several individuals in jail as political prisoners despite the fact they never committed any vandalism or assault on the infamous day.
Next, the mainstream media reporter asked the group if they think President Trump could have stopped the violence.
Again proving to be more knowledgeable on the subject than Jordan, the GOP voters informed MSNBC viewers the initial breach of the Capitol took place while Trump was still speaking and that he specifically advocated for a “peaceful” rally.
The overload of truth in the brief segment was too much to handle for MSNBC, which brought on a panel of eight left-wing propagandists to pick apart the claims.
Joe and Mika Scarborough of MSNBC‘s “Morning Joe,” Democrat charlatan Reverand Al Sharpton and a slew of others chimed in.
Hypocrite Joe Scarborough was upset the conservatives called the Jan. 6th protests “mostly peaceful,” which is obviously the phrase used by the left throughout the George Floyd BLM riots that caused more death and damage than Jan. 6th by far.
Flat-out lying to his audience, Joe then said, “There were four cops who died” on January 6th.
Joe Scarborough misled the MSNBC audience by making that statement when in reality, officer Brian Sicknick died of a stroke over 24 hours after the protest, officer Jeffrey Smith of the Metropolitan Police Department killed himself on January 15 and officer Howard S. Liebengood of the Capitol Police died by suicide four days after Jan. 6th.
Two Metropolitan Police Department officers who responded to the Capitol on Jan. 6 committed suicide in July, six months after January 6th.
The “Morning Joe” host admitted he has many friends who hold the same views about the Capitol incident as the GOP focus group and said he can’t discuss the topic with them if he wants them to remain friends, “Because they’ve been lied to.”
Yes, the person who just lied minutes earlier about four police officers dying due to the January 6th protest says his friends are being lied to.
Mainstream media is too out of touch with reality to understand the segment backfired and exposed MSNBC content as the low-IQ drivel it truly is.
Of course, the big fish the left is using Jan. 6th to go after is Donald Trump.
