Trump appeared on Maria Bartiromo’s show this morning and basically called for the police officer who shot Ashli Babbit to be prosecuted — or lynched. He seems to be hinting that the Democrats put him up to shooting Babbit for political gain.
Also he pretty much confirms that he’s running:
Remember that brief moment in time when Fox News was reluctant to push big lies about the 2020 election for fear of being sued? That’s long gone
“The Supreme Court did not have the courage to take it up, and they should be ashamed of themselves” — Trump is still lamenting that the Supreme Court didn’t step in to throw the election for him
“There was such love at that rally … the love in the air, I’ve never seen anything like it” — Trump has completely rewritten the history of the deadly January 6 insurrection he instigated
Trump describes Ashli Babbitt, who was part of a mob that was trying to lynch the VP, as an “innocent, wonderful, incredible woman”
Trump on who shot Ashli Babbitt: “I’ve heard also that it was the head of security for a certain high official. A Democrat. It’s gonna come out.”
Maria Bartiromo strongly hints that someone associated with Chuck Schumer shot Ashli Babbitt. Completely irresponsible stuff.
Trump basically confirms he’ll be running for POTUS in 2024 and says he thinks CNN and MSNBC will endorse him because their ratings are down
OLD: The 1/6 commission should investigate antifa
NEW: The 1/6 commission should investigate lies about the 2020 election being rigged
BARTIROMO: They continue to call this an armed insurrection, and yet no guns were seized
TRUMP: Right
(Weapons seized included stun guns, pepper spray, baseball bats, flagpoles wielded as clubs, pipe bombs were planted … )
