That’s Trump, referring to the January 6th rally. A bunch of those loving, friendly people marched up to the Capitol to hunt down Nancy Pelosi and hang Mike Pence but he felt it was a beautiful time anyway:
Former President Donald Trump called January 6, the day of the Capitol riot, “a very beautiful time” in a March interview with ABC News correspondent Jonathan Karl, according to Karl’s forthcoming book.
During the interview at his Mar-a-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Trump praised the supporters who attended his speech in which he urged his loyalists to march to the Capitol and protest Congress’ certification of then-President-elect Joe Biden’s victory.
When Karl asked Trump why he tweeted, “Remember this day forever,” hours after the deadly riot, Trump told him that Jan. 6 was “a very beautiful time with extremely loving and friendly people — the largest crowd that I’ve ever spoken before — with tremendous spirit. And I’m referring to that.”
Trump went on, “I’m referring to when I made a speech which was perfectly fine. Some people thought it was mild-mannered …. it was a relatively mind-mannered speech.”
Karl said he wasn’t expecting Trump to express remorse for his role in inciting the deadly mob, but that he was shocked at how the former president recalled the day with pride.
“I was taken aback by how fondly he remembers a day I will always remember as one of the darkest I have ever witnessed,” Karl writes in “Betrayal: The Final Act of the Trump Show,” an advanced copy of which was obtained by Insider.
Trump also insisted that “the fake news” didn’t report on the large size of the crowd on the National Mall.
“When I made that speech, it was a magnificently beautiful day,” he told Karl. “They never gave the credit to the size of the crowd when the crowd went all the way back to the Washington Monument.”
Trump conceded that the day was “marred by what took place” after his speech.
Even now, in spite of everything that happened, death and destruction, a riotous insurrection he’s still complaining that nobody gives him credit for his crowd size !!!!
This man is the frontrunner for the 2024 election and if the press has their way, he will win.
