Far-right extremists who answered Donald Trump’s call to fight and “take back” their country after it was “stolen” from them in November are furious with the president after he issued a video urging calm and no more violence following the storming of the Capitol that left five dead.
As Huffington Post notes: “On January 6, during a Trump-promoted rally to ‘Stop the Steal,’ thousands laid siege to the US Capitol in a stunning attempt to do just that.
The fallout of their failed insurrection, which resulted in five deaths, was swift: Trump was de-platformed from nearly every major social network and, on Wednesday, impeached for a historic second time.
