Washington Post: “Appearing at a town hall hosted by Univision, Trump was confronted by a self-identified Republican named Ramiro González who cast Trump’s actions surrounding Jan. 6 as a dealbreaker for him. González challenged Trump to win his support.”
“But Trump made no apologies for that day. What he instead did was actually link himself to the rioters — stronger than he ever has before.”
Said Trump: “There were no guns down there; we didn’t have guns… The others had guns, but we didn’t have guns.”
“The first thing to note is that’s false; Trump supporters did have guns and many other weapons. But also consider what Trump has done rhetorically. He cast the insurrectionists as a ‘we.’”
