" #Trump made possible the lawlessness. After he lost the 2020 election, he spent weeks peddling the #lie that he had rightfully won. He encouraged state officials to “find” votes for him or simply appoint electors loyal to him. He tried to pressure Pence not to certify the result. In a final attempt to subvert #democracy & overturn the election, Trump’s supporters went to Washington on #Jan6."
