“If I run and if I win, we will treat those people from January 6th fairly,” Trump said Saturday night during a rally.
Conroe, Texas — Former President Donald Trump is dangling the prospect of pardons for supporters who participated in the deadly if he returns to the White House. “If I run and if I win, we will treat those people from January 6th fairly,” Trump said Saturday night during a rally in Conroe, Texas. “And if it requires pardons, we will give them pardons because they are being treated so unfairly.” The offer represents an attempt by Trump to further minimize the most significant attack on the seat of government since the War of 1812. Participants smashed through windows, assaulted police officers and sent lawmakers and congressional staff fleeing for their lives while trying to halt the peaceful transition of power and the certification of President Biden’s victory.
