Trump’s lead impeachment attorney said Friday he’ll call out Democrats for « inflammatory rhetoric » during last summer’s racial justice movement.
Former President Donald Trump’s lead impeachment attorney Bruce Castor said Friday that he intends to use video footage to call out Democrats for « inflammatory rhetoric » during the impeachment trial next week. Speaking on Fox News’ The Ingraham Angle, Castor said that he’ll be using video content to show Democrats « cheered on » protesters during last summer’s racial justice movement, in response to accusations that Trump incited the violent riots at the U.S. Capitol on January 6. « There’s a lot of tape of cities burning and courthouses being attacked and federal agents being assaulted by rioters in the streets, cheered on by Democrats throughout the country, » he said. The attorney went on to say that « many [Democrats] in Washington are using really the most inflammatory rhetoric possible to use. And certainly there would be no suggestion that they did anything to incite any of the actions.
