I would be satisfied if people could simply accept that Democrats went overboard with weak accusations, but that doesn't happen. some still think it happened.

Democrats went overboard. There was also legitimate reason for investigation. a lot of people are willing to admit these things.
Are you willing to admit what happened at the Capital happened bc the President was unwilling to accept defeat and fabricated a story about the election being stolen?

there were far more people at the Capitol that wanted to protest, even if not justified.
Trump should not have been relentless with what he said, but it's debatable what impact that had and how his words inspired or incited people to be violent, for those that could easily be manipulated.
if Trump is to be held accountable for them being gullible, then the standard should be the same for the other side that had much worse words. Hillary Clinton literally said you can't be civil with Republicans. if Trump (or Cruz) is what inspired/incited rioting, then why not question if Hillary's words inspired/incited Republican baseball field to be shot up where Steve Scalise was shot, or when Rand Paul was attacked by his neighbor. what is the standard. maybe those idiots were also easily manipulated.
we can't have an honest conversation around here because Trump is orange man bad responsible for everything, while these Democrats are responsible for nothing.
the reason people were inspired to be there was from what Trump said. nobody would deny that. but that doesn't mean he inspired or incited the violence.
I could come up with multiple comparisons from the other side.
if people are inspired to protest for Black Lives Matter and then some are rioting and violent, should all of BLM be held accountable? of course not.
both sides accused the other side of cheating, or stealing the election.
even if there were different factors the nonsense about what happened continued, and after the 2016 election it went on for years.
actual Democrats refused to attend Trump's Inauguration because he was an "illegitimate" President, despite that not being reality.
With the way he is arguing this topic, I'd venture that Special would claim there's no difference between a war hero that killed dozens of enemy soldiers and a serial killer that killed dozens of people.
We also can’t forget that Trump just about as little as is possible while the insurrection was occurring. That is just as damning as anything else he did to spur this on before hand long and short term.
