    Not sure it's been posted yet but Vice News posted a video of Trump's January 6th speech with footage from the days events... Followed by his remorseful speech. It needs to be played during his impeachment hearing and all Representatives and Senators need to watch it. I am sure there is nothing new here yet this is the first speech of his i listened to in it's entirety in years as my usual response to news about him and or his rallies is F this guy. This was a Hitler-esque performance and truly chilling. He wound up his terrrorists with flattery and bravado just like Hitler would then turned them loose on than Capitol. Again this man is a danger to society and not to be laughed off. He feeds the id of the White Nationalists and the Radical Right in a manner we have not seen since Hitler.
