Stop trying to make the Capitol riot into a race issue

A violent mob breached the U.S. Capitol building this week after President Trump directed them personally to march on the People’s House during a joint session of Congress to protest the results of the 2020 election.

“We’re going to walk down Pennsylvania Avenue,” the president said Wednesday during an address to his supporters. “We’re going to the Capitol, and we’re going to try and give … our Republicans, the weak ones, because the strong ones don’t need any of our help, we’re going to try and give them the kind of pride and boldness that they need to take back our country.”
