Richard Blumenthal actually said...
What`s on trial here is not just Donald Trump. It`s the mob that he summoned to Washington, incited to assault the Capitol, stop the vote counting, and even possibly assassinate members of the United States Congress, and to continue this domestic terrorism against our democracy.
Context
Blumenthal asserts that the trial is about more than Trump; it involves the mob violence he incited.
