I think, basically, this is about power. I think he wants to cripple Joe Biden before he ever gets started.
Sadly, you know, I think for a variety of reasons he should not. I just, I don't think either Trump or Biden should be running.
You can stand up and say we shouldn't be doing this because it's unconstitutional. Therefore, I never have to come to say whether I agree or disagree whether he incited the riot.
