The House impeachment managers presented a case that was clear, convincing and compelling. And it may -- it was obvious that those individuals who Donald Trump radicalized some into Washington incited and then told the mob to march on the Capitol were there to do bad things, like assassinate Nancy Pelosi, hang Mike Pence and hunt down members of Congress. That`s not hyperbole. Those are cold blooded facts that were put on display at the trial today.
