Well, I think, certainly, the two things, the suggesting that he would provide pardons for the January 6th defendants and, again, we know that the number of those people have been charged with seditious conspiracy. And also the acknowledgement that he was, in fact, attempting to overturn the election. Those two things really demonstrate what his intention was. They demonstrate what he would do if he were given the chance again.
