This was domestic terrorism - aided and abetted by Donald J Trump.
This is the result of populist passions stoked for more than four years by
Trump and his enablers in the media and and in the government. This is the end
result of a political movement nurtured by endless manipulations of the truth
by those enablers.
And it continues:
...fight to ensure that only legal votes were counted. While this represents the end of the greatest first term in presidential history, it’s only the beginning of our fight to Make America Great Again!”

The "facts bear me out" - what the fuck does THAT mean? Does he STILL believe he won? Does he STILL believe the "election was stolen" from him and his followers?
Yes, of course he does. And that's probably why you don't see the word "concede" in that statement.
Anyone who ever supported Donald Trump's presidency bears some responsibility for yesterday. No one gets to whitewash their complicity. No one. If you supported the noxious idea that there was voter fraud, you're complicit. If you defended him during his impeachment, you're complicit. If you're among the "yay" votes here, you're complicit. If you were at a rally to "stop the steal", you're complicit.
But complicity and responsibility are not the same thing. Donald Trump is responsible for yesterday. And he should be tried and convicted to the fullest extent of the law.
Lock HIM up. Now.
