This ^^^^ has become a frequently repeated lie by Trump apologists.
Per Christopher Miller, the acting Secretary of Defense in January of 2021 ...
On January 3rd, then-President Donald Trump inquired about the possibility of National Guard troops being deployed in order to protect pro-Trump "Stop the Steal" protestors during his planned rally on January 6th ... but Trump's inquiry wasn't taken seriously, much less acted upon. Nancy Pelosi would not have had the jurisdiction to decline such an order from the sitting President. The link below addresses this :
Trump wanted troops to protect his supporters at Jan. 6 rally
There is no evidence that then-President Donald Trump recommended bringing in the National Guard as a means of protecting the United States Capitol from his "Stop the Steal" protestors. The link below addresses that, as well :
https://www.washingtonpost.com/poli...-not-order-10000-troops-secure-capitol-jan-6/
These are two fact-checks by non-partisan sources (Newsweek and USA Today) :
Fact Check: Did Trump call in the National Guard after rioters stormed the Capitol?
Fact check: Trump did not request 10,000 Guard troops for Jan. 6
This makes at least the 4th time that I have de-bunked this same lie. It's getting old.
People have a disagreement with the Insurrection narrative in the first place. That's the 1st issue. Then the 2nd is an obscure individual who no on3 probably provides important info claiming she knows something for the attention.
Really? Nothing from that post you replied to was based strictly on my opinion. That post included 4 links to well-known, national, print-journalism, news organizations such as Reuters, The Washington Post, Newsweek and USA Today. NOTHING was simply my opinion.You're either ignorant, a hack or both.
The post that I was replying to, strongly implied that then-President Donald Trump had "recommended" that National Guard troops be brought in to protect the Capitol on January 6th, but Nancy Pelosi had (presumably?) rebuffed then-President Donald Trump's supposed recommendation. That simply isn't true.The remaining articles you should know Trump has no jurisdiction over the capital. The first article even mentions local law enforcement telling the defense department they didn't need the support.
My comment had far broader application.
If you’d like to discuss it as it relates to January 6th… If a Republican congressman wants an investigation does that make him worthy of derision and censure?
Yes. Please do.When it's been investigated and Trump was found of doing nothing wrong, then yes. I can go back and find the sources of when Trump qas cleared of it makes you feel better.

As those bottom 3 links point out, the evidence only shows that then-President Donald Trump had made inquiries to the acting- Secretary of Defense, Christopher Miller, about bringing in National Guard troops to protect his own "Stop the Steal" protestors during his January 6th rally in front of the White House. There was no altruistic effort made by then-President Donald Trump with his "recommendation" to Christopher Miller. It was, in fact, a completely self-serving agenda, consistent with how Donald Trump had served as President up to that point.
It's not what tell you it's what they don't. Mindless drones normally go by what they tell you.
BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!
I'm supposed to be swayed by an interview that Rep. Jim Jordan did with Sean Hannity? Are you serious? WTF?!?!?!
Which one of us is the hack here? I post links to Reuters, The Washington Post, Newsweek and USA Today.... and you post a video to a Trump-loving House Rep. doing an interview with a Trump-loving opinion show host on a Trump-loving cable news network.
That's rich, man! This Bud's for you! LOL!!!!
You probably do believe that InfoWars, Breitbart, The Gateway Pundit, OAN, NewsMax, Fox News, The Federalist, The New York Post and The Daily Caller have more journalistic integrity than the Associated Press, Reuters, Business Insider, ABC News, The Washington Post, Time, Newsweek, USA Today, The Wall Street Journal, PBS and NPR, don't you?Most of your sources are suspect but this is typical of your posts.
Of course he does, but he won't admit it. He is one of millions who have been thoroughly gaslighted.You probably do believe that InfoWars, Breitbart, The Gateway Pundit, OAN, NewsMax, Fox News, The Federalist, The New York Post and The Daily Caller have more journalistic integrity than the Associated Press, Reuters, Business Insider, ABC News, The Washington Post, Time, Newsweek, USA Today, PBS and NPR, don't you?
That explains a lot.
