Riot? What riot?
Sean Hannity did an entire show in February, which made the dual argument that Antifa was more responsible for the violence and the vandalism at the Capitol on January 6th than Trump supporters were (even calling it a "false flag operation"), and that the mainstream media had also blown the events of January 6th out of proportion in order to make Republicans look bad.
As far as Sean Hannity's theory is concerned, if he honestly believed that it was members of Antifa who were rioting, what good was texting Mark Meadows going to do? I don't think Trump has much pull with them.
The point of this thread, is that those Fox News hosts are a bunch of phonies, who make disingenuous arguments on the air, which they don't truly believe. Fox News is pure propaganda, and spin-doctoring.
