Context ALWAYS matters and it is the first thing people strip away to make false comparisons or distort what someone says. It happens with Trump as well (the very fine people statement).
In the interview Colbert was asking her about the her participation in the DC protest, her advocacy for police reform and the criminal justice system. No discussion of riots. The statement you claim is a call for violence came at tbe end of the interview. you watched the clip, you would realize that. Not only that, she had on at least two prior occasions specifically condemned the riots.
Compare that with the context of Trump’s rally. It was an hour long speech, preceded by months of planning, inflammatory rhetoric, the airing of grievance and claims of injustice on his supporters, reiterations of how the election was being stolen from THEM, and then the was rally itself. There was no attempt to calm the crowd of thousands of supporters and it’s finale was a March on the Capitol. Where was Trump’s condemnation of violence…? Not until hours later, and he had been watching it unfold on television!
So how is that comparable?
"You don't concede when there's theft involved. Our country has had enough. We will not take it anymore."
"You will have an illegitimate president. That is what you will have, and we can't let that happen."
'If you don't fight like hell you're not going to have a country anymore'
Now here is the context.
Trump was speaking to a crowd of passionate supporters he had been whipping up for weeks. “Big protest in DC on January 6th. Be there, will be wild!”
Harris was talking in an interview with Colbert about the Floyd protests.
Exactly my point. That is one example where his statement was snipped out of a larger context and unfairly distorted. Now apply that to Harris.
Or…apply that to Trump’s J6 rally where you pick the one reference to “peaceful” from the larger context that is whipping up supporters.
Yes! Again, I have made that point. Like the Floyd protests, the vast majority of those at the J6 rally stopped short of the Capitol, turned back, went home.
Did Trump say or do anything to stop the others?
What did Trump FIBALLY tell those who ransacked the Capitol? That they were special, he loved them, go home. Hours later.
The first part of accountability is honesty…yes people are accountable for their own actions, but that doesn’t absolve those who deliberately sought to rile them up and then aim them at a target.
Words have power in certain situations. Trump knows this.

Hey, you're the one claiming it was two different groups of people.You know nothing factual about it as always....
That’s been done. The video is posted in this thread. She clearly encouraged the rioters to continue. But you’re a partisan hack who doesn’t respect the facts.
Protesters should continue their constitutional right.She did encourage them. She even said that they should not stop.
Even I agree, I think its time for trump to pack it up. Regardless of whether or not he has a legitimate case, we are seeing that the courts are not going to rule in his favor. This latest scotus ruling seems to be a telegraph that they are not having any of it. •••• He should show everyone he can be the bigger man and go ahead and concede, for the benefit of a smooth transition. He doesn't need to be defiant til the end. When you see that things are not going to go your way, you can keep running into brick walls, or face reality and try to make it easier on yourself, and everyone else.
Peaceful, lawful protestors were not arrested. Law breaking, violent protestors that engage in riots were arrested. Kamala Harris promoted a bail fund for those arrested- that is, the violent rioters.Protesters should continue their constitutional right.
Rioters, taking advantage of the protests, should stop their criminal acts!
It was....there were 24 million peaceful protesters against Floyd's murder protesting through out cities in the Nation.Hey, you're the one claiming it was two different groups of people.
People were arrested for civil disobedience, silly one!Peaceful, lawful protestors were not arrested. Law breaking, violent protestors that engage in riots were arrested. Kamala Harris promoted a bail fund for those arrested- that is, the violent rioters.

You a MAGA devotee saw a SCOTUS ruling on December 8 2020 against Trump as representing law and order in this country.
Trump sees himself above law and order and conducted himself practically criminally insane in public while internally conspiring with many internally to reject the will of the people that was upheld by the USSC including his three picks who wanted no part of his sore loser insanity.
Why are you defending him now with your fraudulent whataboutism against Harris?
Does MAGA as a cult have that much power over your mind? How does Trump control your mind the way he does. Are you into being saved by a messiah in your religion and politics? What is it?
They arrested all the rioters? Of course some of the protestors went home, but many stayed and rioted. Trying to act like one set went home and another set came in is foolish.It was....there were 24 million peaceful protesters against Floyd's murder protesting through out cities in the Nation.
There were around 10000 arrest during the same months of both civil disobedience and of the rioters that came out at night.
You are duped, lawless, unintelligent, MAGA liars if you saw what the cult leader did and said on January 6th 2021 but continue devoting loyalty and lying for the anti-American criminal enterprise that is MAGA with 100s of criminal indictments and convictions against the entire lot of it’s criminal co-conspirators. Don’t forget the co-conspirator DumbAshley Babbitt who had to be shot dead to stop her violent criminal assault on our right to have our votes be counted and secured and under no threat of a MAGA madman and his violent thugs in organized weaponization of a mob.Please call us MAGA again.
It illustrates so clearly how terrified you are of what's coming.
Do it again!
She did the same thing Trump did - encourage protestors. The difference is that Trump said to be peaceful,
WHen did Trump?
Show where and how the only ones bailed out by the fund Harris supported were arrested for civil disobedience?People were arrested for civil disobedience, silly one!
They arrested all the rioters? Of course some of the protestors went home, but many stayed and rioted. Trying to act like one set went home and another set came in is foolish.
“There’s no question — none — that President Trump is practically and morally responsible for provoking the events of the day. No question about it. The people who stormed this building believed they were acting on the wishes and instructions of their president,” McConnell said. “The leader of the free world cannot spend weeks thundering that shadowy forces are stealing our country and then feign surprise when people believe him and do reckless things.”
When a protestor joins or participates in a riot they cease to be protesters - they are rioters and when they are caught they are prosecuted.Of course some of the protestors went home, but many stayed and rioted.
He is partisan but not really a hack like the MAGA Caucus. He is the reason Trump got 3 SC nominations filled by a simple majority. Part of the Neo-GOP Court where lying is not only okay but expected.One person's opinion, who normally you would trash as a partisan Hack - Moscow Mitch.
Funny.
Where as the people who were talking about the National Popular started no shit like the Trumpybear did. No secret plots. No twisting the arms of State Legislatures. No lying for months\years about massive multi state fraud.........Nope, none of that from Hillary. She conceded in the wee hours of the next morning and urges her followers to accept defeat.One person's opinion, who normally you would trash as a partisan Hack - Moscow Mitch.
Funny.
Same people with a different label. Listening to the usual suspects, one is led to believe they think one group left and another took their place. Tis folly.When a protestor joins or participates in a riot they cease to be protesters - they are rioters and when they are caught they are prosecuted.
Millions of Americans are and were peaceful protestors some of then engage in civil disobedience and get arrested. They are not rioters and they hate rioters just like anybody else because violence c and looting and wanton destruction of property harms the cause that is being protested .
Trump’s protestors cause on Jan6 was to stay in power after losing the power constitutionally required to be transferred to Joe Biden.
There is no nobility of cause in MAGA’s blind servitude to Trump unless you believe fascism is noble somehow.
