“Do you realize what you are defending?” is just a tactic to shut down a conversation you don’t feel like having.
Because that's what this conversation is about. A murderous mob sic'd on Congress by the President because he didn't like losing an election. So again, to all the people defending this action, do you realize what you are defending?
And I'm happy to have this conversation. Folks want to minimize Trump's lies that directly lead to the deaths of 5 people, one of which was a cop beaten to death by his mob, then yes, let's have this conversation.
