Trump’s Alleged Motive In Inciting the Jan. 6 Riots Is Focus Of Sp. Counsel.

Special Counsel Jack Smith’s team outlined the evidence it has collected against former President Trump on Tuesday, walking through information it says will showcase his motive and knowledge of a plan to block the transfer of power.

The breakdown comes in a request to introduce evidence of events both before and after the conspiracy outlined in Trump’s indictment, an effort to “establish his motive, intent, preparation, knowledge” and plans related to his efforts to stay in power.

Donald Trump is barreling towards the GOP nomination for President as his indictments wind their way through the criminal process. Donald Trump has a disdain for democracy that even he would admit especially when elections don’t favor him or the candidates he endorses. When democracy doesn’t yield the desired results then it’s ‘election fraud’. These claims of fraud go to the heart of American Democracy and the peaceful transfer of power that has always set us apart. Some people just don’t care.
