Legal Expert Clears The Air, ‘Trump Is Not Guilty Of Inciting A Riot’Legal expert weighs in on the charges being leveled against President Trump. Pretty sure they will go nowhere.. just smoke. The president didn’t commit incitement or any other crime. I should know. As a Washington prosecutor I earned the nickname “protester prosecutor” from the antiwar group CodePink. In one trial, I convicted 31 protesters who disrupted congressional traffic by obstructing the Capitol Crypt. In another, I convicted a CodePink activist who smeared her hands with fake blood, charged at then-Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice in a House hearing room, and incited the audience to seize the secretary of state physically. In other cases, I dropped charges when the facts fell short of the legal standard for incitement. One such defendant was the antiwar activist Cindy Sheehan.

31 unruly protestors...
There WAS NO RIOT!
300,000 Trump supporters showed up for the protest.
If that many had rioted, DC would look like Hiroshima.

From the Title 18 of the U.S. Code
As used in this chapter, the term “to incite a riot”, or “to organize, promote, encourage, participate in, or carry on a riot”, includes, but is not limited to, urging or instigating other persons to riot, but shall not be deemed to mean the mere oral or written (1) advocacy of ideas or (2) expression of belief, not involving advocacy of any act or acts of violence...

Don't matter. He will be impeached, won't go anywhere though.
We know he scares the hell out of the left ( along with our numbers) and with the cancel culture going on with business donations to trump supporters, rino's will and have been caving.

This is all a witch hunt time delay for the dummyrats. They haven’t got a clue how to do anything to help this country nor do the want to. They are stalling and trying to make themselves appear important by running down others. Very immature and childish when a rational thought is in your capabilities.

Don't need a lawyer for that. This is just the latest fabricated reality from the prince of darkness party.
Progressives are the most open minded, tolerant, and inclusive people on the planet, as long as you agree with everything they say, and do exactly as you're told.

Was it a riot? Maybe not, but it definitely was violent enough that it resulted in multiple dead. But the idea President Trump was "responsible" for the handful of rogue actors in a crowd of several hundred thousand is ludicrous.
