A lot of different elements led to the riot at the U.S. Capitol last week: Trump’s specific incitement leading up to and on January 6th, false arguments from Trump and many Republicans that the election was fraudulent, white nationalism, militia movements on and offline, a lack of preparation from law enforcement and more. In this installment of the Genesis Brand Politics podcast, the crew unpacks some of the elements responsible. They also discuss the calculations being made by Democrats and Republicans about how to hold President Trump legally and/or politically accountable for the attack.
