'Donald Trump blamed the Jan. 6 riots on former vice president Mike
Pence, saying that the Capitol insurrection could have been avoided if
his sidekick would have just helped him overturn the election.
"Had he sent the votes back to the legislatures, they wouldn't have had
a problem with Jan. 6, so in many ways you can blame him for Jan. 6,"
Trump told reporters today on his personal plane that was headed to Iowa,'

That kind of destroys the whole "it was just a guided tour" narrative,
doesn't it.
'The former twice-impeached president was responding to critical remarks
made on Saturday by Mike Pence, who finally had the guts to admit that
Trump was responsible for the attack on the Capitol (funny how eyeing
the presidential race as a potential contender can finally get a meek
sycophant to pipe up).
"Make no mistake about it. What happened that day was a disgrace," Pence
said at the Gridiron dinner in Washington D.C. "And I know that history
will hold Donald Trump accountable."'
What? A peaceful, guided tour was a "disgrace"?
